Through the continuous optimisation of our processes and the careful selection of raw materials in product development, we are contributing to the reduction of energy consumption, emissions, waste water and waste generation. We are constantly ensuring strict compliance in accordance with the standards
for environmental and energy management systems in line with ISO 14001 and ISO 50001. Recycling is a top priority at Perlon®. We have our own company for this purpose, RECYTEC. Here, unmixed plastic waste can be processed and fed back into the material cycle in various ways.
