SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION – A PROFITABLE BUSINESS CASE // "Sustainability" is more than a buzzword – it's shaping industries and driving real change. 🌍 Rising energy and raw material prices are pushing companies to adopt more sustainable practices, not just for environmental reasons, but because it makes financial sense. Starting in 2025, certain listed companies in the EU will be required to report on their sustainability efforts, with more companies soon to follow. But what’s the real business case? Sustainable practices often lead to significant cost savings. For instance, switching from spot welding to clinching in production can reduce CO2 emissions by 86%, with financial payback in just 2.7 years. Curious about how your company can turn sustainability into a profitable advantage? Discover actionable insights and learn how our experts at EDAG Production Solutions are transforming challenges into opportunities. ➡️ Read more in our latest blog post: https://lnkd.in/dKUve9h5
