Embracing Sustainability at Planet.A Boutique

At Planet.A Boutique, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Located in the vibrant city of Edinburgh, our boutique offers eco-conscious gifts, everyday essentials, and products that inspire a greener, more mindful lifestyle. As passionate artists and makers ourselves, we, Pirko and Amaury, have brought our 15 years of experience as communication specialists for IKEA into this new journey, curating a collection of products that reflect our love for the planet and commitment to responsible consumption.

Green Gifts and Goodies for a Greener Future

Our Boutique showcases more than just our own products. We curate a wide range of eco-friendly gifts and essentials, from upcycled home décor to handcrafted body-care products and charming greeting cards. Every item in our shop is carefully selected with the environment in mind, with a focus on plastic-free packaging and compostable materials whenever possible.

By choosing Planet.A Boutique, you’re not just buying a product—you’re making a conscious choice to support sustainable living. Whether it’s through repair and refurbishment initiatives or partnering with ethical UK brands and passionate local artisans, we aim to inspire a greener, more responsible lifestyle for our community.

Our Commitment to Eco-Responsibility

From the very beginning, sustainability has been our guiding principle. We believe it’s our shared responsibility to protect the environment, and every product in our boutique reflects this ethos. We carefully consider the entire lifecycle of each item, asking important questions like, “Is this a real need?” and “Will this product be used again and again, or will it end up as waste?”

When designing our own products, we prioritize creating durable, functional items that minimize environmental impact. Our games, for example, are designed to be replayed multiple times, offering new experiences with every use—encouraging reuse rather than disposal.

Materials Matter

We are committed to using only the best eco-friendly materials in our products. Our paper goods are made from FSC-certified recycled paper and printed with vegetable-based inks, ensuring that the production process is environmentally safe. These materials are compostable, meaning they can return to the earth without causing harm when they’re no longer needed. We believe in durability and long-lasting designs, so our products can be cherished for years to come.

Supporting Local, Ethical Production

In addition to sustainable materials, we take great pride in collaborating with local, eco-friendly companies for the production of our goods. By working with small businesses like Out of the Blueprint  and Bright Green Solutions, we not only reduce our carbon footprint but also support local craftsmanship.
