This is how resource conservation looks at WINZKI

Sustainability and recyclability are two words that are very important to us. Throwing away something that can still serve a purpose is out of the question. That’s why we’ve thought about what we can do with all the things that wander across our tables during the production of hörbert.

Today we want to introduce you to two possibilities in this article!

Felt

It’s no surprise that not 100% of the material from our felt bag sewing kits makes its way as a cozy cover for the hörbert during the laser cutting process. But what do we do with the colorful “leftovers”? Dispose of them? Of course, that’s not an option for us!

Since the introduction of not only the “original hörbert” with a German memory card, but also the versions with international content, with or without auto-off feature, and soon optionally with a Bluetooth module, we use the different colors to mark our hörbert variants during production. This ensures that the right hörbert safely makes its way to the customer! This way, we can always tell from the outside exactly what’s inside the case, and our production becomes a little more colorful.

Stick Discs

We are also cautious with our wood usage. The trained eye of our quality control only allows hörberts with flawless cases to find a new home. However, we obviously don’t throw away hörberts with cases that have minor visual flaws. Recently, there is a factory outlet in Frickenhausen where you can purchase these B-stock hörberts at a discounted price.

What do we do with the discs that have to give way to make room for the speaker during laser cutting? Naturally, with so many creative minds, it didn’t take long for our stick discs to be created from them. A round disc can quickly become a butterfly, a boat, or thanks to the creative disc, anything else that comes to mind. Training fine motor skills while having fun – there’s hardly a better way to use such a reject disc, right?
