“It’s exciting news! We’re thrilled to be shortlisted,” said MD Seth Woodmansterne. “Sustainability has been at the heart of Woodmansterne since the 1980s. Our commitment goes beyond creating a completely plastic-free product range – it’s embedded in how we operate.

“Being a finalist for this award is a testament to our ongoing efforts to reduce our environmental impact and drive positive change in our industry.”
