Our Environmentally Friendly Production Philosophy
From the beginning sustainability has been at the core of our values. Our modern and energy-efficient technology in plant and machine production reflects our commitment to environmentally conscious practices. We are offering FSC-certified print items, but we also think ahead in terms of the actual vinyl production.
As part of our sustainable production strategy, production waste is carefully collected and subjected to a special recycling process. The resulting granulate is not only a component in our regular production, but it is also used in our visually stunning effect vinyl records, e.g. as a splatter effect. It also forms the basis for our 100% recycled vinyl records.
As of October 2023 we take our ongoing commitment to an environmentally friendly production one step further. With Beyond Vinyl we are offering a completely sustainable vinyl record which is made from organic PVC. Our innovative brand utilizes bio-based PVC, replacing petroleum with non-fossil resources.
We are calling upon our labels and partners to take advantage of our two brands in sustainable vinyl production:
1. Recycled records.
It goes in circles with us.
+ Entirely made from the granulate obtained from our own production waste
+ Records are acoustically almost equivalent to those pressed from fresh granulate
+ Black recycled records made from 100% recycled black PVC
+ Reduces PVC waste
+ Colored records made from 100% recycled PVC —
each colored record is a unique marbled record made from a recycled PVC color-mix.
A burst of color with environmental awareness:
Discover the colorful diversity of musical expressions with our colored records.
