1% for the planet
As a proud member of the global 1% For The Planet movement, we contribute to the financial endowment of ecological initiatives by allocating one percent of our total annual income to certified environmental projects . In the firm belief that together we can achieve more, in 2022 we joined the altruistic network of over 5,000 companies and individuals in more than 60 countries. Worldwide, over US$ 360 million has already been used for initiatives that are passionate about improving the state of our planet. There is no planet B.
Socially Inclusive Production
If we could, we would. But we just can't do it alone anymore. Fortunately, we have really great local production partners. Our stickers are made in various workshops for people with disabilities. Because the many individual processing steps have a different level of complexity, there is someone for each process who is up to the job: from folding packaging to removing the weeds from complicated motifs. We are aware of the sometimes understandable criticism of employing such institutions, and our close friendly relationships with the people there give both them and us the genuine feeling of maintaining a meaningful cooperation.
Promoting Sustainable Mobility
We are and will remain enthusiastic cyclists. This is the basis of our company's purpose, the core of what we do. Consequently, we see the promotion of cycling as an essential part of the mobility transition, not least for climate protection reasons. We are a member of the industry association Zukunft Fahrrad and a supporting member of Changing Cities , both organizations that are passionate about this goal. Bicycles are retro, but they are also the future!
Good Cause Discount
Non-profit initiatives that support a good cause are rarely among the financially strong institutions. Therefore, we offer discounts on our products and services, not only for organizations that are formally certified as non-profit, but also when we can - entirely subjectively - recognize the meaningful approach. Prices are never set in stone!
Sustainability in Everyday Life
Sustainability is more than packaging made from recycled paper. We subject all of our processes in everyday life to constant review in terms of their resource consumption. Even small things add up! Examples? OK. We can cover most of our production steps in and around Berlin. That means short transports, and these take place by cargo bike, we don't have a company car. Green electricity is a given anyway. We try to avoid plastic and packaging as much as possible. By the way, it is also sustainable to maintain a trusting relationship with your business partners. This avoids unnecessary transaction costs and unpleasant surprises. We know that the production of reflective materials is unfortunately not the most environmentally friendly. We can't change much about that (yet). But we can ensure that our products are very durable. And the great thing about the reflection principle: It doesn't need any energy, it always works!
Solidaricorn & Visibee
Our mascots have committed themselves to specific goals. We launched the " Solidaricorn " at the beginning of the first lockdown during the Corona pandemic and have now established it permanently. We donate the proceeds from the sticker sales of this product to various civil society initiatives. The " Visibee " is our reflective giveaway especially for kids. Projects dedicated to traffic education and safety for children are cordially invited to apply for a load of free Visibees.
Kid's Corner
Because it is absurdly difficult for us to throw away the reflective leftovers from our sticker production, we decided to keep them instead and make them available to children so that they can make things with them. In regular, free upcycling workshops, the kids can use their creativity with the help of fun tools and conjure up reflectors in all imaginable shapes. You can read more information about the campaign here . Upcoming dates for our "Kid's Corner" can be found in our events calendar .
