Battle Green

Based in Eryri, North Wales, Battle Green was established in 2018 in response to growing reports on the negative environmental impact of single-use plastic and waste.

We have created a range of eco-friendly alternatives to everyday items – at the heart of which are our award-winning plastic-free natural cosmetics.

Denalis Jewellery

I handcraft fine silver jewellery using silver precious metal clay. Sustainability and a circular business model is at the very core of Denalis as I primarily work with a material made using what would otherwise be a waste product. Silver precious clay is a very versatile, non-toxic, zero waste material. It's made from extremely fine particles of silver, a by-product of manufacturing processes, mixed with an organic plant-based binder (often rice flour) and water. Nothing is wasted during my making process - unused clay can be saved for other pieces, if a design goes wrong or breaks it can be reconstituted and even the dust from sanding can be reused. As the final fired product is assay quality silver it can be melted down and used to make something new. I offer my customers repairs to their Denalis jewellery for example replacing clasps, jump rings, restringing bracelets to minimise waste. Any broken silver pieces that are replaced are melted down and reused in new jewellery.

SuperLooper

SuperLooper is a preloved baby clothing rental service. According to Hubbub.org there are 183 million items of outgrown baby clothes stored away and forgotten in the UK. All the clothes in our library have been donated by parents doing a 'conscious clear out' of their cupboards. We then find them new homes and keep them in circulation for as long as possible. Our rental prices are super low so we're a waste-free alternative to fast fashion. Keeping hardly worn clothes in the loop helps parents save time, money and storage space and reduces their impact on the planet while gaining access to all the cute kid’s clothes they need.
