PET as a material for high-quality recycling

Thanks to its properties, PET is particularly well suited to high-quality recycling and can be processed into new PET bottles through bottle-to-bottle recycling. The use of PET recyclates reduces CO₂ emissions and energy consumption, thereby helping to protect the climate and conserve resources. Controlled take-back schemes, modern recycling processes and strict quality controls ensure a high standard of quality.

Industrial recycling of solar panels: When long-lasting solar panels become valuable raw materials

Solar panels are long-lasting products which, at the end of their useful life, contain valuable raw materials. Through our industrial recycling of solar panels, we mechanically break down the complex composite materials and recover materials such as glass, metals and silicon for further use. For commercial customers, we offer bespoke disposal solutions – ranging from individual solar panels to entire solar farms, including dismantling, logistics and recycling. In this way, we lay the foundations for keeping valuable resources within the economic cycle and reusing them as secondary raw materials.

What should not be put in the glass recycling bin? How to ensure high-quality glass recycling

Used glass can only be recycled to a high standard if only glass packaging is disposed of in the glass recycling bin. Foreign materials such as ceramics or glass-ceramics impair the quality of the glass cullet and can significantly disrupt the recycling process. Find out which materials belong in the glass recycling bin and which do not, so that you can make an important contribution to resource conservation.
