Fair conditions

The foundation´s principles are, among others, payment of living wages, reasonable working hours, occupational safety, and preventing child labor.
Strong Partners
We are a bluesign® system partner since day one. The system focuses on resources, people and the environment. With its holistic approach it reduces the impact on people and on the environment, ensures responsible use of resources and guarantees the highest level of consumer safety.
sustainable materials
A perfect balance of attractive materials and sustainability is what we strive for at SALZEN. When it comes to the selection of our fabrics and leathers, we look very carefully and source only those materials which convince us completely, both visually, haptically and qualitatively. For our fabric variants we have been using PET-recycled materials from early on and we use 100% PFC-free coatings only.
Create tomorrow
With SALZEN we have made it our mission to be a faithful companion and partner in everyday life for all creators out there. We do so by designing minimalistic yet highly functional and sustainably produced backpacks, which not only provide maximum flexibility and organization in everyday life, but allow people to focus on what matters most. On the other hand, we are inspiring them with our limited statement collections, helpful books and a selection of items – smart and helpful in volatile times like these.
