UK100 promotes suppliers of eco-friendly products and services, ranging from eco homes to tree planting schemes and organic wine.

Eco homes

Eco-friendly construction

Baufritz design and build eco-friendly prefab homes. An award winning pioneer of eco house design, they use environmentally friendly construction methods and sustainable building materials to create stunning, energy efficient houses.

The carbon balance in an average Baufritz house is approximately 50 tonnes positive. This means that if the house is run efficiently using, for example, a combination of gas and solar power, the house will take around 78 years to reach the carbon neutral stage.

Eco gifts

Tree planting gifts

The gift of a tree is an ideal way to celebrate a life event, whether it is the birth of a child, a special birthday, or an anniversary. This unique gift will bring years of pleasure to the recipient while also benefiting the environment.

The Green Balance are developing new, mainly broad leafed woodland in the UK in which everyone can have a stake. The woodland is managed for the benefit of visitors and wildlife.

Apart from providing enjoyment for generations of people, the woodland will in turn produce many benefits for the environment including creation of new wildlife habitats and contributing to carbon reduction.

Organic wine

The Sussex Wine Company offer a wide range of fine organic wines from around the world.

Organic grapes are cultivated without recourse to synthetic fungicides, herbicides and fertilizers. Organic viticulture is a return to old fashioned methods where nurturing the soil, the vine, the whole ecosystem of the vineyard, is of paramount importance. It is not just about avoiding the use of chemicals.

Organic wine producers recognise that it is crucial the base product is as wholesome as it can be and that you cannot mess about with the raw product.
