EcotricityWe now (October 2012) receive our gas and electric supplies from the pioneering company, Ecotricity, who was the world's first green electricity company and also launched the concept of Green Gas in Britain in 2010. They supplied the first green gas that year (from Holland) - but, according to their website, www.ecotricity.co.uk, they're "working hard to establish Green Gasmills as a major energy source for the UK". The company has also established a fast-growing network of charging facilities for electric cars at Welcome Break service stations across Britain. We're signed up to Green Energy Plus, which gives us 100% green energy supply - electricity from windmills and gas from renewable sources!! We encourage householders and businesses to switch to Ecotricity www.ecotricity.co.uk and support this wonderful effort towards a sustainable future for us all. Another added benefit for customers of Aromantic is that if Aromantic is greener, so is your company!

Aromantic's policy on purchasing raw materials is based on a holistic perspective, which considers the products we source and stock in relation to nature and to people. We believe that we can make a difference in the world by sourcing products and raw materials that nourish and sustain both the producers and our customers and to contribute to the demand for products that conserve our precious resources and are as environmentally friendly as possible. In order to be part of a positive cycle of change that respects nature and people and improves the ability of future generations to sustain themselves, we give priority to raw materials that have been fairly traded or ethically sourced from:
and that are:
Our direct suppliersOf course, we can't be everywhere at once so we choose our ethical intermediate suppliers very carefully. These suppliers have direct contact in many cases with the communities and projects that our products are sourced from. Our main organic essential oil supplier, for example, personally visits these small communities and projects around the world and keep in close contact with them. This same supplier is one of the first companies with Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) non-timber products certification for essential oils. We accept fairly traded products from our supplier even if the producer has not been certified as being FairTrade. This is because our hard-working and dedicated supplier continually visits the projects and for us that is good enough. Small projects that are often rural as well are too burdened to cope with the paperwork required to obtain and maintain the FairTrade certification. Aromantic, as a small company understands this, we too are too small just now to be certified either. To see Aromantic's Natural, Organic, Ethical and Fairly traded Purchasing Policy, click here. Some examples of Aromantic products that have been sourced from Community Co-operatives, Projects or Traditional Communities through our responsible and ethical supplierMany of our products have been fairly traded or sourced from community and co-operative projects e.g. most of our organic essential oils are fairly traded from community projects around the world see individual listings of our Organic Essential Oils for more information.

At the end of the harvest season, the growers now receive a fair trade premium, so earning more than 90% of the global market price as opposed to less than 40% they received when selling directly to exporters.
