Since the publication of MAUSER’s first sustainability report in 2009, the company’s products and services and the reporting the company’s sustainability initiatives have always centered around the life-cycle management of industrial packaging. With the concept of a ‘Circular Economy’ gaining more and more traction, this approach has become more prominent than ever.

In line with the company’s comprehensive sustainability program and its EcoCycle® approach on sustainability-oriented full cycle services the report “From linear to circular – MAUSER Sustainability Report 2015/2016” focuses on the topics MAUSER Group sees as priority for the company and its clients in terms of more sustainable industrial packaging.

• Efficient use of raw materials for packaging solutions not compromising on quality and transport safety.
• Products and services that drive the use of packaging and packaging materials from linear to circular.
• Responsible operations fully complying with regulatory requirements and fulfilling the highest environmental and work safety standards.
• Motivated employees working under fair and respectful work conditions as a team globally.
• An open and reliable relationship and exchange with customers and partners around the world.

In the spirit of open, comparable and transparent communication the report has been prepared in accordance with the guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI-G4). The 32 page report successfully completed the GRI Materiality Disclosure Service to be in accordance with the guidelines “Core” option.
