5 Create sustainability at every level We are continually working towards making sustainability an essential component of every phase of the product life cycle – throughout the entire value creation chain and, in particular, during use by our customers. Produce products that leave no traces It is our intention to develop the best products and services with the least possible impact on the environment – with the aim of them being completely CO₂ neutral. Avoid waste, we give old products new life Our aim is to create a circular value creation chain with net-zero waste, in which all the materials used in our machines are returned to the cycle at the end of a product's life. Saving our common home is a race against time. That's why we keep on setting ourselves ambitious targets and are continuously expanding our commitment. With these promises, we intend to continue along the path we have already embarked on: For our planet – the only home we have.
