The ECO-CHECK by Freudenberg was designed to help you quickly identify our most sustainable products. Not every product can carry the ECO-CHECK label; all products are reviewed by a committee, which evaluates if the product meets the defined criteria in at least one of four areas:
Our product is manufactured using processes that significantly reduce resource consumption. The product reduces resources through one or more of the following:
Our product helps our customers (or other participants in the product value chain) reduce their manufacturing footprint by one or more of the following:
Our product contributes to a reduced end-of-life impact of the final product by one of more the following:
Our product contributes to extending the life cycle of the final product through its technical performance through different criteria i.e. lightfastness, abrasion resistance, etc. This performance is higher than standard products, which contributes to an extended end-product lifetime.
Air quality in large cities is significantly improved by plants on roofs and facades. Nonwovens from Freudenberg Performance Materials are helpful in creating long-lasting waterproofing.
Innovative and sustainable water saving project in India.
At its plants, FPM recycles 2.5 billion PET bottles every year. The reclaimed polyester is used to create nonwovens for use in roof waterproofing, thermal and acoustic insulation.
Energy consumption reduced by around 20 percent? Sometimes it is the little things that together have a great effect.
Did you ever think that plastic bottles can help seal roofs? Freudenberg Performance Materials recycles around seven million PET bottles a day in its European facilities. The recycled polyester is used to make nonwoven material to seal roofs.
Around the globe, Freudenberg Performance Materials is working hard to consume less water and recycle more wastewater in production than ever. The work is worthwhile, as seen in three examples from Taiwan, India and South Africa.
