FOR A BEAUTIFUL PLANET

HOUSTON, WE HAVE EMISSIONS

We like reaching for the stars, but far-fetched goals are of little help when it comes to climate protection. To keep our feet on the ground and make an active and real contribution to environmental protection, we rely on the findings of science. We have therefore had our climate targets officially reviewed and confirmed by the professionals at the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi).

OUR SCIENCE-BASED TARGETS

46 % REDUCTION

of greenhouse gas emissions from Scopes 1 and 2 by 2030 compared to the reference year 2019. Scope 1 comprises direct emissions from our own sources (e.g. exhaust fumes from company cars). Scope 2 are indirect emissions from purchased energy (electricity and natural gas used at the company sites).

SCOPE 3

Collection of Scope 3 Emissions and initiation of reduction measures. Scope 3 comprises emissions that arise indirectly from the company's activities along the value chain (e.g. production and transportation of goods).

Mind your own business first

Together with the climate protection organization myclimate Deutschland gGmbH, we once again calculated our corporate carbon footprint in 2023. With many small and large measures, we were able to drastically reduce the CO₂e emissions of our company headquarters and our locations in Germany. However, we still have a lot of work to do, particularly along the value chain.

2%

reduction of total CO₂ emissions, 3,335.21 t CO₂ in 2023 compared to 3,420.2 in the previous year.

39 %

degree of self-sufficiency due to our photovoltaic systems. With a total of 162,548 kWh of electricity produced and a direct use rate of 47 %.

73 %

reduction in electricity-related CO₂ emissions. 15.1 t CO₂ in 2023 compared to 56.6 t in the previous year.

7 %

reduction in emissions from the transportation of goods. 2,092.6 t CO₂e in 2023, compared to 2,257.3 t in 2022.

Naked and no filters: our success so far

We have almost reached the first of our science-based targets! We only need to reduce CO₂ emissions by just under 3% in Scopes 1 and 2. Sounds good, doesn't it? And while it is an honorable achievement indeed, it cannot be left unsaid that most of our emissions are generated in Scope 3.

ON THE ONE HAND:

43.3 % CO₂ savings in Scopes 1 and 2 (equivalent to 167.5 t CO₂).

ON THE OTHER HAND:

93% of our CO₂ emissions are generated in Scope 3 (3,135 t in 2023).

Life in plastic, it’s not fantastic

We want your new favorite piece to arrive clean and undamaged. We don't want you to end up with a mountain of plastic at the same time. That's why we use less plastic, renewable raw materials, and reusable packaging.

The packaging for shipments from our online store is plastic-free and thanks to our optimized, lighter grass-based boxes, we have already been able to save 5.2 t of material.

But that's not enough for us. Which is why we've been using reusable shipping boxes from the start-up hey circle in our intralogistics since fall of 2022.

Let's talk about Product.

Immense resource consumption, precarious working conditions, or the exploitation of animals - these are all problems of the fashion industry to which we belong. That's why we clearly position ourselves against fast fashion through our values and products.

Let's talk about people and actions.

We are committed to the people within our company, along our supply chain and beyond. For their well-being and their rights - so that they can foster their personal beauty.
