Disposal and environmental protection

enVIronmentally frIendly ProductIon
We attach a great deal of importance to environmental protection when manufacturing our
products. We use recyclable plastics and colours. We deliberately avoid using polluting flame
retardants.
For our filter bags we use solvent-free adhesives, unbleached paper and non-hazardous plas-
tic. Our instruction manuals are made from sustainably managed forests and are bleached
without chlorine.

reusable materIal
The material for our products can nearly be completely recycled. We largely avoid using PVC.
When manufacturing our products, we use "sorted" materials:
The substances used can later be separated accordingly at modern facilities without much en-
ergy expenditure. To make them even easier for recycling, we have labelled most of our plastic
components.
