Circular Economy

We work to improve the environmental performance of our machines, for example by focusing on resource efficiency and product lifetime extension.

Circular solutions for sustainable performance

Our approach includes the development of circular solutions for selected products and services. These solutions are designed to support durability and efficient use of resources over time.

Examples of circular practices include:

  • Reuse of certain machine components where technically feasible
  • Activities related to recycling, retrofitting, refurbishing, and repair 
  • Design approaches aimed at reducing material use and facilitating maintenance

These measures are intended to support reduced resource consumption during the product lifecycle. The extent of potential environmental benefits depends on product type, application, and operating conditions.

Our activities

united-machining-we-reuse

We Reuse

We reuse selected machine components where technically feasible. This approach is intended to extend component lifetime and reduce the consumption of raw materials.

united-machining-we-rethink

We Rethink

We apply design approaches to improve machine performance and resource efficiency. Our internal evaluation tools consider aspects such as material use and energy consumption during development.

united-machining-wire-circularity

We Recycle

We support the recycling of machines and components through appropriate handling processes, in accordance with applicable regulations. This contributes to the recovery of materials and the reduction of waste.

united-machining-we-retrofit

We Retrofit

We offer retrofit solutions to upgrade existing machines with newer technologies. These upgrades are designed to improve performance and may contribute to improved energy efficiency depending on configuration and use.

united-machining-we-refurbish

We Refurbish

We provide refurbishing services to restore machines to defined performance standards. This includes inspection, repair, and replacement of components where needed.

united-machining-we-repair

We Repair

We offer repair services for specific components, either on-site or at our facilities. These services support the continued operation and maintenance of machines over time.
