Energizing sustainable growth
All our products are manufactured in an ethically sound environment, using locally sourced materials, recycled cardboard and FSC paper to name a few, but there is so much more…
Raw materials
- We use 100% recycled cardboard on all our products
- All the paper we use is FSC® certified under certificate FSC-C168836
- All inks and glues used are environmentally friendly and from natural origin
- Ecoboards use less material or CO2 to produce so less in the loop
- Our puzzles can be packed in paper bags and our boxes can be closed by wafer seales
Sourcing
- 90% of our raw materials and parts are manufactured in the Netherlands to ensure the lowest possible CO2 transport emissions
- We select our suppliers based on their social ethical and environmental commitment
- We actively work with those suppliers to continuously improve their production techniques and waste recycling to reduce the overall footprint of the product
- Resulting in tangible results like plastic free packaging, non plastic plastics and CO2 neutral cardboard
Energy
- LED lights throughout the entire production facility
- No additional heating in the production facility through repurposing of excess machine energy
- No fossil fuel based electricity
- Energy usage as an active consideration in investment
Efficiency
- We consistently aim at improving our efficiency not only to improve the cost efficiency but also to improve working conditions, quality control and reduction of the footprint through less waste or higher output in less time
- The smart use of automatization and robotization are a great tool to achieve this. Developing machines that have the ergonomics for the workers in mind allowing them to stay with our company for 50 years
Waste Management
And in the end there is the twofold goal of avoiding waste to start with and making sure to have a comprehensive waste recycling system for all unavoidable waste. This means for instance that all waste paper, cardboard and plastic goes back in the loop.
