my world, our earth (our planet)

Inspired by innovation, we are passionate about problem-solving design. And true to our belief that all design should be defined by both purpose and pleasure, we have a new challenge: to use sustainable design to restore and preserve the beauty of our natural environment.

How? By researching, optimizing and minimizing every aspect of our processes.
In line with the 2021 vision – we are currently being certified according to ISO 14001 company – we’ve made eco-friendly design more than a best practice goal: it is the driving force behind every aspect of our production.

Von Innovationen Inspiriert, sind wir vom Problem-Solving Design begeistert und unserer Überzeugung treu, dass jedes Design sowohl durch Zweck als auch durch Vergnügen definiert werden sollte. Deshalb haben wir jetzt eine neue Herausforde-rung: Nachhaltiges Design verwenden, um die Schönheit unserer natürlichen Um-gebung wiederherzustellen und zu behüten. Wie? Indem wir jeden Aspekt unserer Prozesse erforschen, optimieren und mini-mieren. In Übereinklang mit der Vision 2021 - wir werden derzeit nach ISO 14001 zertifiziert - haben wir von umweltfreundlichem Design mehr als ein Best-Practice Ziel ge-macht: Es ist die treibende Kraft hinter jedem Aspekt unserer Produktion.
