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.

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.
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.
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.
