Together we grow for change

Sustainability

We have an unbreakable bond with the land. That’s why we make it our priority to take excellent care of it. We have defined three important principles that inspire us to be the most eco-friendly Crop Baling Solutions company in the world.
First, we’re using less plastic in our products. Second, we’re always innovating new products with sustainability in mind. And finally, we’re dedicated to ensuring nothing is wasted in our factories.

Recycle

We recycle it all.

From internal to external cycling, if it's recyclable, we'll give it another lifetime!

External cycle: The world as a raw material

Our production processes are enhanced by externally recycled materials so that nothing goes to waste. Ever.

Joint Cycle: Cooperation with Healix to solve the plastic problem, together

Waste is taken to the Healix recycling factory where the plastic is cleaned and re-processed into high quality infinity products.

Internal Cycle: Zero production waste!

We recycle everything we can. Many of our raw materials are made from recycled production waste from the get-go.
