Smarter sourcing
Our stylish faux leather covers are not just cute (though we say so ourselves), but non-toxic and fully degradable usually after 10 years. That is when the material is mixed in compost in controlled temperatures and environments. And the paper inside is just as green — your Dingbats* is made from trees that are replaced or allowed to regenerate naturally.

Happy animals
We love animals, which is why they play a starring role on our covers ;) Plus, we’re the first and only notebook brand to be EU V-Label certified, which means we don’t use animal-based adhesives and we’re absolutely, truly, 100% vegan.

Safe travels
Our notebooks go all over the world, so we need to wrap them in a way that protects them on their journey. To do this, we’re as environmentally conscious possible — using a material that consists of more than 40% polyethylene produced from sugarcane ethanol and is 100% recyclable in most countries.
More recycling tips
The Dingbats* Ātopen Dual Tip & Fineliners are made using recyclable and reusable materials. The magic #5 means that if you ever need to throw one away, you can easily take it to your local recycling facility to turn them into a whole range of cool new things: from battery cables, brooms and brushes to pallets, trays and bicycle racks. The packaging is also made of 100% post consumer recycled cardboard
