About Us
Can we really trust
sustainable products and services?
Our Name is our Benchmark
If a product or service cannot prove
or cannot provide provenance
that it is both
"natural and sustainable"
then it is simply not good enough for today's world
Where can you find Proof or Provenance
The answers are to be found in organisations that are transparent, accountable, socially and environmentally responsible. Sustainable provenance is the documented, transparent, and verifiable history of a product’s origin, journey, and production methods, ensuring they align with environmental and social ethical standards. We are one such business, and we strongly recommend eco-friendly consumers look for products and services that carry one of three certifications.
B CORP
B Corp Certified companies, organisations that have voluntarily undertaken a rigorous assessment of their business structure to achieve their certification - which they must renew every three years. We have a growing number of B Corp Companies on our web platform, bookmark our page, we are an excellent up to date resource of Environmentally Social Governance (ESG) companies.
SOIL ASSOCIATION
We are proud to outreach on behalf of the Soil Association, you may know them well their Organic Certification of food products, however their sustainable certification schemes extends across beauty and wellbeing, fashion and textiles, catering , farming and forestry. Once again many of our partners have Organic Certification in particular in Beauty and Nutritional Health products.
BSI
The British Standards Institute form the backbone of internationally recognised standards. Consumers that want to see proof of an arduous and rigorous examination of BSI Sustainability standards, follow this

to explore the multiples of standards that BSI provide across all industries including ISO 14001, ISO 50001, ISO 14068, Net zero, and more.
Look for the BSI Kite Mark for BS ISO 14068-1** Carbon Neutral Products. Morrisons Supermarkets achieved 60% reduction in carbon footprint for their free range eggs as part of this initiative. One of our corporate partners New English Teas* is accredited to SA8000(R) a USA based global equivalent to ISO BSI 9001 and 14001.
The food sector is a primary focus for BSI due to its high GHG contribution, estimated at 34% of all global emissions. Expect to see more BSI Kitemarks and if there is one product you feel should be kitemarked -
tell us. If we agree, we may contact the company on your behalf.
Founded in 2018 Naturally Sustainable is operated by people with decades of experience in supply chain benchmarking and certification.
The organisation was created specifically to promote sustainable best practice.
We chose to create a promotional vehicle capable of giving pleasure, knowledge and experience to our audience focusing on sustainable products and services at home, at play, at work and when travelling.
We are an independent, pragmatic organisation, working alongside nationally respected UK companies such as British Standards Institute (BSI), Ordnance Survey, the Soil Association, English Heritage, the Royal Horticultural Society and the National Trust for Scotland.
Our business is by nature a research organisation, and at its core we too identify the need to be transparent, accountable and socially and environmentally responsible. We do this by being a active member of the UK's
SME Climate Hub and by promoting companies that are B Corp Certificated.
Commitment and
Accredidation
Every company that commits to the SME Climate Hub must first make a commitment to reduce C02 within its organisations at three levels:
Scope 1 - All direct greenhouse gas emissions. This includes emissions from sources that are owned or controlled by the business such as company vehicles and company facilities.
Scope 2 - All indirect greenhouse gas emissions arising from electricity, heat or steam consumption.
Scope 3 - Value chain emissions related to the business’s suppliers, customers and employees. This includes emissions from purchased goods and services, transportation, the use and disposal of your sold products and business travel and employee commuting.
