Our total waste volume has been reduced by over 4% from 2022 to 2023.
Our CO₂ emissions have been reduced by 6.8% from 2022 to 2023.

SAFETY

We only accept 100% recycled plastic granules from our raw material suppliers, all located in Europe. 95% of plastic comes from European households and the rest is industrial waste plastic.

EXPERTISE

We have many years of experience in using recycled plastic in industrial production.

Responsibility

Using recycled plastic significantly reduces CO₂ emissions compared to the use of virgin materials and helps to strengthen the circular economy. We are happy to buy back road plates, regardless of condition, at 25% of the material value (current raw material price at the time of buyback)

Ongoing optimization

We continuously explore new ways to optimize our processes with a view to greener transitions.

This includes tests and trials on our own and in collaboration with third-party companies that have knowledge that can optimize our production.

We have also developed a Buy Back System that motivates our customers to return used materials:
