means we are diverting textile waste from landfill and giving it another use.


Robert Scott’s mops, manufactured here in the UK at our mills in the north west of England, are also made using sustainably-sourced materials. The cotton used in the mop heads is sourced from waste produced during the spinning process, again giving a use for a material that would otherwise be disposed of.


For a more sustainable approach to traditional mopping, we’ve designed the patented Refill socket mop. This means you only need to dispose of the mop yarn while re-using the plastic socket, which are also made here in the UK. The Refill socket can be cleaned and reused hundreds of times,


and is colour coded to prevent cross-contamination, making mopping more hygienic, cost-effective and eco-friendly.


Some time ago, we decided to sell a range of wooden brushware and broom handles created from sustainable sources. The best way we felt we could achieve this was by supplying products certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) – an international non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting responsible forestry in areas that people and wildlife call home. These products include the likes of our wooden brooms and hand brushes, and to make it easier to identify which ones are certified, look out for the FSC logo on the product listing on our website.
