Carbon footprint

Every product we make has a footprint. We calculated it for the whole of 2025 and divided it per item: DEFRA 2025 emission factors, transport by parcels, services and marketing by spend (GHG Protocol). We keep refining the method together with our suppliers.

≈ 1.0 kg CO₂e per item. Roughly like driving 6 km by car.

What we do about it

We print in Slovakia and Czechia. No air freight. Our warehouse sits next to the printer in Orava, so finished products do not travel for nothing.
We do not shrink-wrap diaries one by one. We use bulk packaging to cut down on plastic.
We ship in recycled cardboard and, when we can, in boxes our suppliers sent us goods in.
For trips and small transfers we book shared transport and BlaBlaCar.
We print to pre-orders. If something does not sell, it does not end up in the bin but in our outlet or in schools.

What you can do

Order more things at once. One parcel instead of three.
Choose a pickup point or locker instead of home delivery. So the courier does not drive out for a single parcel.
Buy second quality and sale items. We also work with production seconds. Everything usable is cheaper in our second quality section. You save money and rescue something that would not get a chance elsewhere.
Buy only what you will really use. The smallest footprint belongs to the diary that never had to be made.
