NIKIN x VIVA CON AGUA: BE PART OF THE MOVEMENT
"Tree by Tree meets Drop by Drop": NIKIN and Viva con Agua are working together to make a positive impact - both for nature and for people - and are teaming up for a collaboration. While NIKIN focuses on ecological aspects such as tree planting and the production of sustainable fashion, Viva con Agua focuses on social aspects and provides people with access to clean drinking water and sanitary facilities. The Impact Bracelet symbolizes this collaboration and the desire to share our values. For every bracelet sold, a tree is planted with One Tree Planted in Uganda and the One WASH Program of Viva con Agua is supported. Be a part of this positive impact and stand up for a greener world where everyone has access to water. #shareyourimpact
The Impact Bracelet
Pendant: #tide ocean material®
The #tide ocean material® is made from ocean plastic. Local volunteers collect plastic from the ocean in different places around the world and make reuse possible.
STRAP: Better on you than in the sea
Just like the pendant, the strap is made from recycled marine plastic, from OceanYarn® by Meister and made in Switzerland.
Packaging: Reuse material
We didn't cut down a single tree to make the packaging for your Impact Bracelet, because the paper is made from industrial sugar cane waste.
Logos: #shareyourimpact
Show your values by wearing the Impact Bracelet. With the NIKIN tree and the Viva con Agua logo, you stand for sustainability and social commitment.
THE PROJECTS
NIKIN and Viva con Agua share the same values, which is why both support a project in Uganda through the sale of the Impact Bracelet. For every bracelet sold, 1 tree is planted in a One Tree Planted reforestation project and 1 Swiss franc goes to the One WASH Programme supported by Viva con Agua.
NIKIN: Uganda 2021 - Palorinya Refugee Settlement
From April 2022, NIKIN will plant 149,000 trees in western Uganda with One Tree Planted and local organisations. The forests will be created in the area of the Palorinya Refugee Settlement, a refugee camp with currently about 166,000 people. Why are trees needed there? The trees will provide shade, relieve pressure on existing trees and strengthen food security. The long-term goal is also to increase the use of firewood from controlled sources and to raise awareness among the local population.
Viva con Agua: One WASH Program in Uganda
With the One WASH Programme in Uganda, Viva con Agua provides access to clean drinking water, sanitation and hygiene for communities in Karamoja and West Nile. In detail, this means: the construction and commissioning of 6 solar-powered water supply systems at schools and in the communities, 18 new wells, the training of water user committees in the respective locations and communities, and a total of 20,000 trees are being reforested to preserve natural watersheds.

Slow fashion: more than just a fashion trend
Have you ever heard of slow fashion? You probably have. But what exactly is behind the term is not always clear. We'll show you what slow fashion really means, how it stands for fair, conscious and environmentally friendly fashion in contrast to fast fashion, and how you too can recognize sustainable brands and make more conscious purchasing decisions with a few simple tips.
The circular economy can only work together - how NIKIN and Pandinavia are rethinking sustainable products
In a world where mass production and disposable items still dominate, new ways of thinking are needed - and courageous partnerships. Particularly in the merchandising sector, cheap, unsustainable products are often used that end up in the bin after a short time or are never used at all. But there is another way. NIKIN and Pandinavia are working together to show how the circular economy works in practice - with circular products, strong values and a clear goal: to make the future more sustainable.
More than espresso or macchiato: We also use coffee in clothes
Are you more of a "Mi amore, espresso macchiato, por favore" or "That's that me espresso" type? Whether it's in your ear or on your tongue – for many, the day really starts with the first cup of coffee, whether homebrewed or to-go. Coffee accompanies us, always and everywhere. And that's precisely why we at NIKIN asked ourselves: Why not wear it in our clothes too? Because coffee is more than just a luxury item.
