The award-winning
Marshalls way
Leading the way in sustainable practice
Our Promise to You
As the UK’s leading supplier of landscape products, be assured that the
products we manufacture and supply through our merchant partners
or installers aim to be measurably more sustainable than equivalent
products from other manufacturers. Visit marshalls.co.uk/sustainability
At Marshalls, we are conscious of the environmental impact that our
products make. We have committed our business to be sustainable
and ethical in enacting all of our social, economic and environmental
policies. The tangible evidence we provide of improving sustainable
practice continues to win industry recognition and awards.
Reducing CO2 emissions
Marshalls has achieved significant cuts in carbon emissions since 2008
through energy efficiency, investment and cultural change. We were
the first company to publish the carbon footprint of all the products
we manufacture in the UK, enabling our customers to make informed
choices about the carbon impact of their purchases. Use the easy
carbon calculator on our website to calculate this at: www.marshalls.
co.uk/homeowners/hard-landscaping-carbon-footprint-calculator
Protecting the environment
We are proud of the work we undertake to reinstate and protect the
natural environment of all our manufacturing sites. These are carefully
managed to support local flora and fauna, and we share our experience
with environmental agencies and local communities.
Marshalls and the United Nations
Global Compact (UNGC)
The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) was launched in 2000 to
harness the power of collective action in the promotion of responsible
corporate citizenship. The Compact is a framework for businesses that
are committed to aligning their operations and strategies with the 10
universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the
environment and anti-corruption. Marshalls plc became a signatory of
the UNGC in January 2009 and a member of the UK Network later the
same year.

Fairstone® - Ethical Assurance from Marshalls
Child labour is a persistent, unacceptable and complex global issue,
and despite many British consumers being more aware of the need to
choose ethically sourced products, many people don’t realise that an
issue even exists when they are choosing Indian sandstone for their
garden or driveway makeover.
It is appalling that children, some as young as five or six, work in
dangerous and terrifying conditions in quarries to produce stone for
sale in the UK. How would we feel if these were our own children?
At Marshalls we want our customers to be able to
buy our beautiful natural stone products with a
clear conscience. By choosing a Marshalls product
with a Fairstone mark of ethical assurance you can
be sure that every reasonable precaution has been
taken to ensure that child labour has not been
by
used in its production. Marshalls has an audited
programme in place to assess working conditions in its suppliers’ work
places and suppliers are independently assessed against the principles
of the ETI base code using a multi-stakeholder audit approach.
Further than that, Marshalls is committed to a programme of activity
that aims to ensure all the workers in its supply chain are paid a fair
living wage, health and safety practices are in place, no discrimination
is practiced and harsh and inhumane treatment is not allowed.
Marshalls is fully committed to engaging with its suppliers to improve
working conditions.

A Check List for Customers
Remember to plan early
Good installers are in demand and will probably need some notice.
Be wary of someone who can start work immediately
Get more than one quotation, and in writing
The cheapest isn’t always best. Ask to see examples of work and maybe
talk to former customers. Choose the contractor that you feel best
understands your requirements
Trust your chosen installer
Discuss your own ideas, they will always tell you what is feasible
Take your time too in selecting the best product
Choose one that you really like. Your installer expert can help but
remember you will be living with it for years, so choose the best quality
you can afford
Ask about drainage
The best installers will advise on the necessary drainage to comply with
current regulations
Marshalls Register installers want you to be completely satisfied
Full payment is not expected until completion to your satisfaction
For reassurance
Ask to see their most recent Marshalls assessment

Pavex has completely redesigned and
landscaped the rear of this property to create
a modern, low-maintenance garden. Circles
and curves have been introduced to soften
the otherwise square plot. The rendered walls
provide a fantastic contrast to the subtle colour
variations of the ethically-sourced, superior
quality sandstone, backed by the Marshalls
Stone Standard.

Most Creative Use of Marshalls Products
Designed and Installed by Beesleys Landscapes, Winsford
The customer brief for this project was to produce a
garden that was personal to them, but also to create
a modern usable space in a small, unusually shaped
garden plot. The client’s love of Liverpool FC was
subtly introduced into the garden design by Beesleys
Landscapes with the words ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’.
Overall the workmanship and combination of ethicallysourced stone products is a perfect example of what
can be achieved using high-quality materials.

which could be used equally for entertaining and
relaxing. BH Building created this fantastic garden
which combined all the elements the client sought,

adjacent bar area. BH Building has used a vast array
of Marshalls products to create a truly unique and
wonderful garden.

This garden makeover is a fantastic achievement by Mike and his team who
transformed approximately two acres of grass and gravel hard standing into a sensational garden using ethically sourced Natural Slate

as a curved water feature faced with
Stoneface walling, hand finished bullnose
edges, step risers and copings.
