11 Environmental protection
Environmental protection is a fundamental cor-
porate strategy of the Bosch Group.
The quality of our products, their economy and
environmental safety are all of equal importance
to us and all environmental protection legislation
and regulations are strictly observed.
We use the best possible technology and materi-
als for protecting the environment taking account
of economic considerations.
Packaging
Where packaging is concerned, we participate in
country-specific recycling processes that ensure
optimum recycling.
All packaging materials are environmentally com-
patible and can be reused.
Old appliances
Used appliances contain materials that should be
recycled.
The components are easy to separate and the
plastics carry identification markings. This allows
the sorting out of the various assemblies for
appropriate recycling or disposal.
