Our Ethics

At Oaka Books, we put education, sustainability, and ethical responsibility at the heart of everything we do. As a 100% carbon-neutral company, we are committed to making a positive impact — not just through the resources we create for learners, but in how we create them.

Carbon Neutral & Climate Conscious

We’re taking real, measurable steps to reduce our carbon footprint:

• We’ve significantly cut transport emissions by limiting the use of air freight across our supply chain.

• All our websites are hosted on green-powered data centres, and our offices are heated and powered entirely by renewable energy.

• Since 2017, we’ve offset all remaining transport emissions through CarbonFootprint.com (2017–2021) and Ecologi (2022 onwards).

• In 2024, we began planting one tree for every order to move beyond carbon neutrality and contribute to reforestation and ecosystem restoration.

Wherever possible, we avoid plastic across our production, packaging, and logistics. Instead, we use recyclable and biodegradable materials — including biodegradable clear bags as an alternative to plastic.

Ethical Labour & Working Conditions

We believe in fair, safe, and respectful working conditions for everyone involved in the creation and delivery of our products. We work closely with our suppliers to ensure that these standards are maintained throughout our supply chain.

Since 2019, we’ve required all suppliers to meet at least the standards set by the Fair Labor Association Code of Conduct. We also support ethical international trade that enables fair employment opportunities in developing countries.

Fair Tax Commitment

Oaka Books is proudly UK-based and operated under Lime Creations Ltd. We are fully committed to paying our fair share of UK corporation tax — no loopholes, no shortcuts, just honest contribution.
