dotch wins "Mehrweginnovationspreis" 2026

The dotch reuse system has been awarded the coveted "Mehrweginnovationspreis" by Deutsche Umwelthilfe and Stiftung Initiative Mehrweg. We are honored to be among the recipients of this award, which has recognized pioneering efforts and initiatives in the field of reuse since 2006.

Research project MIKKE launches in stores

What measures at the point of sale can really help encourage customers to choose reusable products? Together with our strong partners from the Technical University of Munich, the Ökopol Institute, the Mach Mehrweg Pool and SuperBioMarkt, we are moving from gut feeling to hard data. The first round of interventions in the one-year trial phase will begin in the shops this October. We are already very much looking forward to the results and to our joint on-site workshop in Münster!

Meet us at ECR In Motion

We will be speaking at the most important B2B congress for consumer goods! Just as we did at the Reuse and Logistics Leadership Days we will be offering a panel talk as ECR In Motion. Under the title"Mission: Reusable - Wie ein neuer Full Service Ansatz Mehrweg bei Glas skaliert", Nika will unite the perspective of manufaturers and retail on thursday, September 17th in Motion Studio 5. We look forward to seeing you there!

dotch wins Green Buddy Award

dotch was awarded the Green Buddy Award by the Tempelhof-Schöneberg district office and the BSR. This annual award recognizes companies, ideas, and initiatives that champion sustainable business practices in Berlin. We were honored in the "Waste avoidance - reduce, reuse, recycle" category. As a Berlin-based company, this is a proud moment for us.

dotch initiates manufacturer's alliance

Alongside 24 strong partners we demonstrate the existing demand for reusable packaging outside of beverages and dairy, highlighting the arguments in favour of this from an industry perspective.

dotch stands for ‘do the change,’ and that is exactly what we are doing: instead of just launching another product, we looked for the biggest lever to solve the packaging problem from the very beginning—and we found it in reusable systems.
