WHO ARE THEY?

Founded in 2014, Sendle is Australia's first 100% carbon neutral shipping service. That means they ship the products you buy from us, straight to your door, whilst taking care of the planet. They are a certified B corporation, striving to be a force for good, setting an example to other courier services, and helping small businesses succeed everywhere.

Carbon neutrality means you have a perfect balance between the amount you release into the atmosphere and the systems you have in place to lower your emissions. You are neutral and sit on that line between not releasing and releasing, or you don't release any emissions whatsoever. Sendle do this by calculating their maximum carbon yield number (the highest amount of carbon that could be generated by any given delivery) and offsetting it through sustainability projects like South Pole. 

	Transport (cars, trucks, public transport, domestic flights and shipping) is Australia’s second largest source of greenhouse gas pollution. The sector emitted 102 million tonnes carbon dioxide (MtCO2) in 2018, representing 18% of Australia’s annual greenhouse gas pollution.
	Transport emissions have the highest rate of growth of any sector since 1990. With no action, transport emissions are projected to continue growing to 2030.

HOW BLAEK STORE PARTNERS WITH SENDLE

What we post to you, our online customer, is the promise of sustainable, ethical and organic products built to last, often with free repairs for life. How we post is the next step that is so important and working with Australian courier Sendle allows us to do that 100% carbon neutral!

Sendle are the first postal company in Australia to achieve a carbon neutral certification and that is a reason enough to back them. It has to make sense financially too though and their prices are slightly cheaper than Australia Post which makes it a no brainer!
