Hartmann – climate neutral egg packaging
Organic, free range or barn farming: there are hardly any other food products where consumers are as well informed about product quality and ecological criteria as with eggs. Those who take these aspects seriously also pay more and more attention to the packaging.
Hartmann egg packaging is made of recycled paper and is biodegradable. However, in protecting the environment and climate Hartmann goes even further. In 2013, it was the first packaging manufacturer in the egg industry to introduce climate neutral packaging. Since then, the company has launched several million climate neutral egg cartons together with its customers.
The reduction of carbon emissions in the production process is a big step towards climate neutrality. Hartmann reduces harmful emissions as far as possible. Unavoidable emissions are calculated by ClimatePartner on a customer-specific basis and are offset by supporting certified projects. Hartmann is currently participating in the Santa Maria forest protection project in Brazil. The rainforest has an area of 71,000 hectares and can store 840,000 tons of CO2 per year. Furthermore, this project also helps to support local communities, preserve biodiversity, improve education and create jobs.
The brand name Hartmann is usually not written on the packaging - but you can recognize the egg cartons by the "climate neutral" label from ClimatePartner. Next time in the supermarket, do not only take a look at the quality information of the eggs, but also at the packaging label.
