Dear Readers
At KARL BUBENHOFER AG, sustainability is more than just a buzzword—it is an integral part of our thinking and actions. We’ll show you how we take responsibility: for our products, for the environment, and for future generations.
From Brochure to Website
Sustainable action often begins with a small, conscious step.That is why we have decided not to print this information on glossy paper, but to make it available exclusively in digital form as a PDF.
This saves a total of around 1.3 tons CO2 equivalents.1 The calculation is based on a comparison with a printed brochure in A4 format:
- 16 pages
- Glossy cover 170 g/m² (4 pages)
- Inner pages: silk-matte 100 g/m² (12 pages)
- Print run: 5,000 copies
- Perfect binding
A small contribution
The savings are comparable to the gasoline burned during a car trip of approximately 8,824 kilometers.2,3 A small contribution? Perhaps. But many small contributions add up to something big – and that’s what matters to us.
We hope you find this an exciting and inspiring read.
