FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.
BENTLAGE GREEN

Climate neutral by 2030
The BENTLAGE Group has committed itself to becoming climate neutral by 2030.
This applies to SCOPE 1 and SCOPE 2 in accordance with the GHG Protocol.
This means that BENTLAGE records and evaluates direct and indirect emissions from purchased energy.
These emissions are converted into CO2 equivalents (CO2e) to obtain a clear key figure.
We receive support from the KLIMAINITIATIVE OWL (Climate Initiative OWL) of the Bielefeld Chamber of Industry and Commerce.
Companies from the East Westphalia region have joined forces there to achieve this ambitious goal together.
If you would like to join the climate initiative or find out more about it, please feel free to contact us.
We would be delighted to welcome you to one of the climate initiative meetings.

Measures implemented and planned
Sustainability in everyday life
At BENTLAGE, we have been consistently implementing measures to save energy and conserve resources for many years. These include:
• Efficient LED lighting
• Modern machinery
• Automated computer systems for energy optimization
• A security service with intelligent lighting control
• Verifiable and traceable waste separation with clear processes
• ... and much more
These steps are a matter of course for us.
Major project at the Bielefeld site: DruckKlima24
In order to produce the highest quality print products, the temperature and humidity in our production rooms must be kept constant. This is a very energy-intensive process.
With DruckKlima24, we have launched a comprehensive project to make our production more climate-friendly and efficient:
• Conversion from indirect to direct air humidification in the printing room
• Optimized air flow in the work areas through new source outlets
• Switch from conventional gas-powered heaters to heat pumps with multi-path technology
Objectives and progress
• The first two measures have already been successfully implemented. This has already led to enormous CO₂e savings.
• The entire project is scheduled to be fully implemented by 2027.
• To this end, we are investing both extensive working hours and considerable capital—for a sustainable future.
You can find regular updates on DruckKlima24 on our social media channels.

Material selection—for a small footprint with a big impact
Der Bereich Substitutionsprüfung wird durch unsere Experten der Forschung und Entwicklung verantwortet.
Begonnen hat die Substitutionsprüfung mit dem Wunsch nach umweltfreundlicheren Lösemitteln und Additiven für unsere Druckfarben und Lacke.
Der Trend geht damit zu Verfahren mit wasserbasierten, eco-solvent und UV-basierten Substituten.
Diese Farben und Lacke ermöglichen uns eine Produktion im Einklang mit REACH und RoHs.
Neben dem Druck ist auch das Material, auf das aufgetragen wird von Bedeutung.
Selbstverständlich haben wir pvc-freie Folien wie Polypropylen, Papier, Polycarbonat und viele mehr in unserem Angebot.
Gerne finden wir mit Ihnen die Lösung für ein Produkt das Jahre hält und Wirkung zeigt.

logically green
Our logistics optimize routes and order sizes, minimize empty runs, and can also provide paperless document exchange via EDI.
We focus on efficient packaging with customized package and pallet sizes.
This saves space and reduces transport.
Bicycle couriers offer us an environmentally friendly alternative for local delivery.
Paperless systems simplify processes and reduce our ecological footprint.
