Description
What is the engagement about?
Plant trees, save lives
13 million hectares. This is how much forest area disappears worldwide every year. The cause: settlement, agriculture, illegal felling and raw material extraction. This endangers the habitat of many people and animals. Sustainable afforestation of our forests is therefore vital and also protects our climate: trees filter the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and convert it into vital oxygen through photosynthesis.
Global partnership, local impact
The non-profit organisation has been planting native trees in tropical areas together with the local population since 2004. To do this, Eden Reforestation Projects specifically works with people who live in regions affected by deforestation. The organisation employs the local population at a fixed salary, provides them with the technical knowledge and equips them with all the tools they need.

Does your packaging contribute to such deforestation?
Of course, the production of our packaging also consumes resources. However, we try to minimise our environmental impact by:
a) sourcing our materials exclusively from FSC® certified forests, reclaimed materials and other controlled sources; and
b) Offsetting the production of our packaging by supporting environmental organisations such as Eden Reforestation Projects.
c) promoting our more sustainable, fully recyclable mono-plastic packaging to our customers.
