An overview of our initiatives and key figures

Sustainability at Bette

Sustainability is important to us. And has been for over 70 years: Bette opted for the natural materials glass and steel as early as 1952. Careful use of natural resources is close to our hearts. We see this as an ongoing task and try to get a little better every day. No matter whether we invest in green steel, invent a  waste cover made of recycled material or always ensuring our trucks drive fully loaded: Sustainability is our programme - and not just a fashionable buzzword.

*We source steel from a supplier that has a proven track record of investing in lower-emission manufacturing processes and is certified to this effect. The certificates provided attest to these investments. They do not mean that the steel is produced without any emissions.

Green steel - and we've been there from the start

But what is green steel anyway? And why is the transformation of the steel industry so important to us? How do you benefit from our green products? We answer these and other questions here.

Green steel

Our products? Last quite a long time.

From smartphones to toasters - many things we use every day don't last much longer than the prescribed warranty period of 2 years. With Bette, it's different.

Long service life

From waste covers to overspray: we recycle with good ideas.

We are constantly working to reduce our material consumption. And are breaking new ground in the process. See for yourself!

Our material? Clean, of course!

A 100% recyclable product without chemical additives - that is the power of glass and steel, the materials we have been working with since 1952.

Our resource and energy management? Simply clever!

Why does a Bette truck delivering bath products drive back loaded with crates of mineral water? Because we also rely on efficient logistics.
