Taking responsibility for the climate through carbon insetting

Remei is driving the system change

Through carbon insetting, the process of compensating carbon emissions within a company’s own supply chain, Remei is successfully involving its production partners in the company’s own compensation solutions. With its innovative business model, the company has succeeded for years in offsetting emissions generated in the region where its own raw material is grown.

Insetting measures are possible only in a transparent supply chain, where each and every emission can be traced back to its origin.

“When we started our climate-conscious production efforts ten years ago, it was clear that we would look for a solution that generates a direct added value for the cotton farmers in our supply chain. That was the initial approach to the insetting we practice today. We have succeeded by financing compensation projects, such as biogas plants in India and efficient furnaces in our cultivation areas in Tanzania.”
