What we do
We are, as we all are, happy with our earth and as we love to go out sailing a lot, we want to keep the earth as healty as possible for our kids and loved ones.
During the past years we have been searching what and how we could structure and define our carbon footprint. We have also been amazed by all the greenwashing that is going on around us. We think the customer knows better and should be given full insight.
Therefore we are in the progress of having our full carbon footprint identified by using the internationally accepted 3 level approach.
Our current progress
As the calculation is in progress, we are not doing nothing. As starters, our warehouse has been provided with solar panels so that all electricity that we use during our picking and packing is at least green! Furthermore, on a yearly basis, we contribute electricity to the neighboring houses! Furthermore we have stopped using pre-printed carton boxes and move towards the brownish carton which is the most carbon low carton there is.
Our next steps
The key step is to identify how much carbon is produced by weaving and the production of our covers. However, for that we need some time. However, we are determined to become carbon net zero in the short term!
