Our Commitment

Here at Gecko Jewellery, making sure that our jewellery is ethically and sustainably sourced and produced has always been important to us. Here's more information on how we are continuing to work on practices across the business.

Responsible Jewellery Council

We are a certified member of the Responsible Jewellery Council. All of the materials used in our jewellery are ethically and responsibly sourced. The RJC is the global membership and standards body for responsible jewellery throughout the entire supply chain – from mine to retail.

Their ‘Code of Practice’ references key development frameworks, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, ILO Principles and UN Global Compact and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Selective Suppliers

We only use suppliers who align with our ethical practices and sustainability goals. Part of our sourcing methods are not just about the product, but what the suppliers are doing to sustain the planet – such as gifting Gecko with re-planted trees for the future.

Our suppliers also regularly update us with their future goals for improvement, which include increased renewable energy usage, staff wellbeing and reduction in virgin metals. All our designs are made to a high quality, ensuring they will last for generations.

Sustainable Packaging

As well as sourcing ethical jewellery, we are working on sustainable packaging for pouches and boxes. We now provide packaging made from recycled and recyclable materials for almost all our brands.
Our other packaging and POS materials are made to last and not be frequently thrown away, meaning less waste.

We are also expanding our use of compostable plastic grip bags to store our jewellery, reducing single-use plastic. On top of this, we have switched from bubble wrap to recyclable packing paper and swapped plastic tape for brown paper parcel tape.

Recycled Silver

Our recycled silver comes from a fully audited Chain of Custody supplier, providing evidence and certificates to prove it has come from recycled sources.

We are also proud to say that all our jewellery is approved by AnchorCert Protect meaning that our products are protected against all known metal allergens making them safe for your skin, even if you already have skin or metal allergies.

Carbon Balanced Catalogues

In total during 2021-2022, we offset 13 million tonnes of emissions from our main catalogues through planting trees and buying land to be preserved. We will continue to do this going forwards.

Join us on our journey to consistently improve and work towards a better future.
