Sustainable web design
Did you know that the internet produces more CO2 than the entire aviation industry?
Sustainable web design focuses on reducing the negative impact of web technology. It prioritizes people and the planet by lowering the CO2 emissions of your website and making it as user-friendly as possible.
Sustainable branding
Integrate environmental and social responsibility into your long-term strategy
Branding goes beyond your logo and visual identity; it defines how you operate. As consultants, we’ll work with you to explore your strategy in terms of Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG). This way, you contribute to a better world while distinguishing yourself in the market.
The KAN Woods
Combat deforestation and support local employment
Reforestation is crucial in the fight against global climate change. Nearly 15 billion trees are cut down each year for fuel, timber, or to make way for urban development and (industrial) agriculture. That’s why we invest a portion of our sustainability budget each year in planting new forests. Check out the KAN Woods on Tree-Nation's website.
Goals
Reduce our CO2 emissions
We are calculating scope 3 of our CO2 emissions
We are committed to achieving our ambitious environmental goals in the coming years. This commitment extends beyond our own operations. We have already calculated scope 1 and 2 of our CO2 emissions and will be examining scope 3 in the coming year. This includes evaluating the CO2 output of our suppliers to get a complete picture of our emissions and implement targeted actions. In doing so, we also aim to inspire our clients to make more sustainable choices.

Branding for the generations to come
At KAN Design, knowledge transfer extends beyond our office. We share our expertise with new talent by mentoring interns, serving as jury members, and educating future generations through the School of Branding and guest lectures. We also share our insights through Klub KAN, a platform that includes our podcast. In the series ‘The Future of Branding,’ we discuss the future of our industry with various guests. Our goal is to continuously contribute to the development of the creative community.
Internal training

We place special emphasis on training and development. In addition to work-related training that employees choose individually, we offer a wide range of general training throughout the year, from cybersecurity to workplace wellness. This helps us refine our skills and stay up-to-date with current topics.
