7 Material savings
1. Thin-wall technology
Over the last few years, thin-wall technology has been successfully implemented in phone 
cases. During this time, wall thicknesses have been reduced from 2.5 mm to 2.3 mm and 
now average about 1.8 - 2 mm. This corresponds to granulate savings of more than 20 %, 
without sacrificing mechanical stability or robustness. 
2. Packaging optimisation
The size and weight of the packaging has been optimised to be in accordance with  
shipping standards. 
The primary aim of this is to reduce transportation costs for the entire product portfolio.
The basic purpose of primary packaging is to protect the product. Drop and continuous 
shock testing (simulating transportation) are required. We use LD-PE film to protect the 
surfaces of certain parts, as well as 100 % recycled corrugated cardboard as packing  
material. Film usually accounts for around 4 % of the total packaging. Both the film and 
cardboard can be recycled.
