Sustainability

The reason ReMat Group was founded was a conviction that recycled plastic raw material is a valuable resource - too valuable not to take advantage of. Every day we help our customers choose materials with regard to efficient resource use. The fact that our basic idea is recycling is not enough, we want to do more.

Sustainability in three parts

For us, sustainability is a matter of holistic integration. To make a broad impact, we organize our efforts under ESG into three pillars: environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and corporate governance.

we conduct our sustainability work in alignment with the group’s goals and ambitions.
