Careful use of resources

Increasing ecological awareness is becoming more and more of a focus and will change the economy of industrialized nations towards an equal triad of economy, ecology and social commitment. Resource scarcity, climate change and rising raw material prices are clear signs that we will have to attach greater importance to energy and resource conservation in economic growth in the future.

We want to support companies and manufacturers in this. PDR has been pursuing a sustainable corporate policy since it was founded over 30 years ago. Our aim is to close material cycles with our business partners. As far as economically possible, we recycle production residues and waste into marketable products.

Our company name reflects our claim: PDR - Products through Recycling. We are constantly expanding our leading role in the field of material recycling. As a recycling specialist, we strengthen the competitiveness of our business partners. This is why resource scarcity need not only be a cause for concern. For us, it is rather a driving force for innovative solutions. As in the art of origami folding, it all starts with imagination, from which a work of art takes shape through systematics, perseverance and care.

Manufacturer.

Manufacturers are responsible for their products and their environmental compatibility: PDR is ideally at your side right from the start of the product development process in order to find an optimal recycling solution. We are also your partner for material recycling of production residues or faulty batches.

Consumers/users.

We also support you by collecting or retrieving waste from your customers. We develop a suitable logistics solution for this. PDR helps you to inform the consumers or users of your products about recycling in the best possible way. Experience has shown that the simplest possible return system increases participation.

Take-back service.

For an optimal take-back service, we rely on nationwide take-back points: Systems that do not incur any additional costs for the consumer enjoy the highest level of acceptance. PDR stands for efficient logistics in order to keep CO2 emissions as low as possible.

Material recycling.

Sensible material recycling is far superior to disposal and incineration. This is also proven by life cycle analyses of recyclates. At the same time, you can improve your CO2 footprint through material recycling.
