#Sustainability in Action

Sustainability on paper alone is useless. We can only bring change by changing things. To get into action and start doing! At the bottom of this page, you'll find an overview of all our sustainability projects, both large and small. Every action and every project contributes its own piece, and together we make an impact.

    What is #SustainabilityInAction?

    It’s more than just a hashtag - it's a call to action. We take practical, tangible steps to make a meaningful difference in advancing life around the world. We always focus on turning our theories and ideas into concrete actions and measure our success by results rather than intentions and initiatives alone. Even as we reach for the sky, our ambitions are meant to be grounded.

    Take Back recycling service
    The Wavin Take Back Service (in Germany, Colombia, Netherlands) collects and recycles used plastic pipes from contractors. Instead of being thrown away as construction waste, these pipes are gathered for recycling.
    Delivering Environmental Product Declarations (EPD)
    We started creating product specific EPD’s on sku’s level as one of the firsts in the sector, to provide transparency on footprint calculations to our customers. We’re on track to have 100% of our portfolio (excluding third-party products) covered by 2025.

Wooden blocks spelling out ‘LOW CARBON’ are placed on a wooden surface, symbolizing the commitment to carbon neutrality and sustainable practices. The blurred greenery in the background emphasizes the environmental aspect of these concepts.

    We introduced and provided a range of bio-based products to proactively boost the growing demand for fossil-based alternatives.
