Buying standards

Our buying standards and policies help us develop a range that enables our customers to enjoy healthier and more sustainable homes.

At B&Q we seek to do the right thing and ensure that all of our vendors share our values. Our Buying Standards provide the Policy Framework that guides our buying teams and supply partners to create ranges that are progressively more sustainable and offer our customers accessible solutions to improve their homes.

Kingfisher Sustainability Policies

We employ the Kingfisher group’s sustainability policies, including ethical sourcing, chemicals, wood and paper and sustainable packaging. We also use the Sustainable Home Product Guidelines to build better product ranges.
