After being put through rigorous questioning by the RHS Sustainable Excellence Awards judging panel, including the legendary dragon Deborah Meaden, our commitment to craftsmanship, responsible design, and sustainable materials led us to taking home the Sustainable Lifestyle Product Of The Year Award at this year's RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

It was a honour to be alongside the innovative brands within the other categories of the Sustainable Excellence awards and we look forward to exhibiting again next year.

Quality sunglasses are essential for all serious gardeners, so we were happy to help out Tom Massey and his incredible team at this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show - keeping the sun from their eyes, and hopefully, easing some of the hard work that went into creating their stunning Avanade Intelligent Garden.

To celebrate, we sat down in the garden with Tom to hear all about his concept and design.
