WHAT'S THE COMMUNITY?

The Green Product and Green Concept Awards form a benchmark community: a platform where finalists and winners set the standards for sustainable innovation. This community stands out because:

  • Leadership: The Green Product Award positions companies and start-ups as leaders in sustainable markets.
  • Legacy: The Green Concept Award supports students and young talents with visionary ideas.
  • Authority: the Green Future Club, a non-profit NGO, provides the independent jury and certification seal. Its evaluation gives participants trusted recognition and ensures alignment with future EU sustainability standards.

 

Together, these elements create a unique ecosystem that combines recognition, expertise, and long-term visibility.

ABOUT THE GREEN PRODUCT AWARDS

Founded in 2013, the Green Product Award has become a leading international platform for sustainable design and innovation. Organized by white lobster, a Berlin-based agency for sustainability-focused innovation formats, and backed by the Green Future Club, the awards ensure that recognition is more than symbolic – it is a benchmark of quality and compliance with future sustainability standards.
