Protection of resources and recycling
The best way to protect resources is to manufacture products with a long service life. Components of copper are extremely durable and long lived. On the energy saving and environmental side, recycling is the most sustainable method for protecting resources. Consequently, recycling is an important issue for which we, together with our partners, have been developing processes successfully for many years. This applies not only to the copper materials we use in the main, but also to our packaging.

Recycling of copper and copper alloys
Copper and copper alloys are fully recyclable – again and again without sacrifice to quality. As a result, our foundry can easily remelt single-variety material returned by customers. This we use intensively. Semifinished products we manufacture from scrap release up to 90% fewer CO2-emissions than the production of virgin metals.
