As a we with our hundsfutter When we started the project, it was immediately clear that we wanted our products to be of high quality sustained be packaged. Sustainability instead of quick profit is one Attitude question. For this we need partners who have the same values as we do. It didn't take long to get to that Weck company to poke. It was actually a “deja vu” for me. Because I can still very well remember the countless glasses with plums, cherries, morello cherries, pears, ... on the wooden shelves in my grandmother's cellar on Drehholzstrasse in Bonn-Mehlem.
The wake up glasses there were impressive. They were ancient and some of the boiled fruit had already lost their color. But when opened, the fruits were still wonderfully preserved. As delicious as freshly cooked.
In the glasses of Weck time stands still. And that was also my impression when I asked the Weck company about the possibilities of Weck glasses for our hundsfutter have informed. The friendly, very competent employee on the phone became enthusiastic himself when he talked about the Weck jars and about vacuum preservation in general. The explanations go back to the times of Napoleon, who was so successful in the war because he supplied his soldiers with canned food. The good food on the front made the French army particularly powerful.
It's just nice that someone is doing their thing with passion. You had the feeling of immersing yourself in a time that actually no longer exists. Today it's all about quick profit. No matter how. To get a lot and to be able to do or have to do little for it has become the ideal. But Weck is still about the thing. So doing something well, giving something back to the world. Sustainability is a question of attitude for Weck.
You can also prevail over the competition fairly and sustainably.
You immediately noticed that we have the same values to have. At Weck, this is particularly noteworthy because it fair and sustainable works and even on an international level. It has prevailed against the entire competition, simply with its high quality and continuous good work. And all this without any lazy tricks, such as having glasses made in Asia or processing inferior glass to save costs. Weck may not have a glass type for a few months. But that's much better that way. Because then you know that not that impossible has been done at the expense of the environment and people just to sell more.
After the conversation it was clear that we would fit together perfectly. We love brands that are really good. Make good products and have good values and work with respect and decency. Because that's what we strive for. Doing things very well, being fair and doing business sustainably. We want to achieve social returns with appropriate, appropriate growth. Maximizing profits based on exploitation is definitely not our business model. For us, sustainability is a question of attitude. And one of the most important goals that we pursue.
That is why we like the world of the Weck company with their products so much. It's like when time is stopped. At Weck, one thinks about the good that already exists. Without losing touch with today's times. The innovations and insights that represent real progress are very welcome. But “new” to simply “new” doesn't exist here. You can rely on it.
Our society has solutions to many of humanity's problems, but we don't use them. The decision makers lack imagination and are controlled by your greed.
One of the worst mistakes our society makes is not using the very good ideas, techniques and solutions to problems that we already have. Mostly this is because the decision-makers cannot make enough profit with it. So we are constantly wasting our strength and resources "doing new things". The damage we do as a result could become our undoing. Companies like Weck have the necessary imagination and consistency to survive changes and changes. Perhaps as a society one should learn something from this.
