Sustainable Home Products can help to lower environmental impact. They have features that are sustainable and/or deliver sustainable benefits to our customers.

49.4% of Kingfisher Group sales came from products & services that help create a more sustainable home in 2023/24.

Kingfisher defines the criteria for Sustainable Home Products based on:

product made
Sustainable Home Products integrate with our ambition to address climate change through reducing carbon emissions embodied in our products and​ emitted when our customers use and dispose of our products​.
product made
Under each principle, there are Sustainability Attributes. Each attribute has detailed eligibility criteria, features and benefits derived from sources including the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Science Based Targets Initiative.
product made
As well as defining positive attributes, there are Watch List Attributes, specifying types of product​ that are sold but cannot be considered to be sustainable.

Group sourcing

Over time, Kingfisher banners and group sourcing​ are developing ranges that are more sustainable.​

Every year, the percentage of sales from products and services that meet these Guidelines is reported as a key part of Kingfisher’s Responsible Business strategy.

All products and services are assessed, including vendor branded and banner sourced lines.

The Guidelines are available online.
