Sustainability
HSTec Glass Systems and Croatia, as members of the European Union, are committed to making the EU climate-neutral by 2050.
As the European Council says, „shifting to a zero-emission society and economy is both an urgent challenge – given the increasing number of extreme weather events – and an opportunity to create new jobs and economic opportunities.
Green transition
The green transition is also a necessary step towards reducing the EU’s energy dependencies. Replacing fossil fuels with cleaner forms of energy will cut the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions and also make the EU less dependent.“
Digital transition
Digital solutions open up new opportunities for businesses, encourage the development of trustworthy technology, enable a vibrant and sustainable economy, help fight climate change, and achieve the green transition.
Digital technology is changing people’s lives. The EU’s digital strategy, along with HSTec Glass Systems, aims to make this transformation work for people and businesses, while helping to achieve its target of a climate-neutral Europe by 2050.
Glass
Sustainability is not just a commitment but a way of life. Our dedication to environmental responsibility is reflected at the core of our business, and we take pride in leading the industry and the planet toward a more sustainable future.
HSTec Glass Systems is committed to advancing the sustainability of the glass manufacturing industry through the numerous benefits of glass containers. No other packaging material can match the exceptional properties of glass, and their infinite recyclability reduces environmental impact, conserves energy, and promotes resource efficiency, creating a closed-loop system that leads to a significant reduction in carbon emissions, contributing to a lower overall carbon footprint.
Glass containers, known for their durability and inert, non-toxic properties, contribute to extended product lifespans and address concerns related to packaging waste. Their recyclability actively reduces landfill impact, aligning with responsible resource consumption.
The strategic choice of glass containers reinforces our commitment to sustainable packaging and manufacturing practices, shaping a greener future.
Cost Reduction
Implementing sustainability in industry can significantly reduce costs by improving energy efficiency, optimizing resource use and reducing waste, leading to lower utility bills and waste disposal costs.
Adherence to environmental standards also ensures international compliance that improves brand image, attracting environmentally conscious customers and fostering loyalty. Additionally, efficient supply chain practices and increased employee productivity further contribute to overall cost reduction for companies.
Energy
Carbon Footprint
Enrolling in monitoring carbon footprint is a crucial step towards environmental responsibility and sustainable practices. By systematically tracking and analyzing carbon emissions, we gain valuable insights into areas where we can reduce our environmental impact. This commitment to monitoring allows us to implement targeted strategies, such as optimizing energy efficiency and sourcing materials responsibly, ultimately contributing to a lower overall carbon footprint.
Solar Energy
Our upcoming production hall is poised to be a beacon of sustainability with the integration of solar panels into its design. This innovative approach aligns with our commitment to renewable energy and reducing our dependence on traditional power sources. The solar panels will harness clean and renewable energy from the sun, significantly reducing our carbon emissions associated with electricity consumption. This investment not only reflects our dedication to environmental stewardship but also positions us to be part of sustainable manufacturing practices within our industry.
Material Usage
Our Commitment to Metal
At HSTec Glass Systems, we have embraced a unique approach to sustainability by exclusively using metal in our industry. We understand the environmental impact of material choices, and by opting for metal, we ensure durability, longevity, and recyclability. Our commitment to using only metal materials is not just about the present; it’s an investment in a greener tomorrow.
Zero-Waste Polishing
Unlike conventional practices, we go beyond just using metal – we have perfected the art of metal polishing, leaving no room for waste. Through meticulous processes, we ensure that every piece undergoes expert polishing, enhancing its lifespan and aesthetic appeal. At HSTec Glass Systems, nothing is discarded; instead, everything is polished to perfection.
