At Flowers Barking, we believe that every beautiful bouquet should not only brighten someone’s day but also take care of our planet. As Barking’s preferred eco-friendly flower delivery service, we are proud to place sustainable practices at the centre of everything we do. Our community of customers and local businesses have shown us how much sustainability is valued across Barking, inspiring us to constantly seek ways to minimise our environmental impact.
We understand that how your flowers are delivered is just as important as the flowers themselves. Our low-carbon delivery vans play a vital role in our effort to reduce emissions within Barking and surrounding areas. These state-of-the-art vans are designed to be fuel efficient and release far lower emissions than traditional delivery vehicles. By choosing Flowers Barking, you are supporting a local service dedicated to reducing its environmental footprint.
Presentation matters, but so does the planet. That’s why we are committed to only using packaging that is eco-friendly and carefully selected for its environmental credentials. Our signature flower wraps and boxes are made from recycled and fully recyclable materials, ensuring that nothing goes to waste unnecessarily. We avoid single-use plastics and include compostable options wherever possible. Every bouquet from Flowers Barking arrives in packaging you can feel good about—thoughtful for you, and kind to the earth.
Our selection of flowers is sourced as close to home as possible. Working closely with local growers and UK-based flower farms means we significantly reduce the miles your flowers travel before reaching Barking. This focus on local sourcing not only improves freshness and supports independent growers, but also helps to lower transport-related emissions. When sourcing exotic or out-of-season flowers, we choose Fairtrade-certified blooms wherever possible. Fairtrade flowers ensure that farmers overseas are paid fairly and that their communities benefit from ethical working standards—reflecting our belief in social as well as environmental sustainability.
We take pride in working with Barking’s flourishing business community and households alike. Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword here in Barking—it’s a value shared by offices, retailers, event planners, and residents who want to make better choices for the environment without sacrificing on style or quality. Our eco-friendly flower delivery Barking service is perfectly suited to anyone who wants their flowers to reflect their commitment to the planet.
Sustainability is a journey, and we are constantly exploring new ways to improve. From trialling new packaging innovations, to increasing the proportion of local and Fairtrade blooms in our collections, our promise is to grow with Barking’s demand for responsible, beautiful flowers. Whether you’re marking a special occasion or decorating your business, choose Flowers Barking for a greener, more sustainable tomorrow.
If you value sustainability as much as we do—and as much as so many in Barking already do—then you’ll find Flowers Barking is the perfect choice for eco-friendly floral deliveries. With every bouquet, together, we’re helping make Barking a more beautiful and environmentally conscious place to live and work.
