Sustainability

We’re making changes every day to the way we bring you our beer, using sustainable brewing methods to benefit the environment, our community and our future.

Each of our beers is a tribute to Richmond Park, one of the UK’s most famous National Nature Reserves. The park is also London’s largest Site of Special Scientific Interest and a European Special Area of Conservation. We try our best to reflect this with each beer we bring to you.

Our commitment to sustainable business practices is absolute so we can continue to champion our hometown Kingston upon Thames, Richmond Park and our local community. We’re continuing to make significant investments in our site and will continue to strive to make the brewery cleaner and greener for the future. Watch this space!!

Recycling

We recycle 97% of the grain and hops used in the brewing process as animal feed on local farms.

We also recycle the packaging we use to bring you our beer. This explains why sometimes you’ll find reused bits of polystyrene, bubble wrap, and shredded paper or cardboard boxes in your packages. We hope you will continue this circular economy practice to ensure no excess waste is added to landfills unnecessarily.

Packaging

Our cardboard packaging is 100% recyclable, and we use lightweight aluminium for our canned beer. Simply remove the labels from our cans to make sure they can be recycled by your local authority.

Consolidating deliveries

We consolidate our deliveries to make sure we keep pollution to a minimum in our local area. This also helps us to save us time and money so we can put all that extra effort into making our beer even better.

Waste reduction

We work hard to minimize the amount of water, packaging, and electricity we use to make our beer. Whilst we can’t stop using these resources (otherwise we’ll have no beer!), we have big ambitions to become a carbon neutral brewery and are working hard to achieve this goal.

Watch this space as we’ll update our sustainability practices each time we add another sustainable agenda into our daily operations.

If you have an idea for how we can make our carbon neutral ambitions a reality, please get in touch by emailing us: hello@theparkbrewery.com
