Introduction
MateriaBona is a non-profit organisation, which distributes consumer goods (no food) to accredited social organisations.
MateriaBona receives donations of brand new goods from producers as well as trading companies, which are stored in a dedicated warehouse space. Subject to availability, those consumer goods will then be distributed to accredited social organisations, based on their orders in the MateriaBona webshop.
MateriaBona tries to match the surplus of consumer goods with accredited social organisations, which have a genuine need for such products and limited financial means. In addition, MateriaBona contributes to sustainability, since goods that cannot be sold are then often destroyed instead.
We supply those brand new goods, that would otherwise be destroyed, to people in need.
Our vision:
Utilising
instead of disposing
Where do the products come from?
MateriaBona receives brand new and top quality products directly from producers or trading companies. They are then stored and distributed to accredited social organisations.
Products are donated for a number of reasons:
- Overproduction
- Special offers
- Change of product range
- Insignificant errors that do not diminish the use
- New designs
What does MateriaBona do?
Producers and trading companies donate day-to-day consumer goods (no food) for distribution to accredited social organisations, which are delivered to the warehouse of MateriaBona.
The products arrive at the warehouse of MateriaBona’s logistics partner. They are then added to the webshop where they can be ordered.
Accredited social organisations can order the goods in quantities they require and MateriaBona will then ship them accordingly.
