We adhere to the principles of the circular economy to the highest possible extent. We make our main products from strong galvanized structural steel, which provides a much longer service life compared to similar plastic products. After it ends, all our products are subject to recycling.
We can conscientiously declare our production as the most effective. We try not to burden the environment and minimize our carbon footprint. At the same time, we contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reducing pressure on ecosystems and natural resources.
WE MAINTAIN AND COMBINE PRODUCTION WITH ECOLOGY.
Our products are therefore:

Life cycle of steel and plastic in terms of sustainability
Plastic
With proper maintenance and without excessive loading, plastic containers can last from 5 to 10 years on average. Their lifespan can be affected by many factors, e.g. if they are exposed to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight or frequent overloading.
Plastic will gradually become brittle and prone to damage, and the life of plastic containers can be significantly shortened.
Plastics can be recycled multiple times, but after each recycling cycle, their quality and properties can gradually deteriorate.
Steel
Steel containers stand out for their longevity, which exceeds plastic alternatives several times. Thanks to their robust construction and resistance to external influences, they are a long-term investment in sustainability and efficiency. Their service life is significantly longer, which contributes to reducing the need for frequent replacement and thus to waste reduction.
In addition, steel, as a material, can be recycled at the end of the container's life, meaning that its parts can be reused to make new products. This makes steel containers a more environmentally responsible choice compared to plastic variants, which are more difficult to recycle and often end up as waste in landfills.
An investment in steel containers is an investment in permanence and sustainability.
If there are signs of wear or if there is damage, they are relatively easy to repair. It is possible to manufacture and replace the damaged parts, thus extending their functionality without having to discard the entire container. This modularity and reparability makes them a very practical and economical solution.
