On the occasion of the anniversary, our founding team consisting of Jonas, Michel, Jeremy and Gian-Mattia looks back on a time full of visions, progress, and enriching encounters.

At FAIRTIQ we are 100% committed to reducing our impact on the environment. From the moment we set up the company, we have adopted a number of practices to make our activities more sustainable. Whenever they can, our team use public transport for their business trips. In addition, our staff receive a half-fare travel card and a 50% discount on all of their business and personal travel (FAIRTIQ Benefits) in Switzerland. When organising international business trips, we scrutinise the different options available, carefully comparing the price, duration and environmental impact of the journey for each mode of transport. In the office, we keep our paper consumption to a minimum and use only FSC certified paper. We know that every action, no matter how small, counts.
This is why we bring our own reusable containers when buying takeaway food. We are the proud bearers of the myclimate 'Carbon-neutral company' label. We were awarded this certificate in recognition of our efforts to offset our carbon emissions through our involvement in the foundation's high-quality climate projects. We realise that CO2 compensation does not make everything right and we need to do whatever we can to stop producing emissions in the first place. But we feel it is important that we lead by example while continuing to seek out new ways to shrink our carbon footprint and operate more sustainably.
