Our approach

Our focus is on understanding our impacts, identifying opportunities for improvement, and taking practical steps that support long-term progress. We recognise that sustainability is an ongoing process rather than a destination, and we are committed to being transparent about both our progress and the challenges we face.

Carbon Measurement & Transparency

Understanding our impact is the first step towards managing it.

Through our partnership with Seedling, iCandy has completed a baseline assessment to better understand emissions associated with our operations and value chain. This helps us identify areas of greatest impact, improve the quality of our environmental data and inform future decision-making.

As our understanding develops, we will continue to review our footprint and use this information to support ongoing improvement.

In 2025, our baseline came to 11,089 tCO₂e. Around 96.6% sits in our value chain (Scope 3), and purchased goods and services is the largest single category.

Our Partnership with Seedling

We work with Seedling to help measure and understand our environmental impact.

Product Longevity & iService

One way to reduce the environmental impact associated with products is to help them remain in use for longer.

Through iService, customers can access repairs, servicing and restoration support designed to help keep pushchairs in use for longer. By supporting product maintenance and reuse, iService forms part of our broader approach to product longevity and aftercare.

Reflecting our focus on durability, products manufactured from 1 April 2026 onwards are covered by a 10-year warranty. This extended warranty is designed to support long-term ownership and provide customers with confidence in the quality and longevity of their pushchair.

By combining durable product design with ongoing service and repair support, we aim to help customers get the most from their products throughout their lifespan.

Workplace Initiatives

Box Reuse

We encourage the reuse of suitable packaging within our operations where practical to do so. Our box reuse initiative helps reduce unnecessary packaging waste from day-to-day activities and reflects our commitment to embedding responsible practices throughout the business.

Cycle to Work

We support lower-impact commuting through our Cycle to Work scheme, helping employees choose active travel where it is practical for them to do so. The programme also supports employee wellbeing and offers colleagues an alternative commuting option.

Governance & Accountability

ISO 14001 certified

Environmental responsibility is supported through our ISO 14001-certified environmental management system and guided by our cross-functional IMPACT Team.

The team brings together colleagues from across the business to review initiatives, encourage engagement and support the ongoing development of our environmental objectives and management processes.

Progress, Not Perfection

We recognise that the environmental impacts associated with our business are complex and that progress takes time.

Our approach is to measure, understand and improve wherever possible, while openly sharing our progress. We believe transparency, accountability and continuous improvement are more valuable than making claims that cannot be substantiated.
