The IBCs and plastic drums of the Schütz Green Layer series are ideally suited as eco-friendly packaging for numerous applications. Customers benefit from a high recycled content, a low weight, and maximum safety. (Photo: Schütz)

The environment and the filling product in Schütz's Green Layer series continue to come into direct contact only with virgin material. The recyclate is used exclusively in the middle layer of the three-layer inner bottle. (Photo: Schütz)

With the Green Layer product range, Schütz increases the recycled content in the plastic by also using high-quality recycled material for the production of the inner containers. (Photo: Schütz)

With active resource conservation, the packaging of the Green Layer series convinces with the highest quality. One example is the ECOBULK MX GREEN LAYER with a full plastic pallet and a recycled plastic content of 68%. (Photo: Schütz)

Only if emptied packaging is returned by the user will there be sufficient quantities available for plastic recycling to supply customers with new recycled packaging. Schütz established the necessary infrastructure many years ago with the Schütz Ticket Service for worldwide collection and reconditioning of emptied containers. (Photo: Schütz)
