Diverse commitment
Equal opportunities and respect for one another are deeply rooted in our corporate culture. For us, taking on social responsibility is therefore both a heartfelt concern and a matter of course. This page presents various projects and institutions from the fields of environmental protection, culture, education and social participation that FACTUREE – The Online Manufacturer supports.
Climate action: The Prony Wind Power climate project in New Caledonia
FACTUREE – The Online Manufacturer has been compensating for all CO2 emissions generated by shipping since 2017 by purchasing certificates from our partner South Pole, and is thus committed to the preservation of the climate and a future worth living for future generations.
In 2020 alone, we purchased more than 2000 certificates generated by the Prony Wind Power project in New Caledonia.
2000 certificates are equivalent to offsetting 2000 tons of CO2 - which offsets the emissions generated by our shipments. In fact, they are significantly overcompensated for.
Gender equality: Girls' Day - Girls' Future Day
There is still significant gender inequality in technical occupations. In the case of training occupations, CNC machining is one of the most unequally distributed occupational fields with a male share of 95%, and the share of female students in classical engineering studies is currently only just over 20%.

We welcome young girls who are interested in technical professions and are happy to support this cause. FACTUREE – The Online Manufacturer therefore took part in the Girls' Day - Girls' Future Day 2019, and was able to welcome two inquisitive schoolgirls from the 9th grade of the Otto-Nagel-Gymnasium in Berlin-Biesdorf on the 28th of March, providing them with a first insight into an exciting and promising vocational field.
