Categories : Our tips

It might seem unreal to save the planet when purchasing a Christmas tree. However, thanks to the e-commerce Sapins.be, specialist of the online sales of natural and artificial trees, this is possible. In this article, you will find out how it works.

Often, selling trees is not associated with the respect of the planet and environment. The sale specialist in natural and artificial Christmas trees explains how it is possible to act in an ecological and responsive way when purchasing the tree that will decorate your interior.

SELLING CHRISTMAS TREES IN AN ECO-RESPONSIBLE WAY: A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH

Even if we cut an important number of trees every year, we take care of our planet. Being eco-responsible involves a thoughtful and comprehensive approach that includes several steps:

• To become a partner of an environmental association such as Reforest'Action and being involved in its projects;

• To pay attention to materials used, for example, for printing flyers or for the packagings;

• To collaborate with a Belgian working company to recycle unsold trees.

A CHRISTMAS TREE BOUGHT EQUALS A PLANTED TREE

By acquiring a natural Nordmann tree you act against deforestation. Indeed, each time you order a Christmas tree on Sapins.be, 0.99 cents or send to the French association Reforest'Action. The money collected is used to replant trees in the countries affected by deforestation.

The high season for Christmas tree sales is definitely from October to December. It is your turn to act in favour of the environment during that period of time. Moreover, the price of your Christmas tree in not impacted by the association. You still pay the original price but a part of it is send to Reforest’Action as explained before.

RECYCLING THE TREES

Waste is reduced because we have two different cutting periods. The unsold trees will have a second life. Sapins.be sends the surplus to a unique company that takes care of it. Indeed, the trees or cut and recycled into woodchips and barks. They are used to enrich the gardening yards of the association.
