We have set ourselves the goal of ensuring that all key product groups at LAPP have a product carbon footprint. Purchasing copper with lower CO₂ values is also being explored.
One building block for reducing the carbon footprint is the use of bio-based plastics. The ETHERLINE® FD P Cat.5e for Industrial Ethernet, for example, is the first Ethernet cable with a bio-based sheathing. The carbon footprint of this special outer shell is 24% lower than that of a conventional outer shell based exclusively on fossil raw materials. Further information can be found here.
Focus on sustainable industries
We are also focussing our portfolio on sustainable industries. Solar and wind energy help us to overcome the challenges relating to climate change. LAPP has taken on a leading role in this field in recent years and offers innovative solutions to cope with the energy transition.
The use of photovoltaic systems has been an important pillar of renewable energy for many years now. We are constantly developing our products and solutions to ensure longer durability and robustness as well as extreme flexibility. Even in wind energy, the fastest growing market among renewable energies, LAPP meets the complex requirements and specific guidelines with extensive development and production experience spanning several decades.
In the field of electromobility, LAPP impresses with innovative solutions, offering infrastructure operators, charging station and vehicle manufacturers user-friendly charging cables for charging on the public grid and at household or industrial sockets. We want to make electric mobility accessible to everyone.
In the huge growth market of rail transport, LAPP ensures safety and reliability with an extensive portfolio of system solutions that are specially tested and certified for railway technology.
