Environment

At JACO, we are not only ecologically sensitive but also contribute actively to lower environmental pollution.

• In consultation with our customers, we reduce the wall thickness of our products as far as possible.
• We grind our rejects and feed them completely into an external recycling process.
• We operate a photovoltaic facility with 380kWPeak on the roofs of our company building. We use about 80% of the generated power ourselves and feed the rest into the regional system.
• We are certified according to the “Alternative system to improve energy efficiency according to Sec. 3 SpaEfV”.
• We obtain thermal energy to heat our buildings from the waste heat of air compressors, the vacuum generation and process exhaust air.
• We have done away with refrigerating machines to cool our buildings and facilities and use well water instead.
• Our machinery is on a highly energy-efficient level.
• We offer bioplastics for all product applications permitting this material.
