Easy on the Planet™ Programme
Reduce your impact on the environment, join our Easy on the Planet Programme.
We understand that sustainability is at the heart of your strategy. But sometimes it's hard to quantify how far your business has come?
Our Easy on the Planet programme partners with you to help you climb the sustainability ranks.
When you reduce your small orders, select eco-conscious products, and make changes based on our quarterly reports, we reduce packaging and transport emissions- and plant trees on your behalf.
We approach the task by using a wide range of metrics and business intelligence to measure your company's 'green' progress. And that's just the beginning...
MORE ways to make a difference
Across last year you’ve helped us make a real difference and reach a significant milestone. Our Easy on the Planet programme reached a total of 11,000 customers who helped us plant 200,000 trees totalling over 1 million trees planted since the programme started in 2015. A great achievement for us, our customers and our planet. Thank you for your sustainable purchasing.
This year you can help us achieve more and help make a positive contribution by:
Give your eco-conscience a boost by making small changes to your purchasing habits. Choose from over 16,000 products with the Easy on the Planet and EasyTree icons.
Join us and many customers on the journey to green.
We’ve added clear labels on our products that are eco-conscious, to make it easier for you to make greener procurement decisions.
Using your ordering history in 2020 as a baseline, we will look at the amount of green products you select in 2021 and measure your overall improvement. When you select more eco-conscious products, we will plant trees on your behalf.
Minimising the amount of small, inefficient orders you place is one of the easiest ways you can be a better friend to the planet. It cuts back on excess packaging, reduces transport emissions, and has the added benefit of reducing your administration costs.
We will look at the amount of small orders* you made in 2020 as a baseline to monitor your improvement. When you place fewer small orders with us, we will plant trees on your behalf.
*Any order with a value lower than €50
Staples have marked a specific selection of eco-conscious products with the EasyTree icon, making it even quicker and easier to make green choices.
Every time you purchase eco-conscious products with the EasyTree icon, we plant trees on your behalf. How? Part of the revenue is donated straight to ‘Plant-for-the-Planet’, a global movement fighting climate change by planting trees around the world.
Before a product is considered Easy on the Planet, the supplier must first agree to the Supplier Code of Conduct.
Upon agreement with this Code, individual products are then reviewed against the appropriate criteria.
