Who is investing in sustainability? The clear answer: the majority of our customers. The proof lies in the sales figures of our enviro portfolio, which have been steadily rising since 2018.
For almost all machines in our portfolio, customers can choose between a basic version and an enviro variant. The latter is characterized by particularly high energy and media efficiency, as proven in an objective certification process.
In 2018, the share of enviro variants sold was just eleven percent. However, in the following years, the curve continued to rise, reaching an important milestone in 2022. With 55 percent, enviro products took a majority share for the first time. And the trend continues: last year, the figure climbed to 65 percent.
Energy efficiency for all
By the way, customers who opt for the basic variant also benefit from the high demand. Many of the technological options initially developed or selected for the enviro product line are gradually incorporated into the configuration of basic machines. As the enviro program progresses, the energy and media efficiency, as well as the environmental compatibility of the entire portfolio, improve. This means that even customers who primarily decide based on initial procurement costs receive solutions to permanently improve the energy efficiency of their production and consequently reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
