Sysplast wins the 1st Bavarian Resource Efficiency Award!

Resource-efficient economic management protects the climate –
1st Bavarian resource efficiency award goes to four companies – including Sysplast GmbH.

Saving resources protects the climate and the environment. For the first time, the Bavarian environment ministry has honoured companies for their care in dealing with resources. At the award ceremony today in Munich, Bavaria’s environment minister, Thorsten Glauber, said: ‘Resource efficiency is an imperative of economic, ecological and political common sense. Our natural resources are limited. With the Bavarian Resource Efficiency Award, we are honouring enterprises that distinguish themselves through their outstanding commitment. These companies are true pioneers in matters of climate and environmental protection. The efficient use of resources additionally lowers companies’ costs, increases their competitiveness and reduces their dependence on the import of raw materials. We must not wait until the resources of our planet are exhausted. We must advance climate and resource protection. In conjunction with the business sector, we are striving to increase resource efficiency.’

The Bavarian Resource Efficiency Award honours Bavarian businesses, especially small and medium-sized companies and craft enterprises. The award, which includes prize money of 10,000 euros, is part of the new environmental and climate agreement between the Bavarian state government and the Bavarian business sector. The award ceremony was held at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry for Munich and Upper Bavaria, the cooperation partner of the Centre for Basic Materials Efficiency (REZ).

The 1st Bavarian Resource Efficiency Award is presented to:
Sysplast GmbH (Nuremberg). The company produces plastic regranulates that are of equal quality to new material. In addition, it advances innovative processes for the recycling of composite materials. Through the use of recompounds from Sysplast, companies can reduce both their costs and their CO2 emissions. By saving valuable resources, they improve their ecological performance and show how economy and ecology can be combined.
