Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Policy

Effective Date: July 2025
Foldabox Limited 

Social Responsibility Statement

At Foldabox®, we are unwavering in our commitment to conducting business with integrity, transparency and fairness. Since our founding in 2005, we have been innovators, not imitators, dedicated to creating original, high-quality packaging solutions while fostering respectful, ethical partnerships at every level.

We believe that ethical business begins with people. Whether in daily operations or long-term strategy, we value clear, respectful dialogue and cultivate a workplace and supplier network built on appreciation, care, kindness, and fair-mindedness. Our internal culture encourages collaboration and accountability, while our external relationships are guided by honesty, mutual respect, and a genuine desire to do business in a better way.

We take pride in choosing partners and suppliers who share our values — especially around ethical labour, environmental responsibility, and product integrity. Foldabox® stands firmly against exploitation, unfair treatment, or any activity that undermines trust or sustainability.

Above all, we aim to lead by example: continuously raising standards in the packaging industry and proving that doing business ethically is not just possible — it’s profitable, sustainable, and deeply rewarding.

Purpose and Scope

This Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Policy outlines Foldabox's commitment to conducting business responsibly, ethically, and sustainably in the United Kingdom, United States, and all markets in which we operate.

This policy applies to all employees, suppliers, contractors, and partners of Foldabox Limited 

Environmental Responsibility

  • We aim to reduce our environmental impact by promoting responsible sourcing, recycling, and waste minimisation.

  • Our packaging products are made using certified materials and are fully recyclable and reusable.

  • We actively seek out suppliers and manufacturing partners who comply with robust environmental and ethical standards.

  • We strive to reduce carbon emissions through efficient logistics, minimal packaging waste, and smart global supply chain practices.

Ethical Sourcing and Supply Chain

  • We maintain long-term relationships with audited factories that comply with local labor laws and international ethical standards.

  • We do not tolerate any form of child labour, forced labour, or unsafe working conditions.

  • We prioritise partners who demonstrate a commitment to fair wages, safe workplaces, and ethical labour practices.

  • All vendors are required to confirm compliance with applicable environmental and labour regulations.

Community Engagement

  • We support local communities through charitable initiatives, product donations, and partnerships with organisations aligned with our values.

  • Foldabox encourages employee volunteering and will provide paid leave for staff participating in charitable or community-based projects.

  • In the UK and USA, we aim to support small businesses and independent brands that align with our values around craftsmanship, sustainability, and innovation.

Diversity, Equality and Inclusion

  • Foldabox is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace.

  • We do not discriminate on the basis of gender, race, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or any legally protected status.

  • All hiring, promotion, and compensation decisions are made based on merit, qualifications, and business needs.

Health and Safety

  • We strive to provide a safe and healthy working environment for all our employees.

  • All management staff work from home, reducing our carbon footprint and fostering a better work/life balance.

  • All facilities are maintained in compliance with applicable health and safety regulations.

  • We expect our suppliers and logistics partners to implement similarly high standards for workplace safety.

Compliance and Governance

  • Foldabox complies with all applicable UK, EU, and US laws, including modern slavery legislation (UK Modern Slavery Act 2015) and state-level equivalents in the USA.

  • We regularly review and update our policies to reflect evolving best practices in ethical business and environmental sustainability.

Communication and Training

  • This policy is made available on our websites and will be reviewed with new employees during onboarding.

  • Training is provided where necessary to ensure staff understand and implement the principles outlined in this policy.

Monitoring and Reporting

  • CSR performance is monitored through supplier audits, internal reviews, and employee feedback.

  • Any concerns regarding unethical practices may be reported anonymously via our designated email: csr@foldabox.co.uk or csr@foldaboxusa.com
