We become greener – since April 2019 we focus on an issue that can help to make our company a little greener every month.
You will also find our current articles about W.R. Lang goes green! in our News section and on our start page.
On the following pages you will read what we have been able to implement since then:
With our spring and Easter greetings, our customers received a small pack of seeding mixture for a colorful flower meadow.
Our new banderole for bedding blanks. It is made of brown Kraft paper, an FSC certified recycling paper. These banderoles replace the plastic bags the bedding blanks used to be packaged in.
Our customers have seeded heartily – the first „gardening“ successes with our flower meadow seeding mixture that bees really enjoy!
In this article we introduce you to our handling of print products.
This time we present you our fully automatic coffee machine for our staff and guests.
Our company that ships hundreds of parcels every day takes its responsibility for the environment very seriously. We have consciously decided to use the a little more expensive shipping with GLS KlimaProtect.
From now on, our shipping documents are coming to our customers in a shiny green dress made of 100% paper.
Starting on 30. June 2019, we have changed our means of invoice dispatch. We now send our invoices electronically by email to all customers who have consented to this means of dispatch. In the following we point out what advantages we see in this process.
Our packaging recycling aims to make efficient use of the resource paper, so we reuse intact packaging from deliveries and returns. We consume less packaging material by means of optimal package sizes.
Paper instead of plastic. We present our paper bags and cartons for insole blanks. We now offer these in a much more environmentally friendly way.
Sustainable corporate culture – We are also becoming “greener” with initiatives in the areas of team building, health management and fruit delivery.
Whether office work or order picking – every professional activity has special requirements for humane work design.
Since August 2020, there is a water dispenser from the company Waterlogic® in our kitchen.
By having a water dispenser, we avoid the environmental impact of bottles.
Read in this report why our office dog Arya is so good for sustainable corporate culture and what this has to do with “W.R. Lang goes green”.

We are proud to have made a major contribution to the article “Sustainable products in the OST company” by implementing our “W.R. Lang goes green” campaign. Because it is not our company that benefits, but our environment!
Sustainable giveaways – we’re going greener there, too!
With our more sustainable giveaways, we want to value our customers and business partners and leave them with a positive memory.
But of course we also want to act responsibly and environmentally conscious.
We love bees! W.R. LANG is committed to the environment and nature conservation. We take over the sponsorship of a bee colony for one year.
Living more sustainably. These apps, available in Germany, can help us be more environmentally and climate friendly with our resources.
Buzzer-time at the W.R. Lang Bees!
Buzzer-time at W.R. Lang – Of unromantic swarms and romantic heroes The development of the bee colony reaches its peak in late spring and summer. Meadows and fields resemble a sea of blossoms, everything grows, blossoms, hums and buzzes. Who doesn’t get romantic thoughts?
Of little bees, little flowers and love 🙂
This article is not only about bees, flowers and love, but above all about how we can give our “pollinators” a better life.
We have changed the packaging for the production of our insole blanks.
We are also becoming more sustainable when it comes to Christmas presents. Instead of customer and partner gifts, W.R. Lang is participating in two environmentally friendly projects.
We are looking forward to the second year with our bees and give you a shoulder look at the required annual health check.
Everything is turning green – Spring does not start at the same time everywhere in Germany. But how fast is spring actually on its way? Can you measure it?
On September 10, our customer forum will take place again for the first time in two years.
What does our customer forum have to do with “going green” and sustainability?
The environmental impact of human activity continues to increase. Be it through the emission of greenhouse gases or the burning of fossil raw materials. Not to mention the mountains of garbage that we keep growing through our consumption.
