Ecology

Dealing with resources and environmental protection

By consciously and carefully handling resources and using innovative technologies, we reduce emissions, minimize our CO2 footprint and our energy consumption. This is what we stand for in the Wirthwein Group with our ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certifications.

Organic plastics

For years, we have been dealing with renewable raw materials such as biopolymers or biodegradable polymers, which we use for customer-specific products. For our customers, biopolymers can be an ecological alternative to plastics already in use.

Recycling cycle and material flows

Where waste is unavoidable, we accept the responsibility of sorting waste by type of premium quality and valuable raw materials. For example, plastic residues generated during production are sorted by type and returned to the recycling loop in a controlled manner. Thus, we create a resource-saving solution and make an important contribution to environmental protection.

We put words into action: 

  • Bicycle leasing
  • Electric mobility
  • Efficient energy recycling in production
