LIFE ON EARTH
LIFE BELOW EARTH
End-of-life PPE and workwear don’t belong in
land昀椀ll, and with SMI, they don’t have to.
At SMI, we believe every order should do more
than just supply, it should give something back.
Our Recycling Scheme gives your old garments a
fresh start.
That’s why, through our Life on Earth initiative, we
plant one tree for every £1,000 you spend with us.
At SMI, we’re driven by a clear purpose: to
protect, preserve, and restore the world around
us.
We’ll collect, recycle, and turn them into new
materials that can be reused again and again.
Each order helps restore forests, protect wildlife,
and clean the air we all breathe.
Our goal? To plant 50,000 trees, and we’re well on
the way!
