About sustainability

Conscious consumption,
fair compensation

We believe that every small decision can have a positive impact. We are committed to a sustainable philosophy for people, nature and the world. While we are excited to develop and make available fantastic, green products, we honestly acknowledge that we also use some of nature. We are very conscious of our consumption and carbon footprint. Honesty is important to us, which is why offsetting our emissions and consumption is essential. We would like to give something back to nature for what we have used, because we think it is only fair to do so!

Plastic use

When we ship packages, both from suppliers to us and from us to you, we do not use bubble plastic and/or plastic tape. The use of paper tape allows the cardboard boxes to be easily recycled. Furthermore, we pack your order in recycled unbleached paper protected with padding chips made from potato starch! 🌱

Using a GreenBook saves an average of 300 A4 paper 🗞️, 1974-12,831L of water 💧 and 14.3kWh of energy. ✨

We also offer the option of composing your own pages with the GreenBook, so you get exactly the pages you need. With this, we want to encourage that you don't use more than what you need and also reduce your paper consumption.

CO2 offsetting

We think it is important to offset our consumption and emissions and we do that with PostNL and Fair Climate Fund. Our consumption and emissions are in production, supplier shipments and our headquarters. We have the consumption and emissions calculated and that calculation is put back into the projects of Fair Climate Fund. Furthermore, the shipments from our headquarters to customers are sent CO2 neutral thanks to PostNL. Our core values and philosophy align nicely with PostNL's sustainable goals. 🤝

"Together we are working toward a greener world, together we are writing a green story."

Fair Climate Fund

We are very conscious of our use and emissions. We think it is very important to give back to nature a piece of what we have taken from it, so that is why we like to invest in sustainable projects. A piece of our revenue goes to Fair Climate Fund.

Fair Climate Fund is a (Dutch NGO) that develops new, creative solutions to persistent global problems. Every six months we calculate the kilometers traveled from suppliers to us and from us to customers. Fair Climate Fund calculates how much CO2 we emit with this and we compensate the total emissions by investing back into the world.

By offsetting our consumption and emissions through Fair Climate Fund, we support the Kenya Biogas Program. The introduction of bio-digesters in Kenya contributes to climate change mitigation and improved living conditions. The reduction of CO2 emissions from bio-digesters in Kenya has been certified by the Gold Standard.

Vegan leather

We strive for a green future and want to live in harmony with people and nature. We want to use high-quality and sustainable materials for our products. Leather is a material that comes close, but we are absolutely against animal suffering and do not want to use animal products. Therefore, we started looking for green alternatives for our material use. The solution: 100% vegan leather, an imitation material that is sturdy!

In a village just above Bangkok in Thailand, we found a nice little family business run by brother Sokun and sister Katis, who are very skilled in their craftsmanship. They specialize in sewing. 🪡 Thanks to their creative skills and craftsmanship, the vegan leather products were created. These are animal-free and sturdy products that offer optimal quality. By purchasing the vegan leather products, you are also supporting the craftsmanship of Sokun and Katis.
