Data-driven sustainability.
Our eco-database.
With our proprietary eco-database, we have developed a unique tool that shows the environmental performance of each of the annually well over 3,500 items in our collections, even at the product level. With the help of the eco-database, the carbon footprint of each individual shoe can be calculated and reduced in a targeted manner from the very first design of a new model.
The database is based on ingredients, material consumption and environmental aspects such as CO2, water and resource consumption. In addition, our eco-database can be used to measurably illustrate sustainable improvements to existing articles. An optimisation is therefore already carried out for each individual model at the very start of its development.
Award-winning sustainable.
In 2022, we received the Environmental Management Award from the Austrian Federal Ministry for Environment and Climate Protection for our eco-database. In 2023, we were awarded the German Innovation Award in the category “Business to Business – Information Technologies” for our Eco-database as well as the Austrian Business eAward in the category “Sustainability and Smart Data”. And in 2024, we have received the Trigos, Austria’s prestigious award for sustainability and CSR, in the climate protection category.
