AMPri is committed to the protection of endangered wilderness
Taking responsibility. Protecting the future.
Since 2022, AMPri and Wilderness International have been working together to protect endangered rainforest areas. With the AMPri company forests in the Madre de Dios region in Peru and on Porcher Island in Canada, impact projects have been launched that protect valuable rainforest and with it the habitat for a huge diversity of species and enable a healthy climate.
Join in and protect even more rainforest together with AMPri!

The commitment of AMPri
The commitment of AMPri
In addition to the regular protection of the rainforest, AMPri also supports us with gloves for our team members in Peru. Together, we also check the biodegradability of this product.
The gloves are very practical for the team's daily field work in Peru.
The team naturally convinced themselves of their biodegradability.
Thank you very much for your support!
Since 1994, we at AMPri have stood for reliable quality, social responsibility and sustainable action. With Wilderness International, we have a strong partner at our side who shares our values and supports us in measurably reducing our ecological footprint - for a future worth living.

Impressions from the protected area in Peru
The AMPri forest is located in the Madre de Dios region of Peru. There are 10 times more reptiles and amphibians there than in Germany, around 10% of all bird species in the world can be observed here and around 400 tree species can be found on one hectare of forest, more than in the whole of Europe north of the Alps.
Giant jungle trees such as this kapok tree can grow over 70 meters high. More than 60% of all animal and plant species live in the rainforest canopy.
Imposing buttress roots provide stability for the jungle's giant trees.
Weighing up to 75 kg, capybaras are the largest rodents in the world.

The wilderness areas that AMPri protects in the temperate rainforest are located on Porcher Island on the west coast of Canada. They are the most species-rich ecosystem in the northern hemisphere. Their ancient giant trees provide a secure habitat for an incredible number of animal and plant species.

The marine mammals off the coast are also dependent on the forest.
The temperate rainforest is full of ferns and mosses.
Nestled in soft layers of ancient sphagnum moss grows rare long-leaved sundew, its nectar drops glistening in a rare sunbeam. In the silence of the bog, it lures flies into its trap with its sticky tentacles.
