Our drinking water we obtain from the municipal water supply.
The composition of our waste water is equivalent to that of domestic waste water.
A large proportion of water is consumed by the sanitary facilities. Water consumed in production is largely related to test runs on products. In order to maintain our high quality standard, the number of test runs cannot be reduced.

Our primary target is to achieve savings in water, energy and chemicals during the use phase of our products.

The increase of the water consumption resulted from extensive endurance tests which were carried out in relation to the development of new dishwashers and the improvement design of our heat pump technology.

The main target of those developments is the reduction of water, energy and chemicals which are used for the operation of the manufactured products.

Waste

A significant proportion of our waste is subject to recycling.

By applying waste-optimized sheet metal cutting technology, the amount of Cr/Ni waste is reduced to a minimum.
The majority of purchased parts are delivered in reusable packaging or in multi-unit rather than single packaging.
Returned machines are dismantled, the materials separated and recycled.

The delivery of purchased components in reusable containers respectively the use of batch packages instead of single parts packing caused the reduction of paper and paper board waste by 33%.

The materials from old machines which are taken back after the end of life cycle are separated for recycling. The outcome of this is the amount of:

Scrap iron
Non ferrous metals
Cables

A significant reduction of these waste materials is hardly to achieve.
