Karlsruhe, Germany – Robust sales packaging provides optimum protection for the high-quality Bosch Aerotwin wipers, safeguarding them from damage during transport and storage. Inside the outer carton, the windshield wipers are secured in a tray to protect the delicate wiper lip. This tray, which was previously made of PET plastic, is now made of a cellulose fiber-based material that is comparable to cardboard and comes from sustainably managed forests. As a result, all the packaging for the Aerotwin windshield wipers is environmentally friendly and can go into paper recycling. The packaging has been printed with PAP 21, a recycling code that indicates it comprises non-corrugated paperboard made from wood fibers. Taking Aerotwin production for 2023 as a basis, the change to environmentally friendly packaging saves more than 350 tons of plastic a year.
