Circular economy
About our program
Limited natural resources and climate change are important drivers of the circular economy. A circular economy preferably starts at the very beginning of a product’s life cycle. Wavin has been an early adaptor in using recyclate (internal and post-consumer/producer waste) in its products. Our materials and products are designed to be reused and recycled to maximize environmental and financial value. Circularity is a broad concept which does not only include product reuse or lifetime extension. Next to a focus on increasing recyclate usage and improving the rate of recyclability of our products, we will continuously improve our procurement processes.
Goals
- Increase global recyclate usage to 25% (2025).
- Further grow the recyclability of our products to 90% (2025).
- Reduce Zero Waste to Landfill to 100% by 2025.
Confronting waste through innovation
The opportunities of recyclates are endless. Discover the calibration equipment we developed in collaboration with Van Werven to improve the quality and durability of recyclates and extend the lifecycle of products.
