Sustainable Home Products

Finding a sustainable product shouldn’t be more difficult or cost more, and today, more of our compost is peat free more of our paint is water based and more of our power tools are energy efficient. 

44.1% of Kingfisher Group sales came from products and services that help create a more sustainable home in 2021/22. 

We have updated our Sustainable Home Product guidelines and published a new online guidebook, which address how products are made, what materials are used, customer use and end of life. 

Removing harmful chemicals

We aim to identify and phase out chemicals of concern ahead of regulation to protect customers, workers in our supply chain and the environment. To do this, we’re working with suppliers and partners focusing on three areas:

• Achieving transparency – Understanding which chemicals are used in which supply chains with a particular focus on textiles, plastics and chemical products (e.g. glues, paints, cleaning products)
• Phasing out hazardous and high-risk chemicals of concern
• Switching to more sustainable chemicals
