NIKIN Clean Up Day
September 18, 2021
What is Clean Up Day?
Clean Up Day is a global day of action in which dedicated volunteers clear the environment of garbage. It takes place on the third Saturday in September.
The aim of NIKIN Clean Up Day is to raise awareness and sensitize the Swiss population to the problem of waste and thus achieve sustainable change.
The aim is to motivate people to reduce their daily waste and to work towards a cleaner and more sustainable environment.
To increase the incentive and counteract the CO2 emissions of waste incineration, NIKIN plants one Tree for every kilogram of waste.

Living Among Bears: Between Proximity and Respect with David Bittner
Our TreeHouse Talks bring together people who inspire us through their mindful approach to nature. Bear researcher David Bittner has spent every summer in Alaska for over two decades, far from cell service, routines, and everyday life. His stories offer insights into a world where getting close to wild animals is only possible if you’re willing to listen, accept boundaries, and take nature seriously. He shows us how respect, calm, and genuine understanding shape how we experience nature—and what we can take away from that for our daily lives.
From Orchards to Global Reforestation: A Conversation with Hank Lynch, CEO of One Tree Planted
Forests have a special power. They calm us, inspire us, and remind us of how closely connected we are to nature. That’s exactly why NIKIN has been working NIKIN years with partners like One Tree Planted to restore forests around the world. But behind every organization are people with stories—and one of them belongs to Harry “Hank” Lynch, the CEO of One Tree Planted.
Back to the Roots: How Diego Walder is Rethinking Spatz
Spatz is more than just a brand. For many, it’s a feeling—shaped by memories of camp, long summer evenings outdoors, and tents that have been a part of generations of people’s lives. This connection NIKIN deeply rooted at NIKIN as well. As the founders of NIKIN , Nicholas and Robin NIKIN also shaped by these very experiences: at scout camp, around the campfire, and in nature. This makes our collaboration with a brand that has helped shape Swiss outdoor culture for decades all the more special to us. Today, Spatz stands at a new turning point in its history. And right in the middle of it all: Diego Walder.
