The green group goes sustainability
The companies of the Bionatic Group are committed to sustainability. In the case of greenbox and ecoware, this includes, among other things, carbon neutrality. And this refers not only to the operations but also to the products. Specifically, this means: Through the Climate Safe 360° Initiative and via Climate Partner for the Biozoyg brand, we ensure that all CO2 emissions, from resources and production to operations, transport, and all the way to the customer, are fully offset.
At greenbox, the company's own calculations of emission factors for the products and raw material groups are performed in-house. In a next step, the calculations are verified by independent third-party institutions (such as SGS or Intertek). They check whether the calculations are correct and certify this accordingly. Afterwards, the emissions are offset in international climate protection projects by Gold Standard.
Why did greenbox choose Climate Safe 360° ?
For the calculation and for the compensation of the emissions in a climate protection project, greenbox has relied for many years on Climate Partner as a long-standing, experienced partner and on the Climate Partner "climate compensated" logo. The emissions of a company usually make up less than 1% of the total emissions, if one would consider the products as well. Since greenbox does much more than just compensate for the company's low CO2 emissions, this should also be visible in the Climate Neutral logo. The new Climate Safe 360° logo should communicate this accordingly to the outside.
Here, the CO2 emissions of the articles are calculated by Climate Partner. The offsetting is then carried out by Climate Partner in a VCS climate protection project selected by ecoware. An illustration of the specific approach and the chosen climate protection project can be found here: ClimateID Tracking Ecoware GmbH & Co. KG.
The articles are then marked with the following label:
In addition, ecoware meets the Climate Pledge Friendly requirements with their Biozoyg Shop on Amazon, identified by the following seal:
