Get to know us
We think big and holistically - which is precisely why we start with concrete and pragmatic steps. We are driven by the desire to make sustainability measurable, implementable and ultimately meaningful: from Hamburg for a future in which we all enjoy living and working.
Sustainability is not a feeling, but a core strategic issue for companies, which we prefer to discuss on the basis of data. This is why we support and assist organizations in collecting and collating data, classifying and understanding key figures and facts relating to sustainability. Not only because the reporting obligations of more and more companies require it, but above all because only what is measurable is also visible and can therefore be changed for the better.
A sustainability strategy can only be fully effective if it is seamlessly integrated into a company's overall strategy and is supported and implemented with commitment. We advise organizations on how they can set up viable sustainability management systems that track, reflect on and continually adjust specific measures and steps with a view to the goal. We enable the people who work with these systems to manage their issues as effectively as possible and ensure efficient knowledge transfer within the company.
We like green, but not greenwashing. Only meaningful sustainability efforts can solve our local and global sustainability challenges. That's why we make sure that our advice is as concrete as possible and in line with the company's own guiding principles. We try to avoid mere concept papers or measures that disappear into a drawer and do not really contribute to sustainable business practices. Instead, we work together with companies to find levers that can really make a positive difference.

Our multidisciplinary team has a broad and in-depth knowledge of sustainability, strategy consulting and technology. We are therefore very diverse within the field of sustainability and bring a wide range of perspectives and backgrounds to the collaboration with our clients.
When our managing directors Dr. Merlin Köhnke and Kevin Möller founded Five Glaciers Consulting in 2023, Germany still had the five glaciers that gave the company its name. Now there are only four. This could make us feel hopeless, but instead it is our daily drive and motor.
Our extended team also includes a hand-picked network of highly specialized sustainability experts, e.g. on topics such as circular economy, life cycle assessment or sustainability innovation. We can call on these experts depending on the scope of the project and the topic.
Our primary goal when working with companies is to build up our customers' long-term expertise. For us, this is also sustainability: enabling companies to assess and drive forward most topics themselves from a certain point onwards.
We focus on the application of innovative methods, the latest data and scientific findings in order to develop forward-looking solutions for our customers.
Our holistic approach ensures that sustainability dimensions are interlinked and that synergies between different measures are optimally utilized.
In addition, we are always thinking one step ahead when it comes to legal regulations and upcoming standards and guidelines.
Sustainability is a serious matter, but it can also be fun to implement. We look forward to close, trusting and solution-oriented cooperation with our customers every day - knowing full well that we can only reach our goal together!
Contact us for all concerns and questions relating to sustainability. We are happy to make time for a personal meeting or a digital coffee.
