Sustainability at MateriaBona

Every year, millions of dollars’ worth of brand-new consumer goods remain unused in Switzerland, ultimately ending up in landfill sites. MateriaBona offers a better solution.


Our Solution:
Supply Instead of Dispose

  • Companies donate their surplus products to us free of charge.
  • We then inspect, store and distribute these items to social organisations, charging a small fee for this service.

This ensures that valuable resources continue to circulate and are used where they are needed the most.

Social Impact of the Circular Economy

  • Over 200 social institutions in Switzerland rely on MateriaBona for everyday items.
  • Companies such as Rausch, Patagonia, Trisa, Durgol, MAM Baby, Simplex, and Medinova are already part of the scheme.

This reduces waste and has a positive ecological and social impact.
