rethink

recycle

minimise consumption

We minimise material and energy usage in all our own processes and activities, as well as in processes and activities serving our customers. We take responsibility for our entire value cycle.

choose sustainable materials
and energy

We choose materials and substances that do not cause ecological damage. We avoid any unnecessary natural resource exhaustion and replace unsustainable energy sources with environmentally sound ones.

recycle all residuals

We close material loops by reusing and recycling. Residuals not suitable to reuse or recycle are offered for energy recovery. Residual heat is a great resource to heat our buildings.

our sustainable conviction

At Aalberts integrated piping systems, we believe that sustainability is our responsibility towards our planet and future generations. Therefore, we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint through smart innovations, adopting circular business models, and optimizing energy usage in all locations and by all of our employees. 

Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities are more and more equipped with the latest energy-efficient technologies, and we continuously explore new ways to reduce waste, minimize pollution, and conserve resources. We firmly believe that sustainable growth is the key to long-term success, and we strive to inspire our customers, technology partners, and stakeholders to join us in this journey towards a cleaner, greener future.

ProFlow dynamic control valve
sustainable impact with the Pegler ProFlow PICV

Our Apollo ProFlow PICV (Pressure Independent Control Valve) is one of our many sustainable products, because it significantly lowers the use of materials and energy The well-balanced system it creates, gives a stable room temperature. This in turn gives the opportunity to lower the average temperature with 2ºC with the same comfort. With lower flow and resistance in the system, the pump energy use is lowered further. A well-balanced system often gives the opportunity to select a smaller pump thus substantially lowering energy and material usage.

our sustainable development goals

Our products enable clean water and sanitation as well as efficient and renewable energy.

Every year, we supply millions of meters of pipes and connections for the hygienic distribution of drinking and waste water. Our integrated piping systems help millions of households worldwide access safe water, sanitation and hygiene while promoting efficient water use and conservation. This is how our solutions support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 6.

Our integrated piping systems cover a broad spectrum of mission-critical building technology systems that make residential, commercial and industrial buildings more eco-friendly. These hydrogen ready systems have a very high temperature resistance and are suitable for use in solar installations. This is how our solutions support United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 7.

Our operations deliver innovative products, made in world class factories with a focus on circularity.

We track our innovation rate to continuously improve our offerings. Our new products control water and air more efficiently and allow for greater precision. Utilising digital systems we help our customers create efficient piping systems in their buildings. Our world-class factories are being upgraded to fit into the net-zero future. This is how our business supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 9.

We track key metrics to improve energy efficiency, reduce waste and water use, and increase recycling. Additionally, we are working with our supply chain to procure quality materials with high recycled content. By manufacturing durable products that last, we cut down on the need for frequent replacements. These efforts are how we support United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 12.

our environmental product declarations

Our environmental product declarations (EPDs) provide transparent and scientifically-based information on the environmental performance of a product across its lifecycle. This information can help our customers to make informed purchasing decisions, compare products based on their environmental impact and contribute to a sustainable future. These EPDs provide verified information on a product’s carbon footprint, water usage, waste generation, and other environmental impacts. By choosing products with EPDs, customers can ensure that their purchases have a minimal impact on the environment and adhere to their sustainability goals.

BREEAM distribution centre

Our high-quality distribution centre for Aalberts integrated piping systems Western Europe in Zeewolde (NL) has been rewarded with the BREEAM Very Good certificate. BREEAM stands for Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method and is the certification method for a sustainable built environment. With this method, projects can be assessed on integral sustainability. Aalberts integrated piping systems intends to have a substantial contribution to a sustainable environment. This is not only for our production resources, but we also help our customers to design and set up sustainable integrated piping systems.​
