NIKIN x VIVA CON AGUA: BE PART OF THE MOVEMENT
"Tree by Tree meets Drop by Drop": NIKIN and Viva con Agua are working together to create a positive impact - both for nature and for people - and are teaming up for a collaboration. While NIKIN focuses on ecological aspects such as tree planting and the production of sustainable fashion, Viva con Agua focuses on social aspects and provides people with access to clean drinking water and sanitary facilities. The Impact Bracelet symbolizes this collaboration and the desire to share our values. For every bracelet sold, a Tree is planted with One Tree Planted in Uganda and the One WASH Program of Viva con Agua is supported. Be a part of this positive impact and stand up for a greener world where everyone has access to water. #shareyourimpact
The Impact Bracelet
Pendant: #tide ocean material®
The #tide ocean material® is made from ocean plastic. Local volunteers collect plastic from the ocean in different places around the world and make reuse possible.
STRAP: Better on you than in the sea
Just like the pendant, the strap is made from recycled marine plastic, from OceanYarn® by Meister and made in Switzerland.
Packaging: Reuse material
We did not cut down a single Tree for the packaging of your Impact Bracelet, because the paper is made from industrial sugar cane waste.
Logos: #shareyourimpact
Show your values by wearing the Impact Bracelet. With the Tree from NIKIN and the Viva con Agua logo, you are standing up for sustainability and social commitment.
THE PROJECTS
NIKIN and Viva con Agua share the same values, which is why both support a project in Uganda through the sale of the Impact Bracelet. For every bracelet sold, 1 Tree is planted in a One Tree Planted reforestation project and 1 franc goes to the One WASH program supported by Viva con Agua.
NIKINUganda 2021 - Palorinya Refugee Settlement
From April 2022, NIKIN will plant 149,000 trees in western Uganda with One Tree Planted and local organisations. The forests are being created in the area of the Palorinya Refugee Settlement, a refugee camp with currently about 166,000 people. Why are trees needed there? The trees will provide shade, relieve pressure on existing trees and strengthen food security. The long-term goal is also to increase the use of firewood from controlled sources and to raise awareness among the local population.
Viva con Agua: One WASH Program in Uganda
With the One WASH Programme in Uganda, Viva con Agua provides access to clean drinking water, sanitation and hygiene for communities in Karamoja and West Nile. In detail, this means: the construction and commissioning of 6 solar-powered water supply systems at schools and in the communities, 18 new wells, the training of water user committees in the respective locations and communities and a total of 20,000 trees are being reforested to preserve natural watersheds.
CURRENT CONTRIBUTIONS
10 years of NIKIN. 10 years of Grown – Our roots: Planting trees
In October 2026, we will celebrate 10 years NIKIN. Ten years in which we have grown—as a brand, as a team, as a community. A lot has happened since 2016, but it all started with a simple idea: NIKIN plants NIKIN Tree for every product sold. And that first Tree now grown into a forest of over 2.7 million trees. As we kick off our anniversary year, we look back to our roots: planting trees.
From Fangorn to Pandora: Why forests often play a leading role in pop culture
Forests, whether mystical and misty or lively and colorful, are not only places of fascination for us in real life. They also appear repeatedly in pop culture and are not just green backdrops in many films, books, or games. They are meaningful, mysterious, or even play the leading role. Forests embody our connection to (Mother) Nature and represent wisdom, tranquility, and primal origins. We'll show you some of the best-known examples in which the forest itself becomes the main character and explain why it continues to have such a strong influence on our imagination to this day.
Our review of NIKIN in 2025
Another year is coming to an end. A year that we will not soon forget. In 2025, we at NIKIN made NIKIN come true, launched new innovations, planted over 300,000 trees, and discussed, raved about, and tasted mushrooms, forests, circularity, and coffee with you. And as we do every year, we would like to use these last few days to look back on our highlights and give you a little preview of what 2026 has in store. Spoiler alert: it's going to be big.
Our tree planting project in December: We return to Brazil and increase our impact
Do you remember the tree planting project in Brazil that is NIKIN special to NIKIN , which even Carla and Nicholas actively helped with on site last December? If not, we'll give you a refresher in this blog – because exactly one year later, we are back in Sete Lagoas, in the heart of the Brazilian Cerrado. The project is entering its next phase—and this time it will be even bigger, more diverse, and more effective.
