As part of the V&A’s commitment to the environment, the V&A shop always aims to source merchandise from reputable and responsible suppliers, favouring those that are ethically and ecologically minded. The V&A shop is proudly championing local industry by working with UK designers and manufacturers where possible, as well as supporting artisans and social enterprises from all over the world. In an effort to reduce waste, your online order will be sent using reused and recyclable materials wherever possible. We also aim to improve our shops’ environmental impact by working with our suppliers to switch to more sustainable materials, such as organic cotton or FSC approved paper, and by reviewing packaging solutions wherever possible. This is a gradual process that we have placed at the very heart of everything we do.

Our paper padded bags are made from 100% recycled paper and can be recycled with mixed paper. Larger orders will be delivered in a re-used or recycled box as part of the V&A’s commitment to the environment, focusing on reducing its paper and cardboard consumption. The ‘green chips’ used in our boxes are 100% biodegradable and fully compostable eco-fill, this can be placed in your household recycling.

Frames are packaged in corrugated cardboard packaging, which as well as having an element of recycled material in it, is 100% recyclable.

If you purchased a new battery powered product from our website and want us to dispose of a similar old product for you, please return the old item in person or by post within 28 days of your purchase to the following address.
