A STRICT ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY FOR THE FUTURE

PELLENC is undertaking a sustainable development process, aimed at limiting the environmental impact of its activities. The group is incorporating this idea across the board, from product design onwards. As well as the product lifecycle, PELLENC’s environmental policy covers the industrial system used in manufacture and the infrastructures accommodating the business’s human resources and organisation. This covers the manufacturing side as well as the infrastructures hosting the company’s human resources and organisation. PELLENC also sets targets for its suppliers to meet the standards of its environmental policy.

ECO-DESIGNING PRODUCTS WITH LOW ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT IN MIND

As part of its overall business procedure, PELLENC takes an active role in environmental protection and the smooth running of the circular economy. As an industrial manufacturer, we constantly endeavour to reduce our manufacturing and packaging waste, to optimise our logistics and to save natural resources, with our choice of lithium-ion batteries, using a non-heavy metal which is over 98%* recyclable. Our range of battery power tools have minimum CO2 emissions. Concerned to ensure continuing innovative design of our range of battery power tools, up to the end of their life, and subject to WEEE (Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment) regulations, we have joined two government-approved organisations to create a partnership with our network for recovering tools and batteries at the end of their lives.

LIMITING THE IMPACT OF THE END OF SERVICE LIFE

The first objective in the design of PELLENC products is to maximise their life span in professional working conditions. This delays end of life significantly and reduces the environmental impact. PELLENC also gives preference to recyclable materials and makes sure its product components are marked with material codes to help recycling. Finally, PELLENC provides end of life data sheets to guide recycling workers in dismantling the products. As for our batteries, the lithium-ion they contain is 98%* recyclable. In our concern for the innovative design of our range of battery power tools, up to the end of their lives, we have decided to join the following approved ecoorganisations: Don’t hesitate to ask your distributor if you need more information on the conditions for collecting and returning your tools to their sales outlets.

We also recommend you consult the websites of these environmental organisations who have very useful explanatory videos about how the WEEE and the battery disposal network are organised.
