In order to qualify for the Autoneum Blue label, components must be based on materials that consist of at least 30% recycled PET that was collected from coastal areas within a 50-kilometer range of the water. These credentials mean the products make an important contribution to preventing plastic pollution in the oceans. In addition, the process of collecting the PET bottles must be socially respon-sible and comply with human rights, and traceable procurement of the bottle flakes must be guaran-teed. Autoneum Blue thus complements the Company's strategic target to continuously reduce water consumption in all areas of its operations with an additional focus on preventing plastic pollution of the oceans, thereby making a further important contribution to preserving one of the world's most important natural resources.
