What a sustainable plastic drum program should be: not a one-way street but a complete eco-cycle.

For MAUSER it is obvious that resources are not endless and that they must be used as efficiently as possible. This does not only mean reduction, but reuse and recycling as well. As a global market leader, we take our environmental and social respon-sibility seriously. At the same time, we know that our economic performance – and that of all of our clients – is the key to success.

We thus consider it logical that not only a company but also a company’s products and services must be sustainable. Our sustainability philosophy is built on our comprehensive ECO-CYCLE concept – which follows 5 principles:

RENEW – frontrunner in investigating materials for the future

REDUCE – minimize raw material use, energy consumption and environmental impact

RECOLLECT – worldwide recollection system for industrial packaging

REUSE – reconditioned packaging as a high-quality, low environmental impact solution

RECYCLE – closing the cycle, giving materials new life

For us, sustainability in industrial packaging is not about selling containers, but about providing a customized product and service program. For MAUSER plastic drums, this means that we not only pick them up at your place of business, we also thoroughly clean, test and inspect them as well as prepare them for their next use. Drums that can no longer be used are shredded, cleaned and processed into high-quality plastic granulate. We then use this material for manufacturing new plastic drums and IBCs.

At MAUSER, National Container Group (NCG) is responsible for all recollection and reconditioning activities.

The MAUSER success story at a glance.

�1896: Dr. Alfons Mauser started manufacturing iron fences out of scrap steel strips from the local watch-making industry. Material recycling at its best – even if the word had not been invented yet.

�1898 – 1914: Responding to new logistical needs created by industrialization, MAUSER introduced the first groundbreaking packaging concepts for transporting glass carboys with acids, i.e. dangerous goods.

�1903: MAUSER pioneered the metal drum as an innovation which is generally regarded as the beginning of industrial packaging. MAUSER’s aniline drum was a further worldwide success that was used around the globe until the end of the 1960s.

�1950s & 1960s: New materials offered new oppor-tunities. MAUSER started looking into plastics for industrial packaging and soon came up with innovative plastic open head and tight head drums, once again setting industry standards.

�1967: MAUSER presented the first plastic open top drums; eight years later (1975), this was the standard open top drum.

�1984: MAUSER introduced its first 1000 l multi-trip container.

�1990: With development of the L-Ring, MAUSER succeeded in revolutionizing plastic drum draining systems.

�1991: Use of recycled materials became a focus within MAUSER. We introduced the first 1000 l composite IBC with a pallet made from recycled plastics.

�1994: By implementing the MAUSER Euro-Return-Service for recollection and reuse of composite IBCs, we positioned ourselves as the industry’s ecological frontrunner.

�1997: MAUSER developed the SVR concept and now supports its customers with returnable plastic drums.

�2004: Acquisition of National Container Group (NCG), making MAUSER a full-service provider instead of “solely” a manufacturer.

� 2007: MAUSER presented the V-Press® plastic drum.

The MAUSER tradition has always been

to invent packaging concepts that com-

bine superior security, ecology, economy

and prosperity – for both today’s and

tomorrow’s world.
