OUR SUSTAINABILITY COMMITMENT
MAKING AN IMPACT
We recognize the importance of supporting long-term ecological balance. We are reducing our eco-footprint by actively expanding the use of recycled and recovered components, parts, and materials in our manufacturing process. The result is not a “used” product, but a product that meets the Sheffield LABS testing standards and is made in a better, environmentally friendly way.
COMPONENTRY
By using recycled batteries, plastics, metal, and component parts, we avoid adding these items into the landfills and reducing our environmental impact. Our goal is to reduce our footprint and still bring you the same great quality product.
We are a lighting-focused company, and LED illumination is only the beginning. We have many products Energy Star-certified, with the total count rising annually.
At Sheffield LABS we strive to bring the latest in innovations to the masses rather than the classes and the name itself carries a promise of inventive ingenuity, affordable accessibility, and the goal of a better, easier life for everyone.
PACKAGING
We understand that our impact doesn’t stop once our products are produced. How we package and ship them matters as well. That’s why we've invested in eco-friendly packaging, drastically reduced our use of plastics and other non-biodegradable materials and are aiming to have all categories produced in beautiful packaging that is 100% recycled and recyclable.
As of 2022, we have begun a complete transition to have our packaging inserts swapped out to recycled pulp-molded fiber, which is fully biodegradable and recyclable, along with a total elimination of non-recyclable foam across our entire product lineup. We have also implemented a reduction in the use of non-essential plastics for all packaging parts with the goal of completely plastic-free packaging by 2025.
INDUSTRY-LEADING CERTIFICATION
We are proud to call our products certified by - and ourselves members of - some of the leading global organizations at the forefront of quality control, energy efficiency, and sustainable sourcing & development across the United States, Canada, Mexico and Latin America. Everything from product materials to packaging are subject to region-specific testing based on the destination, while our own standardized testing is conducted annually and is designed to exceed industry standards for global distribution.
PARTNERS & SUPPLIERS
Supply chain and logistics present challenges due to their intricate dependencies, making change implementation complex and time-intensive.
We take pride in our suppliers' commitment to sustainability through various certifications and initiatives. mentioned above, while passing our own annual social compliance and sustainability audits through independent third parties .
This is undeniably a long-term, multi-stage process, and we aspire to make further advancements in the near future.
