REUSABILITY AS THE NEW \u201cNORMAL\u201d<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]We think it\u2019s a pity to use packaging only once before throwing it away. We value our limited and incredibly valuable resources and are therefore committed to reusable packaging. Before recycling, the packaging is reused hundreds of times – that is our idea of a circular economy.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#fafafa” css=”.vc_custom_1650292701707{padding-top: 90px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

HELLO REUSABILITY!<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”content800″]Reuse should be simply normal, not the exception. We value quality. Why shouldn\u2019t we also eat and drink from high-quality packaging?[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1649877793464{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 90px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”5274″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”image250″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

A COMPANY WITH A MISSION<\/h2>\n

Our goal is to replace single-use packaging with reusable, high-quality, affordable and greener alternatives.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1649877853583{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

HOLISTIC THINKING AND ACTION<\/h2>\n

Our actions are guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals. These are global sustainability goals defined in 2015 to promote a holistically sustainable future. Four of them in particular affect our work.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”MORE INFO” align=”left” link=”url:%23|” el_class=”recircleButton”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8836″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1658146895631{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” el_id=”sdg11″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8842″ img_size=”350×350″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

SUSTAINABLE CITIES AND COMMUNITIES<\/h2>\n

Reusing packaging and relying on the deposit system generate less packaging waste. With reCIRCLE, towns and communities can both reduce littering and cut their high waste disposal costs.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1658146901499{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}” el_id=”sdg12″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION AND PRODUCTION<\/h2>\n

reCIRCLE focuses on local production, short transport routes and high-quality, durable products. Recycling is factored into planning right from the start. In our day-to-day activities, we raise awareness of waste issues and show how we can improve together.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8846″ img_size=”350×350″ alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1658146864761{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” el_id=”sdg13″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8850″ img_size=”350×350″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

CLIMATE PROTECTION MEASURES<\/h2>\n

By reusing takeaway packaging instead of throwing it away, we jointly save many valuable resources and CO2 because washing up is more ecological than disposing of an item after a single use. In this way, all reCIRCLErs contribute together to more climate protection.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1658146857557{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}” el_id=”sdg14″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

LIFE UNDER WATER<\/h2>\n

Plastic pollutes our oceans, lakes and rivers. reCIRCLE tackles the problem at its roots: through reuse and the deposit system, less plastic ends up in the environment and thus in the water.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8854″ img_size=”350×350″ alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1658146864761{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”19084″ img_size=”350×350″ css=””][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

LIFE ON LAND<\/h2>\n

Littering threatens natural habitats and biodiversity, as plastic is mistaken for food by microorganisms. Single-use packaging promotes deforestation and resource depletion. The reCIRCLE reusable system keeps resources in circulation and thus protects terrestrial ecosystems and biodiversity in line with SDG 15.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
