Ecological sustainability

As a result of their positive characteristics geosynthetics make an active contribution towards ecological and economic construction and have become a significant building material in all branches of geotechnical engineering.
HUESKER geosynthetics are produced with highly efficient manufacturing plant. With due consideration of the weaving process, production helps to preserve the environment because it is especially light on resources. No water whatsoever is necessary for the manufacturing process. The power consumption for the looms and coating facilities as well as the gas consumption are comparatively low.The comparatively short transportation routes have a direct positive effect on the total CO2 emissions of the supply chain.
Waste treatment at HUESKER takes place according to the basic principles of avoidance, reduction and utilisation. A reduction in the amount of waste has both ecological and economic advantages and is therefore the main priority of the company.
