This day reminds us how important it is to protect our natural environment and draws global attention to the importance of environmental protection, biodiversity and the sustainable use of natural resources.
We at AVISTA OIL have been rescuing used oil from improper handling for 74 years in order to recycle it. As a pioneer in the industry, we have a DEKRA-certified process, which we call AVIeCO2, that has been proven to emit up to 90% less greenhouse gases than the production of base oil from primary refining. This concept also enables us to protect and preserve our planet's natural resources. Since the introduction of the patented ESR technologies at our Dollbergen site in 2005, more than 82 million tons less crude oil have had to be extracted.
We are therefore protecting our environment by conserving natural resources in the long term through the professional recycling of waste, thereby saving a large amount of greenhouse gas emissions compared to primary refining.
Nature conservation is not a luxury, but a necessity. Each of us can do something - whether through conscious consumption, less plastic, the preservation of green spaces or by getting involved in local environmental projects. Even small steps can make a big difference.
So let's all take responsibility together - for our planet and for future generations!
