1. Determine CO2 emissionsWe have joined forces with ClimatePartner to determine the CO2 emissions of our company and create our Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF): from heating and energy to employee commuting, business trips and office materials. We also calculated the raw materials, packaging and logistics of our products.
2. Avoid and reduceWherever possible, we avoid and reduce these CO2 emissions. We cover all of our power needs with green electricity and rely on efficient material utilisation and energy-saving processes while avoiding waste.
3. Offset CO2 emissions through climate protection projects with ClimatePartnerWe compensate for all unavoidable CO2 emissions by supporting climate protection projects. This makes us a climate-neutral company, and all of our products are climate-neutral. Climate protection projects save CO2 – with reforestation measures or by replacing technologies harmful to the environment with more climate-friendly alternatives. We support three climate protection projects: a reforestation project in Uruguay and two wind energy projects in India.
4. The “climate-neutral” labelWe label our products with the independent “climate-neutral” label. Via the tracking URL www.climatepartner.com/14644-2012-1001 you can learn more about our climate neutrality and the climate protection projects. This helps us ensure maximum transparency with regard to the climate neutrality of our company and our products.
