Sustainability

Our planet matters.

Committing to a better world.

At Kovax, we are more than just a company—we are a community of forward-thinkers committed to sustainability. We don't just talk about change; we seek to integrate it into everything we do.

We use solar energy, design sustainable products, have environment-friendly facilities and minimise our emissions.

Working towards a greener future.

Solar energy

Both our office in the Netherlands and our main factory in Japan harness the power of the sun. By using solar energy, we drastically reduce carbon emissions and contribute to a cleaner, sustainable future.

Less waste

We design sustainable products that need to be replaced less often, creating less waste. For example, our abrasives feature anti-clogging technology, allowing you to use them more often and for longer. We also use interface pads instead of foam-based abrasives to reduce waste.

Environmentally friendly facilities

Our car park is equipped with an innovative CO2 extraction system that not only contributes to cleaner, healthier air, but also helps combat global warming. We have also installed multiple charging stations to encourage the use of electric vehicles and promote cleaner transport options.

By insulating our walls, we have improved the sustainability of our buildings, resulting in significant energy savings and lower costs.

Cleaner production

We use advanced technology to reduce harmful emissions from our production processes. Thanks to these efforts, we meet the strict standards of the PRTR Act and contribute to maintaining clean air.

Innovations for a healthier planet.

Our commitment to the environment is visible in every facet of our operations.

We act in ways to create a more sustainable and better shared future.

Action for a sustainable world.

We know that companies like ours play a big role in creating a sustainable future. That's why we apply green practices in our work, aiming to bring about positive change, not only in our sector but everywhere.

For us at Kovax, it's not just about delivering top-quality surface finishes. It is about making choices that are good for our world. Our commitment to being green touches every part of our work, from making products to how we run our business.

For example, to help our team choose cleaner transport options, there are several charging stations in our parking lot and we actively promote a cycling plan among our employees.

Building a sustainable workplace.

We are constantly working to make our workplace more environmentally friendly. That's why we strive to run an eco-friendly factory that uses renewable energy, demonstrating our commitment to a better environment. Every aspect of our work is influenced by our commitment to going green.

Your choice. Your process. Your environment.

Interface pads.

Our approach includes promoting products that offer environmental benefits, such as our interface pads. Designed not only to save materials, but also to reduce waste. Unlike traditional foam-based abrasives, our interface pads have an exceptionally long lifetime. They are reusable and efficient, ensuring that only the sandpaper needs to be replaced. This significantly reduces waste.

Did you know that 1 interface pad equals 500 foam-based abrasives? Join our effort to protect the planet - one pad at a time.
