Environmentally green, even in the office.<br />
Bürkle has put the paperless office into practice. With<br />
our EASY software, the market lead in the paper less<br />
office sector, all files are scanned at Bürkle in document<br />
quality. In this way the majority of our mail is<br />
drawn up and dispatched electronically.<br />
} Order confirmations for more than 20,000 orders<br />
per year are sent automatically by fax.<br />
} Most invoices are included in the package with<br />
the goods; this saves envelopes and reduces<br />
postal charges.<br />
The Bürkle Catalog is also following this trend toward<br />
paperless media. It is available in digital form on the<br />
Internet.<br />
Packaging isn’t peanuts for us.<br />
Less packaging – more environmental protection.<br />
By logical orientation toward environmentally-friendly<br />
dispatch Bürkle not only reduces the amount of packaging<br />
material, but also saves its customers from<br />
additional costs.<br />
} For dispatching goods we use only cardboard<br />
boxes with recycling markings.<br />
} Boxes in good condition are reused.<br />
} Customer’s dispatch orders are collected to reduce<br />
packaging material.<br />
} No superfluous packaging material is used.<br />
Quality standards can be met. Or exceeded.<br />
Our aim is not just to comply with rules and regulations<br />
but, wherever possible, to be better than their<br />
requirements.<br />
This applies not only to our quality management system<br />
as per DIN EN ISO 9001:2000, which we introduced<br />
no less than 10 years ago and which covers all<br />
processes throughout the company.<br />
This ambitious target also applies to environmental<br />
protection.<br />
As we only process plastics and do not produce them<br />
ourselves, we are a company with an inherently very<br />
low impact on the environment. We produce neither<br />
toxic substances nor do we use hazardous chemicals.<br />
Only the hydraulic oil used for operating our plastic<br />
processing machines is replaced after about three<br />
years by an authorized recycling company.<br />
Ahead of our time in environmental protection.<br />
We don’t wait until stricter new environmental laws<br />
come into force, but take action as soon as EU Directives<br />
are published. For example, one EU Directive<br />
states that lead, a toxic substance, should be avoided.<br />
Bürkle has implemented this directive in a consistent<br />
manner. Today, for example, our immersion bottles<br />
are manufactured without using any lead at all.<br />
Using our own ideas to promote innovation.<br />
At Bürkle economic viability and environmental protection<br />
are mutually compatible. This is why we foster<br />
the environmental consciousness of our employees<br />
who, with their innovative ideas and their concrete<br />
realization, make a contribution to reducing environmental<br />
pollution or preventing it right from the start.<br />
