SCHURTER: Green Line – Portfolio Expanded
December 17, 2024
SCHURTER significantly expands its portfolio of “Green Line” connectors. Because wherever you can reduce your CO₂ footprint without compromising on quality, you really should do so.
As with the launch of the first series of Green Line products, SCHURTER remains true to its policy of offering a version with plant-based housings for products that are already established on the market. This approach offers customers of these products the great advantage that no redesigns or recertifications are necessary when replacing the old connectors based on fossil raw materials. The SCHURTER Green Line is therefore a 1:1 replacement with all certifications.
New to the Green Line
The steadily expanding SCHURTER Green Line now includes the 4797 appliance outlet, the 4798 and 6080 appliance inlets and the 4782 rewireable connector.
Bio-based plastics
The environmentally friendly alternative to the fossil-based plastics commonly used today are plastics made from plant-based raw materials. Plant-based raw materials have a neutral CO₂ footprint over their entire life cycle, which leads to a significant reduction in overall CO₂ emissions. In addition, bio-based plastics often have a lower density than fossil-based plastics, which leads to lower material consumption.
Quality
In addition to CO₂ reduction, the bioplastic is also impressive in terms of safety and quality. It meets all technical and visual requirements. Products made from bioplastics impress with the same performance and service life as those made from fossil, crude oil-based plastic. Of course with all the international approvals needed.
