ANNY FOR OUR PLANET

SUSTAINABILITY

Read on for what sustainability really means to us, what we already do in this area and what we plan to implement going forward.

GETTING THERE IS HALF THE FUN

A VISION FOR A BETTER TOMORROW

We acknowledge our potential and undertake to do our bit in a more sustainable world. We aim to produce less waste and make our operations more sustainable – throughout the entire supply chain. From production to packaging to retail delivery. Of course, our efforts continue, but we are striving step by step to be more future-proof.

THERE IS NO PLAN(ET) B!

At ANNY, we care about the Earth’s future!

Developing and improving is our ongoing quest. In the process, we want to improve our sustainability whenever possible. Read more here about what we are already doing in this area today:

Klimaneutrale Faltschachteln | ANNY

USE OF FSC-CERTIFIED AND CLIMATE NEUTRAL FOLDING CARTONS

We use FSC-certified paper for all our ANNY folding boxes. We also use mineral-oil-free printing inks, most of which are made from renewable raw materials
and made using zero cobalt.

CORPORATE CITIZENSHIP

We are proud to say that 272 members of our company workforce already work from home in the region.

CLIMATE-NEUTRAL COMPANY

Our company is climate-neutral. We work with Climate Partner, which manufactures clean cooking stoves through a local cooperative in Rwanda, on a climate protection project to offset our company’s carbon footprint. Traditionally, families here cook over a three-stone fire. With that in mind, using cooking stoves helps households cut their wood consumption considerably and thus protect Nyungwe Forest National Park from deforestation.

USE OF RECYCLING PAPER

The bubble wrap, which serves as the filling material in our ANNY product shipping, has been switched to recycled paper.

JOIN US ON OUR JOURNEY

OUR PRIORITIES

At ANNY, we want to examine different dimensions of sustainability in business challenges. In other words, questioning and changing how we develop, produce and act. Because nothing outweighs safety and quality for us. Other musts include being brave, taking responsibility and setting challenging goals. After all: “There is no plan(et) B.”

THE QUESTIONS WE PONDER

In the coming weeks and months, we at ANNY will be examining the following issues more closely:

  • How best can we contribute towards a circular economy?
  • How can we use more recyclates going forward, without sacrificing safety?
  • What can we avoid, what can we reduce, and where can we streamline even further?
  • What is our carbon footprint and what can we do to reduce our emissions?
  • How can we continue our social commitment?

STAY SUSTAINABLE AND SAFE ON THE MOVE

Shipping in environmentally friendly packaging is as important to us as our strictly selected ingredients. Accordingly, the cardboard and filling material are recyclable and can be disposed of in the paper garbage can after use and recycled in our existing material cycles.
