sustainable spirit
rethink
we minimise material and energy usage in all our own processes and activities, as well as in processes and activities serving our customers. We take responsibility for our entire value cycle
reduce
choosing materials and substances that don’t cause ecological damage is essential. We avoid any unnecessary natural resource exhaustion and replace unsustainable energy sources with environmentally sound ones.
recycle
we close material loops by reusing and recycling. Residuals not suitable to reuse or recycle are offered for energy recovery. Residual heat is a great resource to heat our buildings
minimise consumption
choose sustainable materials and energy
recycle all residuals
our sustainable conviction
We believe there is no magic technology or machine that will save the planet overnight. But there are many inventions being made or have yet to be imagined, that can cut down waste, introduce efficiencies, and contribute to a greener society. At Aalberts integrated piping systems, that’s music to our ears, because that’s what we do.
Aalberts integrated piping systems takes care of our planet and adjusts its working methods and production methods in such a way that the impact on our planet is kept as low as possible. For instance, we reuse waste and other materials during our production processes.
Our production locations are generally close to our customers, so that the transport movements of our products remain at an acceptable level. Our buildings also meet the requirements for sustainable buildings, our location in Zeewolde (the Netherlands) for example has received the BREEAM Good certificate. Furthermore, various business locations have been equipped with solar collectors for the generation of sustainable energy.
our sustainable stories
BREEAM distribution centre
Our high-quality distribution centre for Aalberts integrated piping systems Western Europe in Zeewolde (NL) has been rewarded with the BREEAM Very Good certificate.
decrease of scrap
Reducing and reusing the materials used in our production is one of the key elements in sustainable strategy.
decrease of packaging materials
The introduction of our new packaging line also leads to a reduction in packaging materials used.
sustainable impact with the VSH XPress FullFlow valve
The VSH XPress FullFlow valve is lighter than its predecessor, with an almost 30% reduction in raw materials used. Yet its improved flow performance results in a 60% drop in energy requirements, which creates a saving of 0.8 kg of CO2 per valve per year. The full flow is cavity free, which means that they are continuously flushed with water. This prevents the buildup of stagnant water or bacteria, leading to cleaner and more hygienic distribution.
