We care for pooches and the planet - now in recyclable packaging! - Barking Heads & Meowing Heads

We're excited to share some news that will not only wag your dogs' tails but also warm your eco-conscious hearts. At Barking Heads, we've always believed in providing the best nutrition for our furry friends and now we're taking more steps towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future.

Barking Heads Dry Dog Food

Recyclable Packaging: A Paw-sitive Change

We're thrilled to announce that all our dry dog food packaging is now fully recyclable at larger supermarkets. As a company deeply committed to the well-being of both pets and the planet, this change is a testament to our dedication to sustainability.

The move to our new recyclable bags has been carefully implemented to ensure that the freshness of our dog food products remains uncompromised.

We understand the importance of maintaining the highest standards in product quality. Rest assured, the shelf life of our dry dog food remains a hearty 18 months. However, as part of our sustainability-driven change, we've bid farewell to the re-seal feature on our packaging. Instead, we advise folding the bag and storing it in a cool, dry place to preserve the long-term freshness of the product.

This small adjustment contributes significantly to reducing waste and promoting a more eco-friendly lifestyle.

From Yorkshire with Love: Production Now in the UK

But that's not all! We're excited to share that all our Barking Heads dry dog food range is now proudly produced right here in our very own Yorkshire-based factory. We believe in supporting local economies and ensuring that every bag of Barking Heads is made with love in the UK.

What sets us apart even further is our commitment to the environment. We're overjoyed to announce that Barking Heads is now part of the family of brands from the first large pet food manufacturer in the UK to achieve carbon negativity. Yes, you read that right – we're not just carbon neutral; we're actively working to offset more carbon emissions than we produce. It's a monumental step towards a more sustainable and eco-friendly future for our pets and the planet.

A Win-Win for Pets and the Planet

As we celebrate this exciting chapter in our journey, we want to express our gratitude to you, our Barking Heads family. Your support has enabled us to take bold steps towards a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable future. Together, we're creating a world where our pets can thrive on nutritious food while leaving the smallest paw print on the planet.
