The protection of our natural resources is one of the most pressing issues of our time. We constantly work to improve production processes, products, packaging and logistics. A high proportion of the natural resources that we use are from sustainable sources: cork, natural latex, jute, leather and wool felt are among our most important materials.

BIRKENSTOCK, a company with a long tradition, has set ethical and social rules for us and our business partners and developed a Code of Conduct.

Complaints in accordance with the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG) due to actual or imminent human rights or environmental incidents in connection with our own activities or suppliers of BIRKENSTOCK can be reported via the protected SpeakUP Line provided by the BIRKENSTOCK Group B.V. & Co. KG.

Further information on how we deal with complaints related to the LkSG can be found in our Rules of Procedures for Complaints.

German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act guides us to monitor and report on human rights and environmental risks in the supply chain.
 
Hereby, we present our disclosures:
