Real corporate culture in remote teams: how to nurture it without an office
You have 40 people spread across 8 countries and 3 time zones. Your corporate culture is Slack stickers, animated GIFs, and a 3-day annual offsite. In a remote team, selective physical gestures do what the office did for free: signal belonging to someone who is never physically with the team.

In a co-located office, culture is transmitted through passive contact: you see your manager congratulating a teammate, hear someone talk about their child, sense the atmosphere when someone returns from leave, observe how someone in crisis is treated. It’s effortless cultural absorption.
In a remote team, this disappears. What your team "absorbs" is what happens in their (functional) meetings and on their Slack (transactional). The human part is lost. Gestures toward teammates go unnoticed because they are not seen.
Selective physical gestures compensate for this: when a teammate receives a baby basket for the birth of their child and shows it at the next all-hands, the rest of the remote team sees it. It recovers the "cultural absorption" that happened naturally in the office.

How to activate it remotely without operational friction
International shipping
We confirm availability and lead time for the chosen contents before agreeing any special delivery.
Asynchronous visibility
The employee shows it at the next all-hands or shares it in your Slack "life events" channel. Culture is transmitted the same without an office.
No coordination friction
For a recurring programme, ask us about the information and arrangements required. Integration with your HR system is not included by default.
Predictable deadlines by country
We give you a fixed deadline by destination before production. If the window is tight (pre-leave, anniversary), we notify you.
Frequently asked questions
How does shipping work to countries with complex customs (USA, UK, Mexico)?
We handle customs clearance at origin with DDP (Delivered Duty Paid). The employee pays nothing upon receipt. Average time: 5-8 days after production. The DDP cost is included in the B2B rate.
What if the employee's address changes between program signing and shipping?
Updatable until the day of production. Once produced and shipped, it follows the carrier's return policies (DHL, UPS, Correos Express depending on route).
What do you do with employees in countries where silicone is not approved (different local regulations)?
We work with food-grade silicone under European CE1935 marking, accepted in the EU, UK, Switzerland, Canada, USA, Australia, and Singapore. For destinations with specific regulations (India, Brazil), we confirm beforehand.
Compatibility with "global mobility" (employees moving between countries)?
Yes. If the employee changes country between two cases (first child in Madrid, second in Berlin), we follow their active address. Centralized program, shipments by destination.
Do you have cases with remote-first companies?
Assess the programme using your own data and recipients’ responses. We do not present customer results or retention improvements as a guarantee.
Distributed culture with selective physical gestures
If your team is remote and your culture is becoming transactional, this is one of the physical gestures with the highest cultural return per euro invested. Let's talk.
