SUSTAINABILITY
Everything is connected with each other. There is no beauty without health.
And there is no health without a healthy planet.
Sustainability is the focus at Ogaenics
For us, sustainability is not a phrase, but part of our brand philosophy. Our top priority is to create a balance between people and nature to ensure a healthy livelihood for all.
You can join us on this mission! Learn more about what we’re doing at Ogaenics to make the world a little better on this page.
Organic cultivation for a healthy environment
At Ogaenics, we place special emphasis on sustainability and use only the best organic plant-based raw materials.
In organic farming, farmers avoid chemical inputs such as pesticides, herbicides and insecticides, relying instead on natural methods such as crop rotation, composting and attracting beneficial insects.
In this way, we support not only your health, but also our planet. In doing so, we also make sure to use local resources and avoid unnecessary transport routes in order to reduce our carbon footprint.
Sustainability in packaging and shipping
Our environmentally friendly packaging and shipping solutions contribute to sustainability and protect the environment. Our product packaging consists of 96% recyclable glass and FSC-certified paper and cardboard (FSC = Forest Stewardship Council). This ensures that our packaging also protects the environment.
For shipping we use DHL GoGreen to ship climate neutral. Our investments in climate protection projects offset the emissions caused by shipping.
You can count on it
Ogaenics’ certifications all serve to prove and guarantee the sustainability and environmental friendliness of Ogaenics products for you.
Organic certification
Organic certification guarantees you that our supplements are made from organically grown plants and fruits, without the use of chemicals and pesticides and without genetic engineering.
PETA Vegan Certificate
The PETA Vegan certificate guarantees that Ogaenics does not use animal ingredients in its products and does not test on animals. All our raw materials are produced according to these guidelines.
1% for the Planet Certification
The 1% for the Planet certification guarantees you that Ogaenics will donate a portion of the proceeds to environmental organizations to promote sustainability and environmental protection. This is audited annually by the organization.
Giving back to the planet: 1% for the Planet
1% for the Planet is a network created to prevent greenwashing and certify serious donations for environmental protection. Membership obliges full transparency.
That’s exactly what we want! That’s why we at Ogaenics are proud members of 1% for the Planet. As a result, we donate one percent of our sales each year to one of the organizations that address pressing environmental issues. With your support, we not only invest in the future of our planet, but also drive the development of innovative environmental solutions.
We support One Earth - One Ocean e.V.
To combat the impact of plastic on our environment and the looming climate crisis, we support One Earth – One Ocean e.V. (oeoo) with 1% of our sales in 2023. This is an environmental organization that works to clean up oceans and waters and prevent plastic waste pollution.
To do this, they are developing technologies and methods to remove waste from the water and recover recyclable material. They are also committed to environmental education and raising public awareness to protect the oceans.
With every purchase at Ogaenics you support One Earth - One Ocean e.V.
You are probably wondering what you can do for One Earth – One Ocean e.V. (oeoo) by buying an Ogaenics product?
For example, if you decide to buy one of our organic multivitamin complexes for 79.90 €, One Earth – One Ocean e.V. can use our donation share to fish almost one kilogram of plastic and garbage out of the waters and then professionally sort, recycle or dispose of it.
Our commitment against the pollution of waters
The oceans are an important part of the global ecosystem. They contribute to oxygen production, climate regulation and food production. By 2050, more plastic than fish are expected to be swimming in our oceans if pollution continues at the current rate.
Plastic waste that pollutes the oceans poses these dangers:
Microplastic formation
Due to the influence of UV radiation, salt water and wave movements, plastic waste in the sea decomposes into microplastic particles. These are ingested by marine animals and can enter the food chain – putting your health at risk.
Animal entanglement
Plastic debris can lead to the death of marine life if it becomes entangled or entangled in plastic bags or the like.
Ecosystem pollution
Plastic waste can damage the natural habitats of marine organisms and thus affect entire ecosystems.
Climate change
Plastic waste in the ocean also releases greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change.
For us, reducing plastic waste and preventing microplastics are important steps towards sustainability in order to minimize the negative impact on marine ecology and climate change.
