Less climate impact through CO2 compensation
We have been 100% climate neutral since January 2020. This means that all emissions related to our products, logistics and our company are fully offset. The certified climate projects for compensation are located in Ghana and Rwanda.
Less waste by saving on packaging
Right from the start, we have dispensed with folding boxes, which - let's be honest - usually end up in the garbage after unpacking. Instead, like Tetris, we print all legal information directly on the products. Our natural cosmetics come in blue glass from EU production, which blocks UV light and thus ensures that the products last longer. So far, the bottles have been disposable, so they belong in the recycling bin for green glass. In the longer term, we are aiming for a reusable system.

Less environmental impact through organic raw materials and water renunciation
We use organic ingredients where possible. Because raw materials from organic farming are demonstrably better for soil fertility and biodiversity and thus for the climate. However, not using water in our products also has a major advantage: our products are highly concentrated. The lower weight means less CO2 emissions during transport and you get more for your money.
By the way, organic is not only better for the climate, but also better for your skin.

Less packaging waste thanks to the reusable system for shipping
Online trade is growing and with it packaging waste is reaching record numbers. Getting rid of the folding boxes around the products is a start, but not enough for us. That's why we thought about how we could also save on shipping packaging. Et voilà: With the reusable box (Dispobox) from Swiss Post, you can have your order of two or more products delivered to us without a shipping box. And it's postage free, we'll cover the additional costs.
