In the rapidly evolving automotive industry, sustainability has become a key focus for manufacturers and suppliers alike. Kautex Textron, a global leader in automotive solutions, has taken significant strides in this direction with its Green+ product line. This program is designed to reduce the environmental impact of automotive components and promote a more sustainable future.
With its innovative Green+ products, Kautex is setting ambitious new standards for environmental responsibility. A minimum of 20% biomass materials or 25% recycled materials are used in Green+ products, ensuring an active contribution to a circular economy, as well as a decrease in dependence on virgin resources.
After the successful launch of the first Pentatonic serial product, Kautex is ready to take the next step: making its products even more sustainable. The thermoplastic components of these products can now contain up to an impressive 100% recycled material, leading to a percentage of up to 60% recycled material of the finished product. This remarkable achievement reduces CO2 equivalent emissions by up to 55% for a Pentatonic product and underscores a dedication to minimizing waste and maximizing the use of sustainable resources. By integrating such high levels of recycled content, Kautex is paving the way for a greener, more sustainable future in the automotive industry.
