Our Values

CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY

We for the world …

With our effort and our products, we have a positive influence on the lives of people, animals, and the environment. We realized that this not only requires a great deal of commitment within the company but also way beyond. We take on this entrepreneurial responsibility through our values, the way we deal with each other, and a strong sustainable and social commitment.

Our Motto: PRO Planet, People & Paws – To represent our corporate responsibility.

We are climate partners

Naturefund is a non-profit nature conservation organization, whose goal is to preserve habitats for the diversity of animals and plants. It is supported by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development. Naturefund’s Blue Planet Certificate specifically protects natural ecosystems through reforestation.

As Naturefund’s climate partner, we have been supporting the organization since 2020 with a monthly tree donation, thereby neutralizing our CO2 emissions.

Our Blue Planet Certificate tree counter is updated monthly.

CLIMATE-NEUTRAL RECYCLING

We design and produce our packaging as eco-friendly as possible to ensure that most of it can be re-introduced into the cycle of valuable resource material. This way we prevent unnecessary waste and foster a responsible and sustainable handling of resources.

CORPORATE PHILOSOPHY

„Hier bin ich Mensch, hier will ich sein.“

A sustainable relationship based on trust and respectful interaction within the company, as well as, with suppliers and customers – both short- and long-term – is one of our main priorities.

Employer of the Year

FOCUS Business appointed KTN Dr. Neuberger GmbH in 2021 yet/once again as the top employer of medium-sized companies. The survey is not only based on evaluations made by employees on kununu, but also on the analyses of the business magazine FOCUS.

Our social commitment

We are happy to help and support social institutions through in kind donations and sponsoring – e.g. volunteer fire department, sports clubs, and kindergartens.

dkms life

We are Bronze Partner of DKMS LIFE; our support is a matter of personal commitment, which is why we not only donate our products, but also offer cosmetic seminars.

GERMANY IS BUZZING – WE BUZZ ALONG!

We are Bronze-Sponsors of wild bees. This year, for the first time, we support the wild bees- protection project of the initiative Deutschland summt as a sponsor. The initiative coordinates this and other projects throughout Germany that work to protect bees, provide diverse habitats, and educate the public.

In addition, we are currently building our own bee hotel, which in 2021 will welcome its first guests on the premises of the DR. NEUBERGER GROUP.

WDC - WE ARE SPONSORS!

In 2021 we continue to make our contribution to the important protection of marine mammals by sponsoring the humpback whale female “Salt”. In doing so, we support WDC’s research work to assess and secure the population size and health of whales.

WDC – the Whale and Dolphin Conservation – is the world’s leading non-profit organization dedicated exclusively to the conservation of whales and dolphins and their habitats.

HOW WE FEEL ABOUT ANIMAL TESTING

We generally reject animal testing! However, many consumers do not even know that animal testing is prohibited by law in Europe anyway! Unfortunately, many still continue to believe that cosmetic products or raw materials sold in Europe have been tested on animals; although this claim is false.

Moreover, products manufactured outside the EU may only be sold in the EU if they have not been tested on animals (Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 on cosmetic products (“EU-KosmetikVO”)).

This is why we do not use the Leaping Bunny label.

Because it is forbidden for us as a European cosmetics company to carry out animal testing or have it carried out. Since it is self-evident, we are not allowed to write it on our products. That is why we refrain from using the well-known bunny symbol or any other cruelty-free claims.
