Hanger recycling
DTL has been offering manufacturers and commercial brands a clothes hanger recycling service for many years. Reusable black hangers and transparent multiuse hangers (SKRS system) are put straight back into circulation. We ensure the eco-friendly handling of recyclable materials.
Working in cooperation with manufacturers and partners in the recycling industry, we are able to recirculate or make further use of some 3.5 million clothes hangers every year. This delivers raw material savings of 120 to 140 metric tons per year.
Foil material recycling
As far back as 1996, DTL began to cooperate with manufacturers, the University of Applied Sciences in Osnabrück (Germany) and the German Federal Foundation for the Environment (DBU) on a pilot project involving the recycling of foil materials used for transport purposes.
The procedure allows all mixed foil materials used for textile shipping purposes to be recycled directly into new material. The amounts being processed have become so great that foil recycling is now handled by an independent partner organisation. The result: The environment is relieved of having to deal with some 48,000 cubic metres of foil material annually.
