Circular economy

Resource use

The principle of the circular economy aims to use resources responsibly and create material cycles that are as closed as possible. Our approach to the circular economy follows the principle of the 6 Rs of sustainability: Rethink, Refuse, Reduce, Repair, Reuse, Recycle.

Our circular economy policy, which applies to the entire SMA Group, addresses topics such as material efficiency, service life, the use of recycled materials, substances of very high concern (SVHC), the repair and reuse of components, and waste management throughout the product life cycle.

Further information can be found in the Group Sustainability Statement published in the Annual Report.
