Social & Environmental Responsibility
We must be sensitive to our environment…
We care deeply about the environment and do everything possible to protect our planet for future generations. Our policy is to carry out all our business in a way that will lessen or eliminate any adverse ecological effects, which is a task when you ship substantial quantities of wine from Australia and distribute globally.
For as many years as we can recollect, we have operated with a virtually paperless office. We send no printed price lists or catalogues. All our wines are offered by email and on our website. Our invoices are sent by email and customers are encouraged to pay online or by bank transfer.
• Since May 2016, all of our packaging is 100% biodegradable.
• 100% of all glassware is recycled.
• 100% of all wastepaper and supplier packaging is recycled.
In 2024, for the fourth year running, The Vinorium has been accredited as a Carbon Neutral company.
What is the Carbon Footprint Standard?
The carbon footprint standard draws on and pulls together the leading standards in assessing, reporting and offsetting emissions. It is an internationally recognised standard that enables businesses to promote their low carbon credentials, whilst giving their customers confidence that an internationally approved process has been followed and verified against. The standard can apply to organisations, services, products and events.
There are three levels of the standard:
1. Carbon Footprint Standard – Assessed
2. Carbon Footprint Standard – Reduced
3. Carbon Footprint Standard – Carbon Neutral
Welcome to a cleaner Vinorium
The Vinorium Ltd has always looked to serve and embrace the local community.

These values are ingrained in the very essence of the company and in each and every person that works at The Vinorium Ltd.

Our Philosophy & Values

This is not merely because we believe that all modern businesses should act in this way – although, it would be remiss not to accept that reducing a company’s social and environmental footprint makes good economic and commercial sense.
