Nick takes pride in his blooming herb garden. All the Orange Spot's savoury products have our freshly grown herbs to flavour them. This ensures that you get only the freshest flavours.

The Spot is officially offsetting it's entire
carbon emissions by putting in place features such as.....

  • The Spot have planted a forest of trees with Green fleet, this covered alltheir carbon emissions for 2009. But that's not all. The forest ofnative trees is helping to improve water quality,reduce soil degredation and provides essential habitat for native species.
  • Solar panels now gleam from the bakery roof assisting the power usage by ahuge amount. This is only the first stage of solar power.
  • The new water tanks now feed the staff amenities. Reducing the amount ofmains water used by 37,000 litres per year. Since 2003 we have more than doubled our turnover whilst our total water usage has decreasedfrom262KL per quarter to just 49KL per quater in 2010.
  • All  packaging has been replaced with recycled paper. No plastic carry bags are used.
  • The preferrred suppliers to The Orange Spot Bakery are those that use 'E-Invoicing',reducing the amount of paper coming through the back door. 

  • The bakery floor is in the process of being refurbished. This will mean that the bakery can change the way they clean and at the same time reduce the amount of water used for cleaning by a massive 30,000 litres per year.Along with bio-degradable cleaning chemicals this is a majorchange to the everyday cleaning needs of the bakery.
  • Reduction to co-mingled waste has been a massive 50% so far, with the introduction of paper & cardboard recycling, plastic recycling and food scraps collected daily to be used in the feed process of farmed pigs.
  • Some good and hungry worms in the new worm farm, currently consume green waste and then the liquid by-product and casings are used to ferilize The Orange Spot's new herb garden. Yes fresh herbs are used in the bakery products so only the best ingredients are taken from nature to you.
  • The bakery only uses recycled toilet paper, paper hand towels & bio-degradable garbage bags.
  • All paper used by the accounts team for hard copy is recycled paper.
The Orange Spot Bakery are committed to reducing their carbon emissions by adopting a plan of pouring profits back into infer-structure to ensure they  offset their carbon footprint whenever possible.
 
The team at The Orange Spot have commenced this challenge to clean up their act and have NOT received ANY grants or financial assistance.
