DISINFACTS | Issue 2/2024

Monofoil the use of recycled, biogenic and/or certified raw materials. And we design our products to reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout the value chain. We aim to continuously increase the recyclability of our product packaging. We want to minimise the toxic effects of our products on people, the environment and nature. This means more natural ingredients, less ’hard‘ chemistry and fewer environmental toxins. This applies to us as well as our suppliers: That is why we carry out regular audits of our suppliers. Good examples: Bacillol® and Sterillium® The new Bacillol® Zero Tissues represent a new, sustainable generation of professional disinfectant wipes: their disinfectant action is based on organic fruit acids. The plastic-free non-woven material is sourced from sustainable forestry. The packaging film is made of unmixed polypropylene and can be recycled. As a result, Bacillol® Zero wipes have a 75% lower carbon footprint than other low-alcohol disinfectant wipes - the ’market standard‘. ’Less is more’ also applies to our classic blue packaging: Sterillium® plastic bottles are now lighter. This alone saves 83 tonnes of raw material for the production of PE bottles each year. Optimising the bottle labels has also reduced production steps and improved the recycling process. And the ethanol used to produce it comes from renewable resources. We would like you to join us on our journey towards healthier and greener business practices. Support us by choosing our more sustainable disinfection solutions more often in the future! * only applies to the non-woven fibre without soaking solution Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50% by the year 2030 100% carbon neutral by 2050 A new white paper shows how sustainability can be achieved.
