From disposable to reusable

In Switzerland, Bobst Mex reduced its environmental impact by 11.5 tons of CO2 equivalent, by replacing single-use plastic cups with reusable containers.

This initiative represents a carbon saving equivalent to the exhaust gases emitted by a car traveling 83 500 km, or more than twice around the earth!

This success is due to the introduction into circulation of approximately 40 000 units of these new containers. Employees use the same cup several times before placing it in collectors managed by a company specializing in the rental of washable plastic dishes. In 2019, the Mex site consumed 480 000 single-use plastic cups, i.e. 260 000 in meeting and training rooms as well as for water dispensing fountains, and 220 000 for beverage machines. BOBST has set the goal of eliminating by 2021 all disposable cups in the catering facilities it provides and maintains at its Mex site.
