Schneider’s Eco-Friendly Production: Environmental Milestones
Schneider’s journey toward environmental stewardship is marked by bold strides and tangible achievements. The company operates on 100% clean, green electricity, showcasing both an admirable and visionary commitment to our planet. With an 85% recycling rate, Schneider® turns potential waste into valuable resources, reflecting a closed-loop philosophy that’s as cyclically efficient as nature itself. Moreover, sourcing over 93% of materials regionally doesn’t just reduce carbon footprint, it strengthens local economies and fosters community resilience.

Schneider’s ingenuity shines through its product line, where each pen and marker demonstrate that longevity need not come at the planet’s expense. These writing tools are designed to be long-lasting and refillable, negating the throw-away culture that plagues ecosystems. But it doesn’t end there—innovation flows through every aspect of production:
- Bio-Based Plastics: Schneider® embraces the future with materials derived from renewable sources, reducing reliance on finite, polluting fossil fuels.
- Recycled Plastics: With a nod to the past, Schneider® reincorporates materials, giving them new life as quality writing instruments that tell a story of transformation.
- Climate Neutral Products: In perhaps its boldest move, Schneider® ensures that every scribble and sketch contributes zero net emissions, embodying true climate responsibility.The Pen Is Mightier When It's Green
