Our Sustainability Mission

We work hard to continuously make all our activities more sustainable. Sustainability is one of the core values of DeHuisjes. It is deeply rooted in our DNA. In the way we design, produce, and package our products, we always strive for a minimal ecological footprint.

We design all our new lifestyle accessories with quality and sustainability as our top priorities. Our gift accessories are not only unique and hand-illustrated, but also highly sustainable. We constantly weigh price against quality — and sustainability often makes the final call.

All products are assembled and finished in our own workshop in Maastricht. Our laser machine often works overtime — thankfully, powered entirely by green energy! Wherever possible, we use sustainable and circular materials such as:

  • cork
  • recycled tiles
  • recycled paper
  • bamboo

On Our Way to a Fully Sustainable Delivery Process

For us, sustainability means more than just offering sustainable products — it also means minimizing our impact on the environment. That’s how we truly contribute to a more sustainable society. We continue to translate our sustainability mission into concrete goals. One long-held ambition has been to make our delivery process more sustainable.

From the very beginning, our handmade illustrations were available with and without a frame. Our framed illustrations used to be shipped in large, fragile, and heavy packages. Due to our quality standards, unframed illustrations (A2 size and up) are sent in sturdy cardboard tubes.

These tubes minimize the risk of damage and can easily be reused — for wrapping paper, old posters, or drawings. However, the heavy frames and the unused space in the middle of the tube always bothered us. Now, we’ve found the solution: the DeHuisjes Magnetic Frame 2.0.

Sustainable Shipping of the Magnetic Frame 2.0

Today, we say goodbye to our old way of framing. The heavy traditional frames made of glass or plexiglass no longer meet our quality and sustainability standards. That’s why we now only offer the easy-to-use magnetic frame!

Our new frames not only have a modern and trendy look — they also offer convenience. Framing artwork can be a hassle, and changing it even more so. With our new frames, your print hangs on the wall within seconds — without damaging the poster. You can now swap your artwork as easily as you change shoes!

Moreover, this new framing method requires less than half the amount of wood. The high-quality prints from DeHuisjes are firmly held in place by small, invisible magnets. The frames are available in all desired sizes, in both light and dark versions, suitable for both horizontal and vertical illustrations.

Trendy, Personal, and Sustainable Gift Package

The end result is a handmade illustration with a modern frame — a gift package that is not only trendy, but also personal, lightweight, and sustainable.

Our black-and-white posters are made from 100% recycled agricultural waste. The white fiber paper is naturally bleached. Both paper types carry the FSC certification. With a small screw and a stylish cord, you can easily hang the illustration on your wall. The gift is ready to give — to yourself or someone else.

During the first month, we offer the A4 poster together with the frame at a Special Early Bird Price of €29,-
