At Holland & Holland, sustainability isn’t just a commitment—it’s a guiding principle. From the honour of receiving a Royal Warrant from King Charles III to every aspect of their operations, they prioritise reducing their environmental footprint and fostering biodiversity.
Innovative Circularity in Action
Our collaboration with Holland & Holland focuses on reimagining waste as a valuable resource. Together, we’re transforming two key waste streams—shotgun cases from the shooting school and corks from hospitality services—into elegant place-setting gifts. These gifts include a premium native wildflower meadow seed mix, allowing guests to create their own vibrant habitats at home.
This isn’t simply recycling; it’s circularity in action. By upcycling by-products into meaningful, sustainable items, we’re showcasing the potential of innovative design to make a positive environmental impact and differentiate the brand at the same time.

A Royal Commitment to Sustainability
Holland & Holland’s dedication to sustainability earned them a Royal Warrant in August 2024, granted in the name of King Charles III. This prestigious recognition underscores the importance of circularity, biodiversity, and habitat recovery—values that resonate deeply with both our organisations.
Empowering Guests to Make a Difference
One of the most rewarding aspects of this initiative is its ability to directly engage Holland & Holland’s guests in sustainability. The wildflower meadow seed mix, sourced entirely within the UK from a single growing location, ensures quality and traceability. Guests can plant these seeds in their own gardens, fostering habitats that contribute to biodiversity, habitat recovery, and carbon sequestration.
Looking to the future, we’re thrilled to support Holland & Holland’s plans to establish a guest-planted wildflower meadow at their Northwood Shooting School and distribute these gifts as part of their School and Community initiatives. Imagine a thriving ecosystem, with each square metre linked to a named guest or a named school—a lasting testament to shared commitment and action.
Driving Positive Change
For 2025, our collaboration aims to create 2,000 square metres of new wildflower meadow habitat. This could result in 900,000 wildflowers and offset 5,500kg of CO2. But these are just the first steps. Together, we’re laying the groundwork for scaling this initiative and achieving even greater impact over time.
As sustainability becomes increasingly central to consumer preferences and legislation, brands like Holland & Holland have a unique opportunity to lead and empower their guests and communities to contribute meaningfully to habitat restoration and biodiversity.
Join Us on This Journey
This spring, Holland & Holland’s guests will receive more than just wildflower meadow gifts. They’ll take home an opportunity to make a difference. With a bit of luck, one of these gifts could even find its way to Highgrove. That would certainly be a stylish touch.
“When Edward proposed this innovative and differentiated idea, I could immediately see the ease with which we could scale outcomes and deliver on our commitments as a Royal Warrant Holder,” said Paul Shanahan, General Manager of the Holland & Holland Shooting Ground. “Highly differentiated and ‘on brand’, we look forward to implementing the idea this spring and encouraging our guests to take the seeds home for their own projects.”
At Brandjuicer Limited, we are proud to collaborate with a business that shares our passion for turning sustainability into action. It is very satisfying to be a business that does good by growing. “Empowering our guests to play a role in habitat recovery and biodiversity improvement is a practical and proactive approach,” Paul Shanahan continued. “With this initiative, we are reaffirming our dedication to sustainability, even as economic pressures challenge many businesses in this area.”
