ANNY FOR OUR PLANET
RESPONSIBILITY
GETTING THERE IS HALF THE FUN
Our Vision of the Future
Vision: We see the beauty in every person. Beauty requires a planet worth living on. We want to take responsibility for this—boldly striving for a sustainable, vibrant future.
Our guiding principle: THERE IS NO PLAN(ET) B!
At ANNY, the future of our planet is close to our hearts!
We therefore aim to constantly evolve and improve. Our goal is to become more sustainable step by step in the areas where we have direct influence:
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 employ over 250 home-based workers from the region. This is one of our diverse working models.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PROJECT: OUR OWN FOREST PROJECT
In cooperation with our partner DEUTIM, we are supporting an environmental protection project that is making the “Augsburg Westliche Wälder” nature reserve “fit for the future” and helping to preserve the local forest for future generations in the long term. We achieve this by reforesting clear-cut areas and converting monocultures into climate-stable mixed forests. We contribute to the protection of nature and can restore biodiversity. We want to preserve the beauty of regional forests and habitats. To do this, we plant a fixed number of trees in our ARTDECO Group forest every year for the next 10 years.
COMMITMENT
Every year, we feed over 80,000 kWh of self-generated energy into the grid from our rooftop solar panels.
CO² REDUCTION
Our shipments are sent via DHL GoGreen. As part of its GoGreen program, DHL invests in climate protection projects.
ÖKOSTROM
Since 2022, we have been sourcing green electricity for our company premises, and since 2024 for our warehouse site as well; we have also expanded our network of EV charging stations and now offer 17 charging points.
SOZIALES ENGAGEMENT
Kontinuierlich unterstützen wir verschiedene Organisationen durch Spenden und Aufträge, um deren Arbeit hinzu einem fairen menschlichen Miteinander zu fördern. Auch hands-on durch unser eigenes Corporate Volunteering Programm.
SUSTAINABILITY PROJECT TRANSPORT PACKAGING
Company-wide, sustainability matters to ANNY throughout the entire value chain. This also designing our transport packaging to be more sustainable – not only at ANNY, but also our partners’ sites. In this way, we strive ceaselessly to identify new savings potential and implement material changes accordingly.
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.”
Sustainability Compass
We are guided by four Sustainable Development Goals:
HIGH STANDARDS, HIGH VALUES
ANNY aims to assume social, environmental, and economic responsibility for employees, customers, and future generations. Guided by our values—greater transparency, responsibility, and innovative capability—we intend to continuously optimize our processes and products step by step.
OUR JOURNEY TOWARDS GREATER RESPONSIBILITY...
…is an ongoing process that requires commitment, perseverance, and a willingness to rethink and improve upon the status quo. Our goal is to achieve a long-term balance between the three pillars: environmental protection, social equity, and corporate governance.
Our corporate values—transparency, responsibility, and a capacity for innovation—guide us on this journey. Furthermore, strong partnerships and cohesion are essential for us to consistently implement sustainable practices on a global scale.
