We are thrilled to share that our company has been awarded the prestigious EcoVadis Silver Medal for our commitment to sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR). This achievement places us in the top 25% of all companies evaluated by EcoVadis, reflecting our dedication to excellence in the following areas:

At Geotobox, we believe that business success should not come at the expense of our planet. We are proud to announce that our supply chain has been audited and verified as compliant with the EU Deforestation-Free Regulation (EUDR).

Achieving EUDR compliance was a rigorous but rewarding process. It represents a core part of our commitment to ethical sourcing and environmental stewardship. Here are the steps we took:

• Supply Chain Mapping as Your Request: We can trace our relevant commodities back to the specific plots of land where they were produced.
• Geospatial Data Collection: We collected precise geolocation data for all source plots to ensure they were not on land deforested after the December 31, 2020 cut-off date.
• Rigorous Due Diligence: We implemented a robust due diligence system to assess and mitigate any risk of deforestation in our supply chain, ensuring compliance with local laws and human rights standards.
• Third-Party Audit: Our systems, processes, and data were successfully audited by an independent third-party firm, TÜV Rheinland, confirming our adherence to all EUDR requirements.

Transparency is fundamental to trust. You can contact us to review the documentation that validates our EUDR compliance.

Our efforts to minimize our environmental footprint include implementing energy-efficient practices, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and managing waste responsibly.

We are committed to fostering a safe and inclusive workplace, upholding labor rights, and promoting diversity and equal opportunity for all employees.

Integrity is at the core of our business. We adhere to the highest ethical standards, ensuring transparency, fairness, and responsible business conduct.

We prioritize sustainability in our supply chain, working closely with our suppliers to ensure ethical practices and social responsibility.

This recognition is a testament to our ongoing efforts to make a positive impact on society and the environment. We are dedicated to continuous improvement and will strive to reach even greater heights in our sustainability journey.

SMETA (Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit) enables businesses to evaluate their sites and suppliers, providing insight into working conditions within their supply chains. Our factory has been audited by Sedex under the SMETA 4-Pillar framework.

REACH stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals. This regulation addresses the production and use of chemicals, assessing their potential impacts on human health and the environment. We are proud to report that our bags have passed REACH compliance.

RoHS, which stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances, affects the entire electronics industry and many electrical products. We are pleased to announce that our bags have passed RoHS compliance.

Some of our products are made using FSC-certified materials. Additionally, our factory holds FSC certification, ensuring responsible forest management practices.

We are committed to using recycled materials in our products. Our boxes incorporate corrugated board and greyboard with a recycled rate of over 75%. Mailing cartons and some bags also achieve a recycled rate of over 60%. All paper and board waste is collected by recycling companies. We continuously strive to reduce the use of non-paper materials, such as OPP lamination and magnets.

Thank you for your support as we work towards a more sustainable future.
