Though watches and timepieces are not exactly considered as blatant contributors to the degrading status of Mother Earth’s polluted condition, eco-friendly watches are known to be around, standing out as watches built by the pretexts and norms of sustainable consciousness and understanding.
Sprout, a brand that has been in the time piece business for 50 years, stands to be one of the many few eco-conscious watchmakers.
Sprout’s Eco Advocacies
As a brand, Sprout’s take on eco-friendliness isn’t about proving to the world that they are the most eco friendly brand of watches, but is rather intent on giving emphasis on spreading the benefits of going eco friendly.
Inflated or bloated claims don’t fit well with Sprout, with the brand more liable to see value in actually hearing out what a brand REALLY does in contributing to Earth-inclined initiatives and advocacies.
Intent on recycling all the paper involved in their product’s production, as well as keen on lowering their electric costs by turning off lights, is what Sprout is about. Implementing carpooling policies, as well as initiating eco-inclined programs and activities for Sprout employees, Sprout has also seen the value of using recycled materials in making their products, matching those eco advocacies with real-time business-related decisions.
From weighing the cost of boat VS air travel and the ensuing carbon footprint which can be left behind, to lessening the amount of non-recyclable packaging involved in their products, Sprout’s take on eco-consciousness goes beyond coming up with products which are made with recycled materials, extending eco-awareness into facets of its personnel’s day to day lives.
Bottom line, Sprout is working its way into being a truly eco-aware brand that delivers quality timepieces to one and all.
