Sustainable Products & Packaging

Quality Lasts

At Leitz as part of ACCO Brands, we firmly believe that the best way to reduce environmental impact is to provide high quality, long lasting products. Having to replace broken or worn-out products within a short period of time means the environmental impact of raw material production, manufacture, transport of materials and finished goods and disposal of the old product are doubled or tripled

Our Sustainable Product Philosophy

Our Sustainable Product Philosophy

We have identified the key factors for our product ranges which will lead to products with a lower environmental impact – and a lower carbon footprint! This forms our product philosophy. If we focus on improving these aspects in comparison to previous models or standard / similar available versions of a product, we know the carbon footprint and overall environmental impact will be reduced. It may not always be possible to improve on all aspects at once, but each and every aspect we improve will lower the footprint of the product.

Leitz Recycle

Leitz Recycle

With our new eco friendly stationery range Leitz Recycle, you can both improve your office environment and the environment of our planet. Every product in the range is 100% recyclable and made from a high percentage of recycled materials.

Environmentally friendly Packaging

Environmentally friendly Packaging

We strive to reduce packaging wherever possible and to use materials responsibly. For example, we removed the PET window on our Leitz Stapler and Punch packaging, saving around 10 tonnes of plastic a year and the packaging for the Leitz Cosy range is entirely plastic free.
