LIXIL VISION FOR SUSTAINABLE LIVING

 

 

FOCUSING ON THREE STRATEGIC CR PILLARS IN CONNECTION TO THE UN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

HOW ALL LIXIL BRAND´S SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES CONTRIBUTE TO THE STRATEGIC PILLARS

LESS-PLASTIC-INITIATIVE

In 2018, GROHE launched its initiative to replace plastic in product packaging with more sustainable alternatives.
Until February 2021, approximately 27 million items of product packaging made from plastic could be eliminated; by 2021, this figure is to be significantly increased to up to 35 million. The transition to plastic-free packaging is a process that involves all production sites equally. In addition to identifying the most commonly used plastic packaging, new, more sustainable material alternatives must be researched, tested and then implemented.
