For many years, Hansa has consistently pursued pro-ecological policy.
Concern for the environment is as important for us as the use of modern technology.
The development of technology has enabled our factories to become more environmentally
friendly – we use less and less water, electricity and less waste water and solid waste is gener-
ated during production.
A lot of attention is paid to materials used in production. We strive to use only those that do not
contain harmful substances and make recycling and safe disposal possible after use.
