Here at Chessington Garden Centre we are always looking for new ways to reduce the impact we have on the environment. This not only includes on site activities but also activities elsewhere that utilise products purchased here. Therefore sustainable procurement is an important factor in reducing Chessington Garden Centres overall environmental impact. As part of our environmental management system we have developed our very own `Eco Label` for products which meet our own selected environmental criteria.
