People, Planet and Waste. 

Here at Bed, Bath & Beyond we believe that sustainability should be the core of every business. We demonstrate our commitment to this sentiment by focusing on three key areas: People, Planet and Waste.  

People: We are continuing to consolidate and build strong relationships with our manufactures. We also enforce our ethical trading policy. 

Planet: We are passionate about actively reducing our operational emissions and working with our freight, waste and manufacturers to ensure they are doing the same. 

Waste: BB&B has been particularly focused on our waste this year. We are working to improve our packaging, and ensure as much of our waste is being diverted away from landfill as we can.

Working hard to be waste free in Auckland and Beyond!

At BB&B we are starting our sustainability journey off with a bang by doing everything we can to reduce waste. All our Auckland stores are now “waste free” (more than 90% of our waste is diverted from landfill). We are currently using our Auckland stores as a model to ensure proper waste management and reduction strategies are created, so we can implement them across the country in the near future. Here at BB&B we know that reducing waste is key to being more sustainable. That is why we ensure all our products are made to last and with the utmost care. We are also working with our brilliant manufacturers to start reducing our packaging, so customers can take less plastic home. As our drivers deliver stock to our Auckland stores, they also pick up our carefully separated packaging waste. These drivers then transport the separated bubble wrap, pallet wrap, soft plastics, paper, cardboard, polystyrenes, and general waste back to our distribution center in Auckland for recycling, reuse, and disposal. At the Distribution center, we bail our cardboard, pallet wrap, and soft plastics so they can be sent to Oji Fibre and Future post for recycling. The cardboard we don’t bail gets shredded and used as a bubble wrap substitute that customers can recycle at home. We also use re-use the old bubble wrap to wrap products for our webstore. Our polystyrene is delivered to Expol to be turned into green beans. When customers order products online they can feel assured that we are using compostable courier bags and many other recyclable/ re-used protective materials, to ensure their items arrive safely without increasing our waste footprint by much. We are very proud of what we’ve achieved at BB&B, but we know our journey has just begun. Our next steps are to bring these systems to all our other stores to ensure BB&B is as green as can be.
