We see our purpose as twofold.
1. Making high-quality, sustainable products that add value to the lives of our customers.
2. Do our part by donating to charities that are making a REAL positive impact on our
planet.
We believe that if more companies and corporations led with these two principles, together we could solve humanity’s problems.
Humanity has cleared an estimated 3 TRILLION trees and cultivated around HALF of its fertile lands. Populations of wild animals have been decimated—we’ve lost 60% in the LAST 50 YEARS.
Frankly, there is very little wild left. BIODIVERSITY LOSS is one of the biggest threats we face as humanity. Without our wild places, our planet loses its natural ability to cleanse and heal from the damage we’ve caused.
• Climate Change Mitigation and Adaption
• Protecting Biodiversity
• Adopting a Sustainable Food Model
1) Phase out fossil fuels and replace them with true renewable energy sources. This will slow the warming of the planet, reduce the acidification of the oceans, and give our children cleaner air to breathe.
2) Upgrade to efficient food production. We can do this by eating less meat as a species. Meat requires far more land to produce than do crops. By doing this we can increase our grasslands, reduce deforestation and feed more people with less impact.
3) Hold onto the wild populations that still remain. We have to fight tooth and nail to stop the depopulation of our wilds. Let’s draw a line in the sand right here.
4) Expand our wild places! Plant more trees. Learn to live and thrive with nature instead of against it.
5) Support causes and companies who are trying to make an impact (that’s us!). Money makes the world go ‘round. If we put our money where our mouth is, mobilize our dollars and put them to work saving the planet, we can change the world for the better.
Human beings are amazingly resilient. So is our planet—it just needs a little help. This is the foundational principle upon which we’ve built NEOLETEX—our small way of making a difference and setting the right example.
Of course, we want to be a successful business, BUT, our measure of success is slightly different than most other brands. At Neoletex, we measure our success on our ability to help preserve the delicate balance between human prosperity, and our planet’s ecological survival. That means, before we take any profits, we donate 10% of our website sales to environmental projects, and charitable organizations.
These are causes that we have CAREFULLY selected, based on our beliefs and our burning desire to make a difference. We want to ensure our children—and their children—live harmoniously with our planet.
We embrace progress. But we also believe modernity can’t come at the cost of the environment. True progress must be sustainable—if it’s not, is it really progress?
In today’s fast and furious world, we’re able to order cheap “stuff” with the click of a button. While the convenience of these developments are astounding, we’re using more non-biodegradable, less-sustainable materials at a faster rate than ever before in human history.
At NEOLETEX, we embrace the kind of progress that ushers in positive and meaningful changes. Our products are efficient, effective, and environmentally sustainable.
All of our products are packaged in BIODEGRADABLE CARDBOARD. We use ONLY 100% NATURAL BAMBOO, to craft our innovative organizing products.
Here's why we think that's important:
WE ARE LOSING OUR FORESTS
Between 1990 and 2016, the world lost 502,000square miles (1.3 million square kilometers) of forest, according to the World Bank—an area larger than South Africa.
This will only accelerate unless we make a change.
Let’s break it down for a second: a mature tree, used for lumber and other building materials can take many DECADES to reach maturity. Then, once ready, loggers will come in and clear cut a massive swath of forest in one fell swoop. This obviously destroys the ecosystem where they once stood.
Here’s why we KNOW bamboo is our future, and why ALL OF OUR PRODUCTS are made from high-quality, eco-friendly bamboo:
BAMBOO CAN REACH MATURITY IN AS FEW AS 90 DAYS
There is one particular species of bamboo that can grow 1.5 inches per hour.
BAMBOO IS “GREEN STEEL”
The strength of bamboo is remarkable. Entire houses are now being constructed of bamboo. It has a greater tensile strength than steel, and is 3 TIMES STRONGER than timber.
BAMBOO IS NATURALLY HYGIENIC
There is a compound in bamboo fiber called “bamboo kun” that naturally repels bacteria. Let’s face it: these days, we could all use a little peace of mind in that department.
BAMBOO IS AMAZING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Bamboo has the capacity to absorb TWICE the amount of carbon dioxide of trees. It also produces a MASSIVE amount of oxygen—about 30% more than trees and other plants. It grows back fast, and has solid roots that prevent soil erosion. Bamboo can be used to quickly restore a deforested area to its former natural glory.
Hey, we’re not just here to help save our beautiful planet and all of it’s incredible people. We also make and sell innovative bamboo organizational products that are durable, versatile, and stylish. We take pride in our ability to deliver outstanding products, while NEVER compromising on our environmentally-friendly foundation.
All of our products come FULLY ASSEMBLED, so you can spend more time doing what you love!(hopefully saving the planet *wink), and are in BIODEGRADABLE CARDBOARD PACKAGING, reducing waste and our footprint.
In the era of amazon prime, we’ve got clutter in our homes. There’s no shame in that. We’ve carefully and meticulously designed our home and office organization products to maximize your space. Let’s clear some that clutter out of way.
We ensure every single product we ship out the door is of the highest possible quality, with the least impact on our environment. Our products are partially-handcrafted. We rely on ingenuity, not our competitors ,to create eye-catching, and well designed organizational products. We believe in innovation, that’s why all our designs are completely original.
We love the peace of mind our products give our customers.
We love our environment. We also love helping our customers. That’s why we ONLY sell easy to use products that come pre-assembled.
DURABILITY IS ESSENTIAL
A product cannot be sustainable unless it’s durable and long-lasting. Our products are built tough, and built to last for years!
NONE OF US ARE PERFECT
When it comes to environmentalism, nobody is perfect. However, we can all begin by doing the little things that over time, create a lasting change. Together, us imperfect humans can balance the scales and return the world to harmonious nature.
The simple actions we take today determine the world we live in tomorrow. Make your actions count. Make an impact every time you buy something for the home or office.
We will NEVER compromise on our environmental beliefs. We will NEVER put profits over progress. We will ALWAYS look ahead, to a brighter future.
