BraunAbility Sustainability Improvements, 2018
Recycling Program
Not only does BraunAbility participate in a company-wide office recycling program, but we also look for ways to recycle the materials in our manufacturing facility.

We also work with our suppliers to reduce packaging waste, many of whom now offer returnable and recyclable materials and containers. BraunAbility not only responsibly disposes of any chemicals needed for our business, but also actively searches for more environmentally friendly products.
