Keeping global warming within 1.5°C in line with the Paris Agreement

Together with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), we have set a validated, science-based target: By 2031, we aim to reduce our carbon footprint by 42 percent, in line with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C target.

Making products recyclable for multiple uses

One of our biggest and most important goals is to advance the circular economy. That is why, going forward, we will design products so that they can remain in circulation rather than being disposed of.

Products with certifications and standards
Here you can find an overview of the certifications and standards we recognize. If the required supporting documentation is provided, products can be labelled accordingly on otto.de.

Less waste, more innovation
We use innovative and recycled materials to ensure that our packaging is recyclable and to reduce the need for virgin fibre.

Establishing minimum standards throughout the supply chain
Our human rights requirements throughout the supply chain are set out in the Business Partner Declaration on Sustainability and the Code of Conduct. These include, among other things, fair remuneration, reasonable working hours, the prohibition of child labour, the protection of young workers, occupational health and safety, non-discrimination and the prohibition of forced labour.

We set standards for the market 
We take responsibility for the products offered on otto.de and ensure compliance with both legal requirements and our own standards. Specialised tools help us continuously review the entire product range.
