Resource conservation and climate protection
Interzero works with customers and partners to close raw material loops and achieve long-term climate change mitigation and resource conservation. The prestigious Fraunhofer UMSICHT publishes studies confirming the positive ecological effects of our work.
Scientifically proven climate protection
In its annual study “resources SAVED by recycling”, the Fraunhofer Institute UMSICHT calculates the extent to which the environment has been helped by Interzero’s recycling services. In 2022 alone, this study showed that 2.1 million tonnes of resources were handled by closed-loop systems run by Interzero’s companies such as Interzero in Germany, Austria, Poland; Italy and Slovenia, saving around 8.7 million tonnes of primary raw materials. This is comparable to the weight of 174,267 single-family homes. The companies also saved around 1 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions – this corresponds to the average annualCO2 emissions of over 100,000 four-person households.
Reducing transportation, reusing IT devices
In another study from the “resources SAVED” series, Fraunhofer UMSICHT looked at the positive impact on resources and the climate from the refurbishing and reuse of IT and communications devices, as organised by Interzero. As one example, using refurbishment to extend the service life of just one laptop saves around 181 kg of primary raw materials and 154 kg of greenhouse gas emissions.
Interzero’s Mobile Counting Centre (MCC) also helps save resources. The local availability of the mobile counting service for non-refillable bottles means companies avoid long trips to stationary counting centres. “resources SAVED” shows that the MCC’s annual CO2 savings equal the amount removed by around three wooded football pitches.
“From recyclable product design to sustainable recovery, successful circular transformation requires all stakeholders in the value chain to pull together. “
