Our CSR and Zero Carbon Commitments
At Pixel Corner, all our kits are assembled by hand to order in our small Audonian workshop in the suburbs of Paris. We pay particular attention to the customer experience as well as to the quality and impact of our materials and prints. Each kit is packaged in a printed, resistant and recyclable box that meets FSC forest protection standards. Two types of packaging are offered depending on the stocks available from our suppliers (cylindrical or cubic box).
Our mosaic tiles are made from high-quality recycled glass from leftovers from other industries and colored with inorganic pigments of natural origin (calcified minerals). The result is mosaic tiles with intense colors and a smooth texture that is pleasant to the senses, both visually and to the touch. Unalterable over time, they can withstand temperature variations so that you can stick your works indoors and outdoors.
Our glue , resistant to water and weather, allows easy and precise use, while being odorless and non-toxic with zero formaldehyde. It rinses easily with warm water and soap and is recyclable.
Our prints, flyers and packaging are primarily made on recycled and recyclable papers. We are constantly working to improve our media in order to find the balance between quality and price in order to reduce our carbon footprint as much as possible on a daily basis. And for all this, we are financially committed by fully offsetting the carbon footprint of our deliveries through the financial support of innovative companies that eliminate carbon from the air.
Together we were able to:
- Remove more than a thousand cubic meters of carbon from the atmosphere.
- Enable carbon neutral shipping for all our orders from September 2023.
Here's how it works: For every order we receive, an algorithm calculates the estimated emissions related to transport based on parameters such as weight, distance etc. Based on these estimates, a portion of our revenue is directly donated to carbon removal companies that have been selected by the NGO's scientists. Carbon Direct . They then use this money to remove the corresponding amount of carbon created by our shipments. All additional funds are dedicated to developing new cutting-edge technologies in carbon removal.
Discover the projects:
Heirloom
Direct air capture technology developed by startup Heirloom enhances the carbon mineralization process. It accelerates the rate at which natural minerals capture CO₂ to promote faster, less energy-intensive air regeneration.
Remora
The Remora company manages to capture CO₂ from the exhaust pipes of semi-trailers while they are driving, compressing it for long-term storage.
Charm
Charm specializes in capturing CO₂ from plant waste, converting it into a stable, carbon-rich liquid, and storing it safely deep underground, out of reach of wildfires and soil erosion.
