Green Climbing

We only have one world. Let’s take care of it together.

As climbers, we share the responsibility of protecting and preserving climbing areas. The rocks, cliffs, and mountains we climb are not only beautiful, but also crucial to the delicate ecosystem. That’s why at KletterRetter, we are passionate about reducing our impact on the environment and promoting sustainability wherever possible.

How can we achieve this?

One way we achieve this is by offering environmentally friendly products that are sustainable and ethical, with minimal impact on the environment. But our commitment to the environment doesn’t end there. We actively participate in conservation efforts and promote sustainable climbing practices, including reducing the consumption of single-use plastics, leaving no trace when climbing, and supporting organizations that advocate for the protection of our natural spaces.

As part of the climbing community, you have the opportunity to serve as ambassadors for the environment. By working together and making small changes in your daily lives, you can have a big impact on the health and well-being of our planet. Let’s continue to prioritize sustainability both on and off the climbing wall. Together, we can preserve the natural world we love for future generations.

KLETTERRETTER AND THE ENVIRONMENT

Actions speak louder than words

We are doing our part in the fight against climate change by taking the following action:

PLANTING TREES

We work together with non profit organisations to plant hundreds trees each year and reduce our CO2 footprint.

1.5 DEGREES

We work with climate protection organizations to achieve the goal of making Germany climate-neutral by 2035 and complying with the 1.5-degree limit.

PACKAGING

We are constantly optimising our packaging to reduce or replace plastic and offer more environmentally friendly alternatives.

Bees

We support the protection and conservation of bees by making regular donations from the proceeds of our beeswax-based products.

Clean up days

We organise and participate in various actions such as clean up days to keep our forests and crags clean.

Local suppliers

We try to work as much as possible with local suppliers to avoid unnecessary transport. Many of our products are produced in Germany or in the EU.

Recycling

We reduce packaging waste by reusing shipping cartons and packaging wherever possible. Our packaging is licensed so that the packaging we place on the market is disposed of and recycled properly.
