Environmentally friendly solutions in particle foam save energy and raw materials:
- Thermal insulation reduces energy consumption
- Moulded parts in EPP make vehicles lighter and reduce energy consumption
- Intelligent packaging reduces the risk of waste due to transport damage
- EPP components in ventilation units ensure heat recovery in buildings

LEMAHIEU recycles your used foam products.
As a VALIPAC operator, we also grant our customers certificates for the recycling of the returned packaging waste, entitling them to recycling premiums.

Limitation of the use of ground and tap water.
Rainwater is buffered in a large reservoir of more than 1.000.000 litres and used in the production process.
The process water is reused in a closed circuit with a minimum of waste water.
