About The Sustainable People

As a student, our founder Arne noticed almost 100 dog waste bags lying on the side of the road in 2013 while jogging around Hamburg’s green spaces and canals over a distance of approx. 5 km. Shocked by the sheer number of plastic bags, the desire arose to solve this problem and reduce the negative impact of plastic on the environment. In the same year, Arne developed biodegradable dog waste bags for cities and municipalities, together with a Swiss company. This makes him one of the world’s pioneers in this area. In 2016, he founded The Sustainable People. The Sustainable People is a manufacturer of eco-friendly designed innovative everyday products in the areas of pet supplies, garbage disposal and packaging. Together with our customers, we help to reduce the environmental impact of plastic. Our core range includes dog waste bags and garbage bags made of different materials and in different sizes. We also offer suitable accessories. In order to keep the environmental impact of plastic as low as possible, we pursue the following approach: the materials used are made of biodegradable, bio-based or recycled / recyclable plastic in order to save resources and protect the environment.Read their story
