Purpose<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We are redesigning the system so that reuse becomes an easy and obvious choice for everyone.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”0px” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” css_animation=”none” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1787831831458{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” bg_color_value=”#F8E4F6″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Mission<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We’re changing the world of takeout packaging with a practical, eco-friendly, and easily accessible reusable system.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”23184″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”0px” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” css_animation=”none” css=”.vc_custom_1787831223277{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”23185″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Vision<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We envision a world where sustainable, reusable packaging is the new standard.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”0px” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” css_animation=”none” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1787831820250{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” bg_color_value=”#F8E4F6″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Core values<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]At reCIRCLE, we place sustainability and quality at the heart of everything we do; we take responsibility toward our partners, our users, and our planet; we foster innovation to develop simple and powerful solutions; we strive for customer satisfaction through reliable and friendly service; we move forward thanks to a team spirit that drives our ideas; and we are committed to meaningful work to shape a better future.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”23186″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”0px” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” css_animation=”none” css=”.vc_custom_1787831223277{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Taking a holistic approach<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We are guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established in 2015, which cover various aspects of sustainability. Our efforts focus primarily on four of these goals.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8837″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1658146895631{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” el_id=”sdg11″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8843″ img_size=”350×350″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Sustainable cities and communities<\/h5>\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” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1658146901499{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” el_id=”sdg12″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Responsible consumption and production<\/h5>\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=”8847″ img_size=”350×350″ alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1658146864761{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” el_id=”sdg13″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8851″ img_size=”350×350″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Climate protection measures<\/h5>\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” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1658146857557{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” el_id=”sdg14″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Life under water<\/h5>\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=”8855″ img_size=”350×350″ alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1658146864761{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” bg_color_value=”#ffffff”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”19084″ img_size=”350×350″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”blockh5″]<\/p>\n

Life on land<\/h5>\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][vc_row disable_element=”yes” full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”0px” content_placement=”middle” full_height=”yes” equal_height=”yes” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1787833872324{background-color: #ffffff !important;}” bg_color_value=”#fafafa”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

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 disable_element=”yes” full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”0px” content_placement=”middle” equal_height=”yes” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1787833875693{padding-top: 90px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}” bg_color_value=”#fafafa”][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]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
