The Company:

At Pigment we genuinely love what we do – designing and writing cards that reflect the world we live in right now. We understand that, now more than ever, card shoppers want to make meaningful connections with their friends and families and share in moments of joy, no matter how big or small. So, we’ve put on our designing hats to create cards with big, smiley dollops of kindness and positivity.

We take all aspects of our work seriously and, whatever life throws at us, our small but perfectly formed team will keep on providing the high levels of quality and customer service for which we have become known. We work with paper. We rely on the earth’s resources for our products so we have a responsibility to protect the earth too. We’re working to improve the sustainability of our products all the time, to meet our responsibilities to the environment.

We have removed flitter from our cards, use Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified paper across our entire range and have drastically reduced our use of plastics. We print almost all of our cards in the UK. And we won’t stop there. We’ll keep trying to be the most responsible ‘us’ we can be. We embrace diversity in our content and in our values. We will continue to challenge ourselves on inclusivity and social responsibility as we develop new products. We feel lucky to do what we do. And we feel it’s important to give back to the community we live in. In 2022 we will be fundraising for Young Minds.
