We've taken stock of the past 365 days and collected a list of what important events we have participated in and what great collaborations we have done over the past year!
Ecooperation tRENDrakó with Marci
We couldn't start the list with anyone other than Marci Bartus, also known as Marci tRENDrakó.
We love working with Marci not only because we recognize her work as a credible content producer, but also because her innovative ideas and values are a perfect fit for us!
Cooperation with him started in August and in addition to providing a range of entertainment and educational videos with CYCLE cleaning products, we had the honor last fall to be the tRENDrako and friends the bookCYCLE was included in the book of the CYCLE webshop! The book is written by Marci, who shares her own experiences and effective solutions to the challenges and solutions of environmentally sustainable pet ownership. If you are interested in the book, click here.
But we are also grateful to Marc for representing CYCLE cleaning products not only online but also offline! In his summer eco-friendly workshops, CYCLECYCLE.
"Prevented ocean plastic" against ocean plastic pollution
The CYCLE Plastic Free July campaign focused on "prevented ocean plastic".
As explained in a previous article detailing our initiative prevented ocean plastic, or POP, is a high-quality, fully certified plastic that is recycled from discarded plastic debris from coastal areas at risk of ocean plastic pollution.
We chose this material for our summer limited edition 10X concentrates.
This is what our summer limited edition 10X concentrate looked like
In the future, we would like to organise similar campaigns to raise awareness of environmentally friendly options for consumers!
IV. Bodrogi Pet Cup support
Keeping waters clean did not stop with the use of POPs, as in the autumn the Pet Cup in the fall.
48 of the participants in last year's Bordrog PET Cup Cycle Starter Kit-to as a reward for their successful work with the petcockers! The donation was distributed so that all placed boats and members of the Bodrog Hero team would receive it.
CYCLE was also present at the VI Bodrog PET Cup
Very impressiveimpressed by the enthusiastic work of the pirates, and we look forward to a similar collaboration this year!
Green Brands award
One of the big milestones of the year 2023 was the awarding of the Green Brands label to our cleaning products in August!
Green Brands is a trademark for ecological sustainability and refers to brands that make a significant contribution to the protection of nature and the environment.
Green Brand Certificate
Thanks to a broad set of criteria, Green Brands have a proven track record of sustainable production and operations, with a strong commitment to sustainability and the preservation of natural balances, and a strong sense of their own responsibility to conserve natural resources.
We are proud that CYCLE cleaning products have also been awarded the Green Brands label.
Planet Expo sustainability exhibition
Sn September we participated in the Planet Expo sustainability exhibition!
The Hungexpo event is an exhibition on sustainability and green innovation, where representatives of companies working towards sustainability goals and presenting concrete solutions were given the opportunity to present themselves to business partners and the public, including us!
During the exhibition, we were able to listen to presentations and round table discussions by leading experts in the field of sustainability.
János Áder was also present at the event and said:

We really enjoyed these few days, so many interesting people and we were pleased to see that more and more sustainableinterest in sustainability! We were also grateful for all the questions about CYCLE , which we were very happy to answer for all those interested.
UNICEF Climate Heroes event
UNICEF held its Climate Heroes event on 7 October. The audience was primary school children, who were able to listen to presentations on various sustainability topics and participate in workshops.
The CYCLE team had the honour to share our experiences and insights on the businesses that are actively working to combat climate change in a roundtable discussion.
We had a super informal discussion with Emese Pancsa(Compocity), Kristóf Hegedűs(Beeco), Veronika Pistyur(Bridge Budapest).
We had a great time at the Climate Conference
Thank you again for the invitation!
Painting green and dark patterns conference
In September, the Greening and Dark Patterns conference informed us about the practical implementation of the relevant legislation, as well as super international developments and methods.
At the conference, experts in the field shared their experience and knowledge with us
This has provided us with guidance in understanding recent legislative changes and their implementation. But the presentations also taught us about practices based on deceiving manipulative consumers and how to recognise and prevent green-lighting.
CYCLE, we believe in transparent and credible communication, and environmental protection is not just a marketing slogan. That is why we are constantly training ourselves on this topic!
Questionnaire on Hungarian shopping habits
Last year we invested a lot of energy in gathering feedback on customer habits.
One of these projects was a large-scale questionnaire, which , thanks to more than 1,000 respondents, gave us a broader picture of the domestic population's environmentally friendly use of cleaning products, their consumption habits and their awareness of the ingredients.
A read more about the questionnaire here.
Renewed exterior
Before we gave ourselves over to the holidays, we gave CYCLE cleaning products a brand new look in November!
Thanks to this, you can now find our effective cleaning products in a more aesthetically pleasing, streamlined package.
New look, old content
But don't worry, it's just our looks that have changed! Our eco-friendly, non-toxic, natural ingredients and effective formulas are still the same.
Growth of the CYCLE Community
Last but not least, we would like to share some thoughts on the growth of the CYCLE community!
Followers of our social media pages for the end of the year On Facebook 11 000 people, on Instagram and nearly 5,000 on Instagram, and we launched LinkedIn page.
In addition, we have not only grown with satisfied customer feedback, but also with collaborations who recommend CYCLE products to their followers!
