We wish to make sustainable choices in every step of our manufacturing process and when expanding our business activities. Therefore, we specifically chose to pack our box systems in cardboard, being by far the most recyclable material. Sustainability also played an important role when deciding on a new supplier.

We teamed up with Europal, a Belgian company from Mouscron, to supply our endless amounts of cardboard (from which we cut our own boxes to size.) Before that, our cardboard came from Italy and, bearing in mind that we receive a delivery of 30 pallets, equivalent to one full lorry, every week, we can reduce our travel distances by more than 36,000 kilometres per year. This means an annual reduction of CO2 emissions by a grand total of 28.6 tons!
