Part 4: Recycling & disposal - circular economy as a goal
30.06.2025Our products are designed to last. But there comes a point when they need to be replaced. To ensure they don't end up in the bin, we use recyclable materials and well thought-out disposal solutions.
Our approaches for better recycling options
- Green Label product line: We develop products that are particularly easy to recycle and are made from sustainable materials.
- Partnerships for more efficient recycling: We work with specialists to promote a sensible circular economy.
- Material recycling at a glance: As early as the product development stage, we ensure that the materials used can later be recycled.
For you, this means: products that last a long time - and can be sensibly recycled rather than simply disposed of at the end of their life cycle.
Detailed information and further examples can be found in our sustainability report.
In the next part of our series on sustainability in the product life cycle, we will focus on the product carbon footprint (PCF) and CO₂e reduction.
