  • Page 3: Caring For The Environment

    Caring for the environment Disposal of the packaging material The packaging material protects the dryer from transport damage. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are envi- ronmentally friendly for disposal and can therefore be recycled. Recycling the packaging material reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.
