Our eco-products
The producer carries responsibility for recycling, but we can help meet that responsibility as your logistics partner. Since we deliver new machines to end customers, we are able to collect old machines at the same time. We can also handle all the transport documentation for recycling.
Recycling
Logistics and transportation are a key aspect of recycling. As a transporter and logistics partner for a number of leading companies in the office, IT and electronics industries, we have accrued considerable expertise in recycling.
We have seen just how well our model of transporting unpacked machines and providing assistance with installation works. We are licensed to transport and store hazardous waste and we rarely need to use pallets and transport cages like so many others.
Certification of landfill and sorted waste
Since the majority of the goods MTAB transports are unpacked and we also take care of any unpacking, large quantities of packaging material are generated and have to be dealt with. MTAB therefore has an agreement with Ragn-Sells on sorting packaging and electronic waste.
At our terminals we have set up centres to collect different groups of sorted waste, including timber, electronics, batteries, cardboard and plastic. The system meets the requirements of our customers under their own ISO 14001 certification and can be used in environmental reporting. MTAB provides certification of landfill and sorted waste.
Our environmental work
When MTAB built its head office and warehouse in Bromma in 1995, environmental considerations were top of the agenda. MTAB opted for eco-friendly solutions when choosing both energy source and materials, which at the time was unusual when constructing industrial buildings.
MTAB’s high-security warehouse was built to combine both environmental considerations and modern rational stock management. Under the roof of the 6,400 m2, architect-designed building, largely made of recycled materials, there are a number of special functions.
