CO2 Neutrality

The journey towards a more sustainable world is made of two roads: reducing greenhouse gas emissions and protecting natural habitats. We are committed to reducing plastic waste, but we won’t forget about reducing emissions. Therefore, our company, supply chain and transport are carbon-neutral, certified by the CO2 Logic label.

Greenhouse gases are responsible for global warming. The pollutants form a blanket in the atmosphere. This blanket traps the heat and acts as an insulation layer. The process warms our planet, leading to a variety of unwanted events such as extreme weather (e.g. floods, heatwaves, etc.) and the endangerment of wildlife.

If we all start to act now, we will still create a sustainable world, which we can proudly leave for the next generations!

We reduce our own waste production and greenhouse gas emissions as much as possible. But for us, this is not enough yet. We are determined to have a carbon-neutral supply chain.

To achieve this, we calculate the total environmental impact of our supply chain. Together with CO2 Logic, we map down the journey of every product from production untill the arrival of the customer. The shipping method, travel kilometres, and weight are monitored to picture the emissions accurately.

Greenhouse gas emissions are global, thus an increase or decrease in one country effects the rest of the world. A global decrease can be achieved by a carbon offset: A voluntary action to help reducing global greenhouse gas emissions in another part of the world. The projects are most effective in developing countries, due to the greater efficiency of appliances in developed countries.

Malawi is a developing country in southeast Africa. The state is one of the poorest in the world.

Most of the population uses biomass for their cooking. Unfortunately, burning these resources has a noticeable impact on the environment and releases greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Vast stretches of tropical rainforest dominate the country’s landscape. However, this valuable natural habitat is in danger due to deforestation for cooking, among others.

This is why we support the cookstove climate project in this African country. The project introduces highly efficient ceramic cookstoves to people. Each stove uses 75% less wood than a traditional fire saving tonnes of CO₂ emissions.
