Climate-neutral shipping

Offset and reduce emissions together!

Optimised transport routes reduce emissions, save resources and protect the environment.

POLOLO stands for the highest social and ecological principles – in the interest of all, we strive for the highest level of environmental, nature and resource protection.

Logistics company in Germany – with GOTS standard and own solar power generation

Our logistics company WKS is based in Germany and is certified according to the GOTS standard – fairness and environmental protection are also very important to them: WKS generates its own electricity with modern photovoltaic technology.

Climate-neutral shipping through participation in the DHL “GoGreen” programme

For climate-neutral shipping, we participate in the DHL “GoGreen” programme: This enabled us to offset an equivalent of 7.23 tonnes of CO2 in 2020 through the use of climate-neutral products and services – thereby supporting sustainable projects in Africa, South America and Asia, e.g. for energy generation from biomass, landfill gas and wind as well as hydropower and water supply.
The calculation of the offset emissions is checked and verified by the independent company Société Générale de Surveillance (SGS). The shipping costs can therefore offset the transport and the resulting CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, we should avoid transport as much as possible.

Targeted model and size selection saves unnecessary returns, costs and emissions

It is not easy to buy children’s shoes online – we know that – and we understand that sometimes it is not so easy to find the right size or model (models come in different sizes and the length of the inner shoe does not tell everything about the fit either). In order to avoid unnecessary effort and transport, we would like to offer you comprehensive advice on the choice of model and size:

• Tips and size information can be found on our webpage “Size Charts”.
• We make every effort to provide informative descriptions of our shoes in the online shop. If you need additional advice, you can get it by phone, e-mail or – by appointment – via “Zoom” video chat.
• Those who prefer a local touch are cordially invited to visit our ShowRoom with shop in Berlin-Zehlendorf – subject to current opening hours and official requirements, we will be happy to present our collection there in person and advise on the selection.
