We carefully consider the environmental impact of our operations, as demonstrated by our ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management Systems) certification. We prioritize material efficiency, repairability, and recyclability in every aspect of our product design. The robust construction of our products ensures long-lasting durability, while their compact size optimizes material usage.
Our products are designed for easy repair using standard tools, with spare parts readily available to minimize downtime. We also offer factory-refurbished products, emphasizing their repairability. When repairs are no longer viable, our products are designed to be nearly fully recyclable.
At Dynaset, recycling and waste reduction are key priorities at our factory. We have implemented dedicated recycling bins for various materials to ensure proper sorting and minimize landfill waste. Since January 2024, we have been tracking our landfill waste to monitor annual amounts and identify areas for improvement.
Our packaging materials have been recyclable and heat-treated for years to minimize environmental impact, and we are actively transitioning plastic protective covers for spare parts to cardboard by 2025. We also provide clear recycling guidelines to suppliers, requiring recyclable packaging that aligns with our on-site sorting capabilities.
To enhance recycling accuracy, we train our staff to better identify and sort different metal types. Additionally, we continuously review and update our training materials, ensuring all employees stay informed about recycling practices. By investing in better recycling systems and educating our workforce, we aim to reduce waste, conserve resources, and make our operations more sustainable.
Since June 2021, our factory has been partially powered by a solar plant that generates 100% sustainable energy. Covering 626 square meters, the solar panels supply approximately 15% of our total annual electricity consumption (as of 2024). During daytime operations, the factory utilizes the entire output. On non-operational days, any surplus energy is fed back into the grid, maximizing sustainability at every opportunity.
For end-users, a more sustainable machinery world means that one machine can perform multiple tasks on a job site due to the capabilities of hydraulic equipment. For instance, a hydraulic generator can replace a separate diesel generator on-site. In some cases, smaller machines can handle tasks typically reserved for larger ones. A prime example is the DYNASET HVB Hydraulic Vibra Pump, which enables smaller excavators and backhoes to perform demanding tasks which often require bigger machine. This flexibility reduces machine transport needs, increases machine utilization rates, and enables more demanding tasks with smaller equipment.
Our products also empower machine owners to extend their range of services year-round, particularly in countries with four distinct seasons. For example, the DYNASET SCU Surface Cleaning Unit and KPL High Pressure Street Washing Units enable loaders to perform diverse tasks across different seasons. In winter, these machines can be used for plowing; in spring, they’re ideal for street washing; in summer, they’re suited for cleaning market, festival areas and parking areas; and in fall, they help prepare equipment and spaces for winter storage. This versatility not only increases machine utilization but also reduces the need for separate, single-purpose equipment.
