Sustainability - All you need, without the waste

OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR TOMORROW

Sustainability is more than just a trend for us – it is an integral part of our philosophy. At YOU MAWO, we see it as our duty to make environmentally friendly and ethically responsible decisions that create a positive impact not only today but also for the future.

Climate neutral

In collaboration with “Fokus-Zukunft”, we made sure to reduce our CO2 footprint to a bare minimum. Since January 2021 we are a climate neutrally certified company.

RESPONSIBILITY IN PRODUCTION

Our production operates on a closed water cycle, enabling us to use valuable resources sustainably and responsibly. We focus on efficient processes to minimize waste and maximize the longevity of our products. Our eyewear is crafted from high-performance materials known for their durability and resilience, allowing us to significantly reduce resource consumption and waste in the long term.

Nerdy fact: our CO2 emissions are 3x less than the traditional eyewear industry

In collaboration with our technology partner EOS and the Fraunhofer-Institut, we carried out a scientific study, focusing on a sustainability lifecycle analysis, comparing our manufacturing processes to the traditional acetate production.

Save the Oceans

Together with our partner Clean Hub and their collaborator Green Worms Waste Management in Edavanna, India, we actively fight against plastic pollution in our oceans. Together, we ensure that plastic waste does not end up in the environment but is properly recycled. For every pair of glasses sold, we collect double the amount of plastic waste generated during production and shipping. This initiative helps us contribute to reducing global plastic pollution.

RESPONSIBLE PARTNERSHIPS

We continuously strive to establish new partnerships that have a sustainable impact on our environment and society. Our goal is to support projects that actively contribute to preserving biodiversity and improving living conditions in affected regions. Through this commitment, we help drive long-term positive change.
