Successful initial certification according to DIN EN ISO 14001

A milestone for our company! After almost a year of inten­sive prepa­ra­tion, we have achieved it: Our company has been successfully certi­fied accor­ding to DIN EN ISO 14001:2015. This initial certi­fi­ca­tion by the certi­fi­ca­tion company Quacert is proof that we meet all the requi­re­ments of this inter­na­tional standard for environ­mental manage­ment systems. As of today, we can offici­ally confirm that our commit­ment to environ­mental protec­tion is syste­matic and compliant with the standards.

DIN EN ISO 14001 places high demands on a company’s environ­mental perfor­mance. It requires not only compli­ance with existing environ­mental regula­tions but also the conti­nuous impro­ve­ment of corpo­rate environ­mental protec­tion. Thanks to the outstan­ding coope­ra­tion of our colle­agues and the support of our partner compa­nies, we were able to successfully overcome this hurdle. Sincere thanks to everyone who contri­buted to this success with their dedica­tion and exper­tise!

We are parti­cu­larly proud that we already met almost all environ­mental requi­re­ments before the standard was intro­duced. This certi­fi­ca­tion now provides written confir­ma­tion of what we have long practiced in our daily work. This confir­ma­tion not only provides us with internal security but also allows us to offer our custo­mers additional added value: They can rely on our proven environ­men­tally friendly and sustainable opera­tions.

We are convinced that this certi­fi­ca­tion is another step in the right direc­tion – for us, for our custo­mers, and for the environ­ment. Let’s continue to focus on sustainable solutions together and make our contri­bu­tion to an environ­men­tally conscious future!

FAKUMA 2024

October 15 to 19, 2024, Friedrichshafen Exhibition Center

We have started FAKUMA 2024 with new brochures – as usual with the tried and tested infor­ma­tion for practi­tio­ners (also available here on our website).

The current economic situa­tion in Europe and Germany was certainly noticeable, so we were all the more pleased that many of our long-standing custo­mers still made the trip to Fried­richs­hafen. And it was worth it, there was again a lot to see and experi­ence at this year’s FAKUMA.

For us, too, it is always exciting to learn about new techno­lo­gies and possi­bi­li­ties, especi­ally in the direc­tion of incre­asing effici­ency.

At the trade fair stand, we took another step towards sustaina­bi­lity and, with the active support of Nowaste and their treecups, served drinks from biode­gra­dable reusable cups. A joint project between Nowaste, Tecnaro, Saur Werkzeugbau and EP Kunst­stoff­technik GmbH.

And last but not least, this year instead of dolphins made of biopla­stic, there was a trade fair dog at our stand!

Trolley Run 2024 of the Steinbeis Community School Ilsfeld

October 12, 2024, Kaufland Ilsfeld parking lot

As in 2023, we were again repre­sented in 2024 as a sponsor for a class at the Trolley Run of the Stein­beis Commu­nity School in Ilsfeld. With the plastic parts we provided, a shopping cart was designed, built and sent into the race accor­ding to the students’ wishes. During the race itself, a bucket of water is trans­ported in each trolley and, in addition to speed, the aim is to spill as little water as possible.

The aim of this campaign is to encou­rage students and sponsors to be more careful with our water resource.

Even though our fifth-graders did not win first place, we are very proud of their perfor­mance and, above all, their motiva­tion!

We were delighted to be part of this great event and to support the school partner­ship in South Africa with our donation.

FAKUMA 2023

October 17 to 21, 2023, Friedrichshafen Exhibition Center

The first FAKUMA after the Corona years has finally attracted signi­fi­cantly more experts to Fried­richs­hafen. The exhibi­tion stand of the Baden-Württem­berg Plastics Techno­logy Working Group was once again in the familiar location at the entrance to Hall A1. With the company Jura-Plast, we were able to gain a new co-exhibitor.

The highlight at the EUROplast exhibi­tion stand was the ultra­sonic welding machine with which we welded a dolphin made of biopo­ly­mers in coope­ra­tion with Herrmann Ultra­schall and the company Tecnaro and distri­buted it to the trade fair visitors.

The major issues of security of supply, price increases on the raw material side and energy costs were popular topics of discus­sion. Other major topics were advan­cing digita­liza­tion, automa­tion, energy effici­ency and sustaina­bi­lity.

We are looking forward to next year’s FAKUMA, which will hopefully be a conti­nua­tion of this really successful trade fair!

FAKUMA 2021

Oct. 2021 – 16 Oct. 2021, Friedrichshafen Exhibition Center

Until shortly before the start of the trade fair, it was unclear whether Fakuma could take place due to the Corona infec­tion situa­tion. We were very pleased that the decision was made to hold the event. Despite the stricter hygiene regula­tions, interested parties and exhibi­tors decided to attend the trade fair.

The number of visitors was manageable, but we were still able to have some good conver­sa­tions. Personal exchange is and remains very important in our view. We are confi­dent that next year’s trade fair can take place as usual.
