HAMBERGER SANITARY goes green
![Join us on our way](/site/assets/files/31940/sustainability.jpg)
The focus of our environmental management system is the continuous further development of our environmental performance in terms of ecologically sustainable and environmentally friendly production. Our long-standing ISO 14001 certification shows that we have already achieved great success in this area.
With the help of an advanced energy management system, we are permanently reducing our own energy consumption and at the same time increasing our energy efficiency in accordance with ISO standard 50001.

Recycling
- 1/3 of the material used for thermoset models is renewable cellulose.
- Thermoplastic seats are fully recyclable.
- Production waste is recycled: e.g. thermoset as blasting agent for paint removal.
![Sustainable packaging](/site/assets/files/25950/icon-package-70k.png)
Packing
- Wherever possible, plastic packaging is replaced by other materials.
- Where plastic is still needed, we reduce the amount used and/or use more environmentally friendly materials (e.g. biodegradable plastic).
- We continue to evaluate and test new packaging solutions (e.g. alternative packaging for hinges).
