An ecologically sound production process and a sustainably designed workplace form a crucial part of the aluplast eco guidelines, which are reflected in our environment-friendly products.

For our Eco-Management system, we are certified according to ISO 50001. We have been able to significantly cut our energy consumption by introducing a new, highly-efficient compressed-air screw compressor, streamlining the energy consumption of production lines and applying a range of other measures. This means that our production facilities now have the lowest energy consumption figures in Europe.

PVC can be recycled up to seven times without any compromises in terms of material quality. We began thinking about recycling a long, long time ago. We not only helped to drive towards the creation of Rewindo – an association dedicated to window recycling where uPVC window fabricators make a voluntary commitment to sustainable business – we have also invested heavily in recycling facilities for our Karlsruhe Head Office site. When we start developing our innovative products, we factor in recycling right from the outset. Take our energeto® windows, for instance: all of their materials can be separated with ease and then recycled.

The raw materials used for our window profiles are based on a calcium-zinc chemical stabiliser that is strictly lead-free. With this eco-friendly stabiliser and our involvement in “VINYL 2010” (which implies the use of recycled materials in our plastic profiles. among other things), aluplast offers window systems that can be fabricated and recycled in an ecologically sound way.

As the uPVC window sector rapidly expands in Australia, we are committed to ensuring and growing the opportunities to recycle our products in responsible ways. In 2022 we started working with our Australian fabricators and companies in our industry to reduce waste throughout the fabrication process and ensure waste uPVC, such as material offcuts in the fabrication process are gathered and recycled for use in new products wherever possible. After many decades of use, end of life windows can be recycled.
