How we make a difference
It is in our nature to help the planet
At Nature Planet we are proud to be working alongside PLAN International and Red Panda Network. Each time we sell a product from our PLAN and Red Panda Network range, 5 percent of the revenue is donated to the organizations.
Together with our dedicated customers and in cooperation with the organizations PLAN International we have built 16 schools in Nepal and Indonesia and saved Kamalari slave girls from poverty. But that is not all. Together with Save The Orangutan we have also helped conserve and replant forest areas surrounding the endangered orangutans and ensured that orphaned orangutans have been cared for and reintroduced into the wild where they belong.
PLAN International

Red Panda Network
Red Panda Network is a Nepalese NGO that is leading the fight to save the red panda. Unfortunately, our planet has lost half of its wild red pandas in just 20 years.
Their community-based red panda conservation programs began in just a few villages in eastern Nepal but have now been replicated in ten districts – 50% of Nepal’s red panda range.

3 ways we celebrate Corporate Social Responsibility
Supporting children’s education - SDG 4
|
|
"In Nature Planet we strongly believe that education is the best way to reduce poverty and ensure equal rights. Our efforts mainly support sub target 4.1(universal primary and secondary education); By 2030, ensure that all girls and boys complete free, equitable and quality primary and secondary education leading to relevant and effective learning outcomes and 4.5 (gender equality and inclusion): By 2030, eliminate gender disparities in education and ensure equal access to all levels of education and vocational training for the vulnerable, including persons with disabilities, indigenous peoples and children in vulnerable situations." |
Since 2009 Nature Planet has supported projects in underdeveloped countries focusing on enabling quality education for children. We do this through our partner Plan International and we do it by promoting Plan’s projects in our communication material, by developing special Plan product programs and by donating a share of our turnover to Plan International.
We have sponsored the building and renovating of 16 earthquake safe schools in remote areas of Indonesia and 1 earthquake safe school and two medical centers in Nepal.
Minimizing our environmental impact – SDG 12
|
|
"We wish to leave as small an environmental footprint as possible. We focus on reducing, reusing and recycling. Our efforts mainly support Sub target 12.2: Sustainable management and use of natural resources." |
At Nature Planet we work with Fair Trade manufacturers that are members of WFTO. We believe Fair Trade is one of the most powerful tools to reduce poverty in a sustainable way.
Our product development strategy is to always source environmentally “friendly” material and products where possible and our buildings use 100% green energy
This includes plastic products made from sugarcanes, recycled paper, recycled plush and recycled textile. We have an animal plush range made of reused plastic bottles, we use the Oeko-tex certification and we use 100% recycled stuffing in our plush ranges.
From 2021 and onwards we will not be purchasing any single use plastic for our products.
For the love of all animals – SDG 15
|
|
"In Nature Planet we support the conservation of natural habitats and biodiversity. Our efforts mainly support Sub target 15.5: Take urgent and significant action to reduce the degradation of natural habitats, halt the loss of biodiversity and, by 2020, protect and prevent the extinction of threatened species." |
We support the Red Panda Network (RPN) by donating 5% of the turnover from our Red Panda Network product range.
At Nature Planet we take pride in keeping our premises in a way that is friendly to insects and small animals and less friendly to the normal perception of looking “nice”. We use no chemicals on our premises, and we have designed an outdoor flower area as a bee-bar, for the benefit of the small pollinators and other insects.
