Awarded No 1 British Pet Food
The Good Shopping Guide 2007/2008 

Winner of
The 2008 Greenshoots Award

Our aim as a company is to provide the best food possible for our cats and dogs whilst treating the environment with the utmost respect and as responsibly as possible. 

Reducing food miles
To achieve our environmental aims we purchase as many of our raw materials as locally as possible with the vast majority coming from the UK with some even grown on the site where production takes place.

UK manufactured recyclable packaging
We purchase our packaging from a UK-based supplier rather than purchasing from the Far East as many companies do.  OrganiPets' packaging is also recyclable.

Organic (of course!)
As an organic product we do not use any pesticides or fertilisers in the production of our organic ingredients and avoid artificial colours preservatives and additives.  All our organic ingredients are either accredited by The Soil Association or Organic Farmers and Growers.  Our production process is also accredited by The Soil Association.

Responsible office policies
OrganiPets runs a strict recycling programme within our office, recycling paper, cardboard and plastic and trying to keep  the use of these to a minimum as well as operating our logistics as efficiently as possible.

Why we only produce environmentally friendly dry food
OrganiPets only produces dry food as wet dog and cat foods are typically made up of 80% water.  It seems an environmental nonsense to transport tins or sachets which are predominantly made of water when there is no good reason to do so since dry food technology has approved so much in the last decade.  Imagine, that 80% of a lorry or, even worse, a sea container filled with wet pet food is actually just shipping water around the planet.  OrganiPets, as a dry pet food has a much lower moisture content and also a much longer best before date when opened.  If you wish to add additional moisture just add water to the food when served!  A wet food once opened will go off literally in a matter of hours whilst OrganiPets is good for 12 months from date of manufacture whether the packaging has be opened or not.

PETA approved
OrganiPets is approved by PETA - People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals

As we only use organic, free range, happy chickens in the production of OrganiPets and we do no invasive testing on dogs or cats PETA approached us in 2008 to offer us their seal of approval.

The 2008 Greenshoots Award
OrganiPets are the proud winners of the 2008 Greenshoots Award as Oxfordshire's most environmentally friendly business newcomer established since 2005.  We are immensely proud that our positive approach to the environment and good responsible nutrition for animals has been so generously recognised.  As a result OrganiPets has received the equivalent of £15,000 of free rent for 2010 at the Innovation Centre at the Milton Park Business Park, Didcot.  The Innovation Centre is a state of the art environmentally considered development, making use of solar panels, using rainwater for grey water applications and a number of energy saving practices.  It's a great, new, office environment for us and fantastic that we can further enhance our environmental approach to doing business in the 21st Century.
