Price Changes

We are ARRAN Sense of Scotland and our purpose is to help the world connect with nature.

From the 1st of June, we’ll be updating our pricing, with small increases across selected product lines.

We know no one loves hearing about a price increase, so we want to be open and transparent about why this decision has been made. This is the first time we’ve changed our prices in over two years. During this period, we made the decision to keep our prices stable despite rising costs, because we wanted to avoid passing these increases onto you, our valued customers. Unfortunately, due to continuing rises in energy, labour, material and logistics costs, this step has now become necessary to allow us to continue investing in our products and delivering the quality you expect from ARRAN.

It is hugely important to us that we continue to manufacture the high-quality bath, body and home products you love on our island home of Arran, as we have done for over 35 years.

As a brand, we would like to explain where some of these increased costs have arisen from, as we value the continued support of our customers and want to remain transparent regarding our pricing. We continue to make significant progress in pursuit of our ambitious ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) initiatives and with these positive steps also comes additional investment. Some of our recent highlights include:

• We have eliminated single-use virgin plastics from our product ranges and our bottles are now made using 100% recycled Ocean Prevented Plastic.
• We have been awarded Gold Partner status by TAP in recognition of these efforts and our commitment to maintaining Plastic Free status on the Isle of Arran.
• Our manufacturing sites are on course to use 100% renewable energy and our online distribution centre is now 100% carbon neutral.
• We have eliminated the use of all plastic packaging within our online distribution centre.
• We were awarded a Silver EcoVadis medal for our ambitious ESG initiatives, ranking us in the top 11% of over 90,000 companies assessed worldwide.
• We continue to refuse to compromise on the quality of our ingredients, despite increasing supply chain costs. This has also enabled us to increase the percentage of ingredients of natural origin within our product catalogue as we move towards more natural formulations.
  
• We are also proud to support both local and global communities, including our recent work with Inter Care Africa to supply hygiene products to hospitals in Sierra Leone.

We will continue to invest in the sustainability and quality of all ARRAN products and ESG initiatives as a business, ensuring our customers receive the highest quality products with reduced impact on our surrounding environment.

We appreciate that all of our customers have been impacted by the current cost of living situation and we do not take this decision lightly. Our island home of Arran and our customers are truly the heart of our brand, which is why we wanted to provide advance notice of these changes.

We are a small island business and our customers’ support means everything to us. We hope you understand and we thank you again for your valued loyalty and custom.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at info@arran.com we’re always happy to help.
