CO2 NEUTRAL COMPANY

SUSTAINABILITY – OUR CO₂ BALANCE
Whether foam inserts, load carriers or any of our individual packaging solutions – the production of foam packaging generates unavoidable CO² emissions.
As your partner for foam packaging, Wetropa feels it has a responsibility to make its contribution to neutralize these CO² emissions and to make the company more sustainable in accordance with “avoid, reduce, neutralize”. Economic, ecological and social sustainability is very important to us and is lived by us. Already in 2013 the company was certified according to ISO 14001.
THE PRINCIPLE OF CLIMATE NEUTRALITY

AVOID, REDUCE, NEUTRALIZE
WE AVOID AND REDUCE…
Through continuous process improvement and optimization of the material usage already during the development of our foam packaging (waste avoidance), an uneconomic use of resources is avoided. Through the reduced, but nevertheless optimal use of materials, your packaging is produced taking sustainability factors into account.
The economic viability of the company is not disregarded here.
Social sustainability with regard to the continued existence of the company, job security and an ethically impeccable and reliable environment for our employees and customers is already one of our focal points.
WE NEUTRALIZE…
…by supporting climate protection projects through ClimatePartner!
The carbon dioxide formed by technical processes is problematic for our climate, as it cannot be neutralized by nature in the quantities produced. We, as a company, make our contribution to nature by neutralizing the CO² generated by our processes by supporting a climate protection project.
The basis is the greenhouse gas balance. Here the CO² drivers in the company are identified and reduction potentials are derived. Emissions that cannot be avoided in the short term can be offset by the ClimatePartner process certified by TÜV-Austria by supporting recognized climate protection projects.
THESE CLIMATE PROTECTION PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY SUPPORTED BY WETROPA-GROUP:
GLOBAL MARINE PROTECTION
with a compensation quantity of approx. 300 tons CO2
FOREST PROTECTION IN PERU
with a compensation amount of approx. 1200 tons CO2
DETERMINATION OF OUR CO² EMISSION
- Herstellung unserer Rohstoffe
(Produktionsmaterial, Verpackungsmaterial, Hilfs- und Betriebsstoffe)
Vom Lieferanten zur Produktion (LKW, Bahn, Schiffstransport, Flug) - Energieverbrauch in der Produktion und Verwaltung (Strom, Prozesswärme, Verwaltung, Geschäftsreisen, Mitarbeiteranfahrt)
- von der Produktion zum Kunden (LKW, Bahn, Schiffstransport, Flug)
CLIMATE BALANCE
The result of our CO2 emissions we get in a
Carbon footprint. This is the starting point for our further activities in environmental protection. Here we support various climate protection projects at ClimatePartner.
