Sustainability
Making better products is at the heart of our mission, and that doesn’t just mean better looking or better to use. It means doing better. And that starts with our first product, Ear (1).
First, we worked with internationally recognised third parties to assess Ear (1)’s environmental impact. To completely neutralise its 1.78kg carbon footprint, we started by offsetting the electricity used in the manufacturing process. Then, we purchased carbon credits from Verified Carbon Standard (managed by Verra) – a globally recognised standard for certifying carbon emissions reductions – to offset the remaining emissions.
We want to keep going beyond having a carbon neutral product. This is just the first step in our journey towards becoming a carbon neutral company.
