A Moleskine never ends
"Every Moleskine notebook is a book yet to be written."
Maria Sebregondi, Moleskine co-founder and president of Moleskine Foundation.
Moleskine notebooks are kept and treasured, not discarded after use. They are collected over time, our most precious stories imprinted on their ivory-colored pages.
That said, Moleskine’s circular economy strategy means unsellable items are recycled or repurposed. They are repurposed into creative tools donated to charitable organizations or recycled into new materials. In 2022, we donated about 25k products and recycled about 70 tons.
If you ever have to separate yourself from your beloved notebooks, be sure to remove the cover from the pages for recycling to continue this circular process.
Nurturing our Forests
Forests are a precious part of our planet and our lives. This is why Moleskine is fully committed to their responsible management by nurturing, restoring and protecting forests, their ecosystem and communities: Moleskine has been FSC™ certified since 2008 to support the mission of the Forest Stewardship Council™. Look for our FSC™ certified products.
About FSC™
For over 25 years, FSC™ (Forest Stewardship Council™) has promoted environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the world’s forests. It is the leading catalyst and defining force for improved forest management and market transformation, shifting the global forest trend toward sustainable use, conservation, restoration, and respect for all.
Acting on Climate Change
We are proud to announce that our emissions reduction targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with levels required to meet the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement.
We recognise the urgency of acting on climate change, and we believe that we all have a critical role to play in the transition to a low-carbon future by adopting more sustainable practices.
That’s why we have set science-based targets to reduce our own emissions as well as emissions throughout our value chain. One of the keystones of the plan is to achieve a 42% carbon footprint reduction by 2030 in Scope 1 and 2.
Joining the SBTi is the latest chapter in our quest to bring about positive change and to drive our collective future.
