Every tree planted today can make an important contribution to climate protection in just a few years' time. For us at Olli Hess, preserving nature and using raw materials as sparingly as possible have been integral parts of our philosophy since the company was founded. But "just" using resources sparingly is not enough for us to symbolize our connection to nature. By planting new trees, we go one step further - and thus also contribute to the preservation of nature for future generations.
"A mighty tree starts from a seed."
What does Planet Tree do?
In 2020, the sad state of many German forests prompted a nature-loving family from Hesse to set up an initiative to replant forest areas: The "Planet Tree" project was born. Since then, the initiative has planted more than 90,000 trees in the forests of Bavaria, Hesse and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania throughout Germany.
We are also convinced by the idea of this project and have therefore decided to have 50 trees planted in the name of Olli Hess in collaboration with Planet Tree. Every single newly planted tree will make an important contribution to climate protection in just a few years' time.
Why are Olli Hess and Planet Tree a good match?
We chose Planet Tree as our partner because it is particularly important to us that there are real experts behind the project who not only know exactly what they are doing, but above all ensure that the trees have a long life. So that you too can see for yourself that our investment is making a real contribution, you can follow the development of the individual trees online here. The exact locations of the trees we have planted can also be viewed on the website. We look forward to a fruitful and sustainable collaboration with the Planet Tree initiative and the development of the trees we have planted.
What role do sustainability and environmental awareness play at Olli Hess?
Production that is in harmony with nature is demanding. But it was clear to us from the start: we want to set a good example. That is why we develop natural products that are not based on exploitation, but are produced in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way. Our family business is based in the heart of Germany and uses sustainable raw materials from the surrounding area for the manufacture of all products. Our mallets are made from beech wood that comes from regional cultivation. This means we avoid long transportation routes and can ensure controlled wood extraction. Almost all products, such as the
Gong mallet from Olli Hess are vegan, because we also avoid animal-based raw materials whenever possible. With this approach, we have been making an important contribution to environmental protection for many years. And we are always on the lookout for even more sustainable materials and manufacturing processes for future product developments.
