The recycling economy from the perspective of CAG Holding
:
Aware of our responsibility and with a long-term outlook

We at CAG take our responsibility seriously – for ourselves, for our company and the regions in which we operate.
We don’t just work to ensure we continuously improve as a company: we also want to improve living standards in the regions in which we operate. As a privately managed company, we take a long-term view of the market and the market segments we want to exploit. This includes in particular the recycling economy, through which our raw materials can frequently be reused and recycled – as shown by our use of aluminium, glass and biofuel production, among other things.
