Fair Trade
This product was manufactured under responsible treatment of nature as well as fair working conditions and has been awarded the Fairtrade seal. Fairtrade believes that the best way to eradicate poverty is to give farmers a fair price for their products and workers a fair wage for their work. Fair prices come first because farmers and workers in developing countries deserve decent incomes and humane work.
Biodegradable
The production of this product is climate neutral. The material consists of renewable raw materials such as corn, wheat or sugar cane. For their growth, the plants need carbon dioxide, which they take from the air. Therefore, the production of bioplastics removes CO₂ from the atmosphere - just as much as is later released when they are burned or decompose. So-called bioplastics are therefore considered an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional plastics.
Stainless steel
Stainless steel is very heat-resistant and durable. The material offers you a practical and sustainable alternative to plastic packaging. Stainless steel products are a good basis for starting your low-waste lifestyle.
Good Weave
The GoodWeave® seal of approval identifies carpets that have been manufactured without child labour. It also stands for the consideration of social and ecological standards such as fair wages, safe and hygienic working conditions and reasonable working hours of adult carpet weavers.
GOTS
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is a globally recognized standard for the processing of organically produced natural fibres. It ensures the safety and hygiene conditions in the production facilities as well as the compliance with social criteria and defines environmental requirements along the entire production chain. Our licence number is: CU844876.
Organic cotton
Organic cotton is a renewable raw material, whose use has many advantages. Growing organic cotton uses less water. In the event of a pest infestation, only biological means are used for control. In addition, the cotton is fertilized organically. Environmentally friendly cultivation is not only beneficial for the local people and soil, but also for you and your skin. Organic cotton is cultivated by small farmers and harvested gently, mostly by hand. The fibres are durable and long-lasting.
EcoVero Viscose
The EcoVero ™ viscose is developed and certified in Austria. The raw material comes from responsibly
managed forests. EcoVero™ viscose is produced using less water than conventional viscose, and it also produces 50% fewer emissions. The production process and the transparency of the supply chain make it a sustainable alternative to the usual viscose.
Tencel
Tencel fibres are completely integrated into the natural cycle and thus contribute to the ecological balance. In the manufacturing process, pulp from sustainably managed sources is used. Tencel is very gentle on the skin and biodegradable.
GRS
The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) is an international and fully-fledged product standard that applies largely to textiles. It ensures that social, environmental and chemical regulations are met during production. The aim of the GRS is to define requirements for the quality and specification of substances used. It also ensures good working conditions on site and implements compliance with ecological and chemical regulations in the manufacturing process.
Animal well-being
Our handmade wool accessories come from a manufactory in Nepal. The company focuses on equal opportunities and provides employment opportunities with fair wages for economically and socially disadvantaged people. The animals are raised under ecological conditions.
Reusable
Durable products are not only good for the environment, but also for your wallet. We set a high value on the fact that you can enjoy your favorite pieces for a long time.
Handmade pottery
Our handmade Blue Pottery soap dishes come from a very special factory in Jaipur, India. The founder fell in love with the traditional Blue Pottery - a special type of pottery. She realized that the needy rural population could be given a chance to earn a living - without having to leave their homes in the country.
In the meantime, the traditional art of pottery secures the livelihood of more than 150 potters from four different villages.
Resuable
No new raw materials were used for our recycled products. They are made exclusively from recycled materials. This results in less waste of resources and reduces the level of environmental pollution.
