The Challenge:
Their goal was to position themselves in the industry by focusing on sustainability, improving their impact to turn it into a competitive advantage.When they came to Dcycle, they were doing nothing related to emissions management.
The solution:
We began by measuring the environmental impact of their products and facilities to identify where the main impacts were. Thanks to the clarity of the results, they were able to develop a high-level environmental strategy to position themselves as a leading sustainable company.
They went from having no control over their sustainability to achieving a net zero balance in just two months.
They reduced the impact of their facilities and products by choosing lower-impact materials. Once the improvements were implemented, Dcycle helped them communicate clear and comparative environmental savings to showcase the value of their products over others in the market. After reducing their impact, they decided to offset their emissions to a negative level.
"We analyzed our products and offset their emissions twice. We are the first Carbon Negative fashion brand."
Juan Fernández-Estrada | Co-founder de Blue Banana
The strategy of focusing on sustainability, coupled with investment in communication, was highly successful, generating a boost in sales.
Dcycle provides its clients with the tools to take control of their sustainability, giving them visibility into their environmental impact.
