How businesses can do more with less: making a positive impact on the environment through innovative technology
June 2021
Many industries are facing significant environmental and social challenges today. In particular, the Paris Climate Agreement has set benchmarks for the reduction of CO2 emissions and standards that businesses must adhere to in the interests of the planet.
The Oerlikon Group’s presence among the 50 Sustainability and Climate Leaders is just one of the tangible ways in which it demonstrates its commitment towards taking concrete, effective actions that use fewer resources for greater results.
Do more with less. This is the ambition of the Oerlikon group and it is the pledge that TKW Materials makes to clients and potential clients who are considering making the move from traditional nonwoven production to our Phantom hybrid solution.
Hybrid Phantom technology: the new paradigm of sustainable innovation.
June 2021
Innovation is not only about pushing technology to the highest possible standards, but also about doing so in a smart, sustainable way.
- Economic sustainability, through more affordable solutions and services that require few resources so that our clients can achieve the same results with less.
- Environmental sustainability, via products with longer life cycles and by reducing waste destined for landfill.
- Last, but most definitely not least, social sustainability, with excellent working conditions for our employees all over the world, responsible and dependable relationships with our suppliers, partners and investors, and a credible, certified supply chain.
For TKW Materials, sustainability is all this and more.
