of the intermediates we need.
Key intermediates are made in European chemical clusters.
This allows a substantial share of the supply chain to be based
in Europe and makes production in Germany possible.

BE COMPETITIVE?
YES.
THROUGH
SUSTAINABILITY.
AT BISON, SUSTAINABILITY IS A STRATEGIC DRIVER OF COMPETITIVE PRODUCTION IN GERMANY
USING EUROPEAN RAW MATERIALS, RATHER THAN AN AFTERTHOUGHT. OUR UNDERSTANDING OF
SUSTAINABILITY GOES BEYOND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS: IT COMBINES ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACT WITH ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY AND A RESILIENT VALUE CHAIN.
THE KEY FACTORS.
short supply chains, our own plant technology and automation create the foundation for producing
nitrile disposable gloves competitively in Germany.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Reducing energy
demand within
production.
RESOURCE CIRCULARITY
Using resources efficiently
and reusing them within
our processes.
SHORT SUPPLY CHAINS
Reducing transport distances
and dependencies.
TECHNOLOGY &
AUTOMATION
Enabling close process control
and efficient
production operations.
ECONOMICALLY SOUND.
ENVIRONMENTALLY EFFECTIVE.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
– Higher plant availability
– Lower COâ‚‚ emissions
HEAT RECOVERY
– Faster payback
– Reduced emissions
WATER CIRCULATION
– Greater process stability
– Less wastewater
EUROPEAN RAW MATERIALS
– Fewer dependencies
– Greater supply security
which can in turn reduce the environmental impact of production.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
SUPPLY SECURITY
Greater planning certainty through
short delivery routes, German
production and less dependence
on overseas suppliers.
RESILIENCE
Less exposure to global supply
chain disruption and more reliable
supply, even in challenging
market conditions.
TRANSPARENCY
Traceable production and
shorter value chains.
SUSTAINABILITY
Environmental and economic
benefits: more efficient processes,
shorter delivery routes and a
future-ready sourcing strategy.
