Sustainability / environmental stewardship

Talasey is committed to responsible trading, the environment and ensuring product quality with full testing and relevant accreditations.

When it comes to our Natural Paving range, we are active members of the Ethical Stone Register, and support and invest heavily in our supply chain and the people that work in it. In India, we work closely with our natural stone supply chain to ensure ethical sourcing and have great relationships with our quarries and factory partners. We prioritize worker well-being and safety standards, along with supporting local charitable initiatives.

We are passionate about the responsible sourcing of our raw materials, as demonstrated by our FSC Certification, as Talasey are FSC®* certified (*FSC, the mark of responsible forestry. FSC® C154335). By offering Piranha composite materials we are helping to take care of the world’s forests. Piranha composite products are made from a mixture of: 60% Hardwood Timber, 30% Recycled HDPE Plastic Materials and 10% Additives, meaning that for every 323 deck boards manufactured, we save 1000kg of plastic from polluting our oceans or landfill.

Our Pavetuf Priming Slurry is more eco-friendly with reduced carbon content and comes in a choice of a 17kg tub (100% recyclable) or a 25kg bag (a greener alternative to the tub option). Plus our Pavetuf pallets come wrapped with a 30% recycled plastic wrap, helping us further shrink our carbon footprint.

Our Vitripiazza Bellezza/Anno Lite porcelain paving packaging has also been reduced as these are thinner pavers (16mm), this also allows for more packs per load, reducing emissions used from transportation.
