Sustainable wedding rings: What you should look out for when buying
Buying sustainable wedding rings is a decision that reflects both love and environmental awareness. To ensure that your wedding rings match your values, you should pay attention to certain aspects. Important certifications and seals for sustainable jewelry When buying sustainable wedding rings, you should look out for certain certifications and seals that guarantee the quality and sustainability of the jewelry. Some of the most important certifications are
- Recycling Gold: Ensures minimal transportation routes, no environmental impact and reducedCO2 emissions.
- ConflictFree: Ensures that the materials used do not originate from conflict regions - for example for diamonds through Kimberley certification.
- RJC (Responsible Jewellery Council): Certifies companies that apply ethical and sustainable practices in jewelry production.
Important questions for buying sustainable wedding rings
1. where does the precious metal used come from?
Was the gold or platinum obtained from recycled sources or does it come from certified fair trade, such as Fairtrade gold?
2. are the precious metals or diamonds conflict-free?
Can you be sure that no materials from conflict regions were used and that human rights are respected?
3. which certifications can the supplier provide?
Are there any certificates such as Fairtrade, RJC or other sustainability certificates that prove transparent, fair and environmentally friendly production?
4. how and where are the rings produced?
Does the production take place regionally - ideally in Germany - under fair working conditions or are they imported goods of unknown origin?
5. is attention paid to environmental friendliness during production?
What measures does the manufactory take to reduce energy, water and emissions?
6. are recycled materials used - and to what extent?
Is it completely recycled gold, or is it only a proportion? Is this communicated transparently?
