Protecting the environment is a primary objective of Daimler AG. This involves the careful utilisation of natural resources. Our aim therefore, is to recycle more and waste less.
We think the whole lifecycle through from start to finish.
Even at the development stage, we attach great importance to creating vehicle designs which use environment-friendly and recyclable materials, for example: uniform materials for bumpers and underbody trim panelling. These can be easily dismantled and segregated to provide high quality reusable materials.
We also use many renewable raw materials in our vehicles, such as coconut fibre, sisal or recyclate. The advantages are obvious: they protect the environment and are recyclable. In the Daimler AG Environmental Protection Guidelines, we commit ourselves to continually improving the environmental compatibility of our products. We work continuously to fulfil this commitment - to optimise the environmental performance of our vehicles.
