With the help of the “Onleihe” feature in your e-reader, you can borrow e-books from your library. More and more libraries have come to offer that service. This does not only save your time, but also saves you from having to go to the library, thus reducing your CO₂ footprint.

We are always working to make the processes in our online store sustainable. For example, we have product filters on our e-reader pages or the option to compare different devices. This helps you find the right e-reader. Reducing the number of returns is a key component in reducing CO₂ consumption.

Here you can find the e-reader that suits you.

Repairing your e-reader is usually worthwhile and sustainable, too. If you use your device for a long time, you do something good for the environment. Take advantage of our repair service instead of throwing away your device if it has small defects. And the best thing is: Our service center is located in Europe and therefore does not require long shipment.

This way to the service center.

To prepare our company even better for the future, we are constantly scrutinizing our internal processes and striving to make them more sustainable on an ongoing basis. This includes reducing packaging waste or developing more sustainable equipment and packaging or reducing printed advertising material.
