Every Purchase Plants a Tree: How Created By Lau is Partnering With Ecologi
Share
At Created By Lau, our impact on the environment matters deeply to us — and we believe that making a positive difference is far more achievable than most people think.
Our No Waste Promise
Every piece of jewellery we create starts with a commitment to zero waste. When we work with polymer clay and resin, we take every offcut and scrap and turn it into something new. Nothing goes to landfill when it can become something beautiful instead — like the pieces in our No Waste Collection.
It's a small act, but it reflects something we believe in deeply: that craft and conscience can go hand in hand.
Why We Partnered With Ecologi
We felt we could do even more — and that's why we're proud to have partnered with Ecologi. Every time you buy from Created By Lau, Ecologi plants a tree on our behalf.
It's now well established that planting trees is one of the most effective tools we have to tackle the climate crisis. Trees help keep global temperatures from rising above 1.5°C and are crucial in preventing ecological collapse. By shopping with us, you're not just investing in a piece of jewellery — you're investing in the planet.
Frequently asked: Does buying from Created By Lau really plant a tree? Yes — through our Ecologi partnership, a tree is planted for every order placed. You can view our growing forest on our Ecologi profile.
What Is Ecologi?
Ecologi is a UK-based climate action platform that funds tree planting and carbon reduction projects around the world. They work with certified projects to ensure every tree planted has a genuine, lasting impact.
Frequently asked: Is Ecologi a legitimate charity? Ecologi is a certified B Corp and social enterprise. Their projects are independently verified, and you can track the impact of every tree planted through their platform.
Small Choices, Big Impact
We know that no single business can solve the climate crisis alone — but we also know that every choice adds up. Choosing handmade, one-of-a-kind jewellery over fast fashion accessories is already a more sustainable decision. Pairing that with our Ecologi partnership means your purchase does double the good.
Frequently asked: Is handmade jewellery more sustainable than high street jewellery? Generally, yes. Handmade pieces are produced in small batches, use fewer resources, and are made to last — the opposite of fast fashion jewellery that's designed to be replaced.
Shop With Purpose
Every piece from Created By Lau is made by hand in our Yorkshire studio, with care for both the craft and the planet. When you wear one of our pieces, you're wearing something that gave back.
