What we're doing

reidinger-pen

Climate contribution

We avoid and reduce our CO2 emissions as much as possible. Any CO2 emissions that we cannot avoid are compensated through global climate protection projects.

Natural raw materials

We love pencils! 95% of our products are made from natural, certified and renewable raw materials. Can there be anything more sustainable than a purely natural product?

Code of Conduct (CoC)

As part of our CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility), we commit ourselves and our business partners to comply with the Code of Conduct. Our Code of Conduct is constantly being developed.

Photovoltaic installation

With our photovoltaic installation on the company roof, we are able to cover approx. 50 % of the energy requirements of our office in Hammelburg by ourselves.

100% green electricity

All the electricity that our photovoltaic installation does not generate itself is purchased from naturstrom AG and is 100% green electricity.

100% clean biogas

We purchase 100% biogas and therefore not only make a contribution to climate and environmental protection, but also support the expansion of renewable energies.

Use of paper

We use recycled paper, FSC-certified paper and Blue Angel certified paper. Our print products are printed with ecological printing inks. And we are constantly looking for ways to further reduce the use of paper.

Social commitment

We know that there are many people who have been less fortunate. We regularly support charitable and non-profit organizations with donations in both money and in kind.

Achieving more together

reidinger-pen

 

Since " Fridays for Future " we have all become more and more aware of the topic of sustainability. To prevent global warming, we must significantly improve our CO2 footprint. There are three main points how we can do this:

Avoidance of CO2 emissions > Reduction of CO2 emissions > Compensation of CO2 emissions

Help us make the world a better place. Every little bit helps. And who knows, maybe we already convinced you to act more sustainably. Even the decision for a natural product as part of your promotional activities can be helpful!
