Sonett - Help for Ukraine

 

For the time being all deliveries to Russia have been discontinued.

 

Ever since Russia has started its attack and war on Ukraine, Sonett, on a large scale, has put laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, hand soaps and disinfectants at the disposal of the people in Ukraine and those who have fled from Ukraine to Poland.

We also continue participating in the initiatives of denree, Byodo, and “Deine Ukraine Hilfe (your Ukraine aid)” of the German Federal Association Naturkost, Naturwaren (BNN) with products that we donate.
