The starting point
Cleaning products manufacturer Sonett OHG in Deggenhausen places great value on sustainable conduct – including in the packaging of its products.
The solution
A wood-plastic composite is used for the Bio-Bubbles soap bubbles: the wood components are bound in a polyethylene matrix. The entire packaging is produced by Semadeni using the injection moulding process.
The outcome
Using the wood-plastic composite reduces the share of petrochemical plastics. The Semadeni Industry Group thereby enabled Sonett OHG to realise this product.
