Recycling at EnOcean: Taking Responsibility for a Greener Future

Sustainability is a core part of EnOcean’s company philosophy. As a technology leader in battery-free and wireless sensor solutions, we take responsibility not only for innovation but also for the entire lifecycle of our products — including their packaging and disposal.

Our packaging recycling concept plays a key role in this approach. It ensures that our packaging not only protects products during shipping and storage but also supports environmentally responsible recycling. We use recyclable materials and modular designs that make separation easier, reduce packaging waste, and help conserve resources.

Sustainability in Action: The Return Program for Module Trays

At the heart of our recycling initiative is the return system for EnOcean module trays. Customers can send back used original trays marked with the “EnOcean” embossing to our recycling partner Spezi-Pack Karl Spethmann GmbH Dresden.

To ensure smooth processing, trays must be free from oil or adhesive residues and neatly packed in a box labeled “for recycling.” Customers cover the shipping costs — we take care of the recycling. This simple process allows our partners to actively contribute to resource efficiency and circular material use.

Quality, Responsibility, Future: Closing the Loop Together

Our packaging strategy is part of a comprehensive quality and environmental management system that meets international standards. We don’t just comply with current regulations — we anticipate future EU and global requirements. Certified systems ensure that environmental responsibility is not only a promise, but part of how we work every day.

We invite our partners, customers, and users to join us in supporting this recycling program. Together, we can keep materials in circulation and minimize waste. Whether through returning module trays or ensuring proper component recycling — every action counts on the path toward more sustainable technology.
