Sustainability And Social Responsibility
Our Packaging and Materials
Supporting Sustainable and Conscious Jewellery Practices:
Sustainability and being kinder to the earth is an urgent issue for our world today. Consumerism has driven waste and pollution. Here at Lu and Mol, we try our very best to ensure our business practices align with our own values, by taking care of mother Earth whilst still providing you with the best quality services and pieces. From our packaging to the brands we carefully hand-pick to stock, good ethics is always at our forefront.
-Our in house brand Liwu Jewellery is Made in Ireland with sustainably sourced materials. We use recycled silver and gold for all our jewellery products. Eco Silver and Gold are recycled from old jewellery, medical devices and batteries. They are still pure and hallmarked in Dublin Castle for your reassurance.
We use bio-degradable shipping bags for our online orders and cardboard instead of bubble wrap
Our gift wrapping is bio-degradable and made of fully recycled paper
Our beautiful boxes are made of recycled cardboard and fully biodegradable
Our ribbon is made from recycled plastic bottles.
Our wholesale orders are dispatched in boxes we have received in the business from other suppliers and from our own personal shopping. We aim to reuse everything!
We OFFSET the carbon emissions by donating a percentage of each sale to sustainability initiatives to counteract the environmental impact of shipping. We use Shopify OFFSET who work with Pachama to contribute to certified projects, complying with the best-in-class carbon offset protocols and standards.
Where possible we source all materials, wrapping and boxes through Irish suppliers to support more local businesses and employment.
Kind to Others
Supporting International, National and Local Organisations
We are a small business but it's important for us to support non-profit organisations which make a big difference to our communities and to the world. While we wish we could support more organisations, we endeavour to support at least one international, one national and one local organisation every year.
Inspiring kindness and thoughtful gifting
We can express kindness in many ways a smile or a friendly hello, letting someone out in traffic, offering someone a lift in your car etc etc, but also through a thoughtful gift.
To help you choose the perfect thoughtful gift, we choose symbols that inspire and express a beautiful meaning to design jewellery that lasts a lifetime.
