Circular economy

Climate management

OTTO would like to make its contribution towards environmental and climate protection by using resources responsibly and efficiently and making all relevant corporate processes sustainable.

  • Introduction of the OTTO climate protection strategy to support the “Climate Neutrality in Bavaria 2040” target
  • Implementation of environmental life cycle assessments, taking the corporate carbon footprint (CCP) and the product carbon footprint (PCP) along the entire value-added chain into consideration.
  • Climate management as a building block for more sustainability, which benefits our customers, business partners and employees.
  • Goal-oriented alignment of investments, also in the area of climate management.

Products & Services

We generate ideas for new products and develop innovative solutions according to our markets’ requirements. In order to atchieve this we consistently take advantage of  the scientific / technical progress and performance capability of our suppliers.

  • Development of customer solutions for special tasks with a wide range of special products
  • Implementation of sustainable development and production processes as well as for products with a high degree of sustainability
  • Strong focus on excellent customer support to be able to guarantee our high product quality when used by processors.
  • OTTO products meet high requirements for the occupational health and safety of the processors, users, dealers, as well as for the (residential) health of users of the building

Circular economy

The life cycle of products and packaging, the dissociation of economic growth from the consumption of finite resources, but also the recycling or reuse of waste materials from production are core elements of a sustainable value-added chain.

  • Using recycled packaging material (where possible)
  • Strict separation of non-recyclable waste
  • Implementation of innovative process solutions for material flows
  • Sustainable shaping of the circular economy in downstream value-added chain by investing in the development of innovative product solutions together with business partners.
