WITH RESPONSIBILITY FOR PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT
COMMITMENT
For us as spice traders, intact economic, ecological and social conditions are of essential importance, as they form the basis of our business model. This is all the more true as we obtain most of our raw materials from origins that are still considered developing or emerging countries. It is precisely in these countries that it is important to reconcile economy and ecology with social responsibility. In order for this valuable planet to be preserved for us and our children for a long time to come, we see it as our most personal responsibility to deal consciously with our environment both privately and in our daily work. For example, in the choice of means of transport for journeys or packaging materials for sample dispatch. We also support a number of selected projects:
Certified climate partner
A mangrove tree compensates over its lifetime approx. 1 ton CO2 – up to 5 times as much as other plants on average. The goal of Thor Heyerdahl Climate Park is to plant 100 million mangrove trees in parks such as Myanmar. After we learned that a flight from Hamburg to India and back consumes just under a ton of CO2, we decided: 1) to fly less and 2) to become a godfather for a mangrove tree for every necessary flight.
