Take action now – paint sustainably

It’s the stark reality in the face of climate change, increased global environmental protection requirements, rising energy and material costs, and increased consumer awareness. The paint shop is one  area of automotive production that uses the most energy. Until now, the painting process accounted for nearly half of CO₂ emissions because of the complex steps required for car bodies. Technically, it is already possible to operate a paint shop largely CO₂-neutral, for example, by electrifying systems and switching from gas to green electricity. But other adjustments can make new and existing paint shops more sustainable.
