BOBST is committed to taking measures that will help design, manufacture, operate and recycle machines across the four industries it serves: labels, flexible packaging, folding carton, corrugated board; as well as in services. Through a materiality assessment recently conducted following the methodological recommendations of the GRI, BOBST is driving the future of packaging production through defined and identified projects fitting into three strategic streams: – BOBST operations; – BOBST equipment; – Packaging use & end-of-life. The environmental footprint of packaging is addressed holistically throughout its life cycle. A main focus area is the end-of-life of packaging, in particular the design for recyclability of packaging. Sustainability is strongly anchored in BOBST’s vision for the future. We are on the way to designing for recyclability, and this will be an ongoing process for the future.
