Sustainability means to use materials and produce products, which have a better environmental impact. To reach this objective, we are focusing on a circular economy, that means reusing and recycling of products and materials. This approach enables the reduction of producing new material as well as disposal and lowers the environmental impact. This approach also follows the EU-strategy for a circular economy in 2050.
