Thinking about the future means acting today.
We Produce Sustainably
As a medium-sized family-owned company, we take responsibility — also for our environment. That’s why we have been relying on environmentally friendly production methods and measures for many years.
Our participation in the Ökoprofit program and our membership in the Environmental Partnership Hamburg demonstrate that we take the topic of sustainability seriously. You can read more about Ökoprofit in this interview with Simon Pless.
The range of our measures is as diverse as the opportunities they create for us and for the environment — from reusable packaging materials to the use of renewable energies. For many of our products, there are already more environmentally friendly alternatives available, and there will be even more in the future.

Our printing and production processes are harmless to both nature and people. Thanks to the use of water-based inks, the prints are completely odorless and therefore perfectly suited for indoor use.
The fact that “green printing” can also deliver high quality is demonstrated by latex printing. Durable, high-quality prints with vibrant colors allow for a wide range of applications.
Textile prints produced using the thermo-sublimation process are UV-resistant, certified according to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, and safe for both people and the environment. This method is suitable for all polyester fabrics – including Evolon, the eco-friendly banner material. Evolon is PVC-free and can be disposed of with regular household waste. The soft material is noticeably lighter, yet very robust and crease-free.
