Sustainability & environmental Protection
Ecology and economy are equally important to us. We are committed to responsibility for sustainable action and protecting our environment for future generations:

Sustainable business model: true circular economy
As a recycling company, we deal with the issue of sustainability every day by giving plastic waste a new life and returning it to the cycle as high-quality raw materials and replacing virgin plastic in various applications.
2
Act sustainably in the company
As a company, we rely on a certified energy management system, energy-efficient production and environmental protection.

We have been a driving force in the circular economy since 1958
Sustainable Business model
We close the recycling loop -
with up to 93% C02e savings compared to virgin material
Our owner family Draak has been involved in the circular economy since 1958 and today, more than ever, we consistently focus on recycling and high-quality reuse of raw materials:
​
-
RSH buys plastic waste and, with a lot of know-how and modern technology, gives the waste a second/third/fourth life in a new application
-
It is our daily goal to replace virgin plastic with high-quality regranulates & rCompounds
-
By returning recyclable materials to industry, RSH makes an important contribution to conserving and preserving natural resources and protecting our environment
-
Not only are high-quality raw materials preserved and recovered, but also very significant amounts of CO2e are saved, which reduces our customers' CO2e footprint
-
When examining our products as part of the CO2e balance, the entire life cycle is considered, from the transport of the plastic waste to be processed, through the recycling process, to the delivery of the goods to the customer
-
We produce our recyclates as energy-efficiently as possible and take care to protect the environment
-
With a variety of certificates, we ensure that our high standards for our daily work are confirmed annually by independent testing institutes
-
We are active in various organizations around the post-consumer and post-industrial circular economy. to advance raw material flows
CO2e accounting
Consider the complete life cycle
When examining our products as part of the CO2e balance, the entire life cycle is considered, from the transport of the plastic waste to be processed, through the recycling process, to the delivery of the goods to the customer.
The survey and evaluation takes even the smallest details into account and is available for every RSH product on request.
For your product - the right certificate!
