We use reusable shuttle crates in electronics production at our Bruchsal site instead of individual packaging for internal deliveries. By switching from disposable towels to reusable towels in one production area, we have saved 50 000 disposable towels per year since the first quarter of 2022. All in all, other changes have helped us to save more than 1000 kg on waste volumes.
We now utilize reusable packaging from end to end in the internal material loop at our Graben-Neudorf plant. This saves on 4.5 metric tons of special waste every year. We have also been able to save 11.9 metric tons of cardboard and 1046 liters of anti-corrosion agents. Successive additional projects are being rolled out as part of a cross-site concept for reducing packaging materials.
