Conservation of resources in production
- Switch-over from conventional production of printing plates to a CTP platesetter = reduction of solvents
- Use of proof printer to create press proofs in proposed colour scheme prior to make-ready = conservation of resources (colour) + energy reduction (shortening of make-ready times)
- Recent switch to closed cooling water circuits has led to 80% less water consumption during production of corrugated board. Heat exchangers channel generated heat to heating applications.
- Water generated during flexographic wastewater treatment is used for example to produce starch adhesive.
- Humidifier equipment is used to ensure better flatness of the corrugated board during production -> reduction of waste and longer up-times
- Investments made based on both an economic and ecological background.
- Contractual partners (such as suppliers) must adhere to the same environmental standards as we do.
- Optimal utilisation of cargo space on lorries by procurement and despatch departments to reduce CO2 emissions
- State-of-the-art technology ensures higher efficiency and shorter production times as well as reduction in make-ready time with less waste during machine warm-up.
