Proud partners of the 2020
Sustainability Awards
We were proud partners of the 2020 Sustainability Awards, demonstrating our commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable practices.

Our involvement underscored the importance of collaboration in achieving sustainable development goals and showcased our role as leaders in fostering a more sustainable future.
Natural stone naturally has a low environmental impact. On average, natural stone pavers last a lifetime; therefore, they are sustainable and contribute less to Australia’s landfill crisis. Natural stones do not release toxic emissions and do not require harmful cleaning products to stay polished. The sealants that we offer and use are low VOC and are made from organic solvents. This means they have a low environmental footprint and pose no toxic threat to those using them.
In our current environmental climate, there is an increasing demand for sustainable materials and practices. At RMS Traders, we are consistently finding new ways to continue to preserve our world’s ecology.

RMS Traders are dedicated to reducing our carbon footprint and producing minimal waste. For that reason, our crates and packaging materials are specifically designed to be reusable. In addition, we use off-grid solar panels to power our large warehouse. We are proud to use renewable energy to operate our power instead of contributing to greenhouse gas emissions by using fossil fuels.
We recycle seriously and believe businesses should be required to actively reuse and recycle wherever possible. For example, our overseas factory recycles water and harvests rainwater, relieving pressure from the local water captures.

RMS Traders do not stock or support the reselling of river pebbles. River pebbles are taken from their natural habitat in rivers and creeks, eroding the natural landscape and disrupting the ecosystem and the animals that rely on it. We do not believe this is sustainable or ethical.
All our tiles are ethically sourced, and our wholesale prices do not come at a cost to those we are connected with across the globe. We only do business with companies that adhere to global trade and human rights standards.
