PROTECTING OUR PLANET
Graduor is committed to providing products that have a minimal impact on our environment and do not take advantage of our fellow global citizens. From the paper we print on to the stones and metals we use to craft your ring, we have taken action to ensure that we are a manufacturer of products you can personally be proud of owning. Here are several areas where we have made specific commitments:
NO DIRTY GOLD
Graduor endorses No Dirty Gold‘s Golden Rules and calls on the mining industry to extract and manufacture gold under higher social, human rights and environmental standards. For more information about this movement, please visit www.nodirtygold.org.
NO BLOOD DIAMONDS
The United Nations passed a resolution called the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme that is designed to certify the origins of diamonds and to ensure the stones are not “conflict” or “blood” diamonds. It is Graduor’s commitment to you that the diamonds used in our products are conflict free, based on written guarantees provided by our diamond supplier.
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified
Graduor is proud to print our High School Class Ring Catalog entirely on Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Certified Paper. FSC certification ensures that the paper used to make this catalog contains fiber from well-managed and responsibly harvested forests that meet strict environmental and socioeconomic standards.
ENVIRONNEMENTALY CREATED BIRTHSTONES
Our simulated birthstones are all lab created stones, with many sharing the same chemical properties as genuine stones. With the exception of diamonds, our stones are not mined and, as a result, are significantly more eco-friendly.
