Braun Sustainable Design

Aider les ménages du monde entier à réduire leur impact sur la planète.

Une bonne conception peut être durable, malheureusement tout dans notre monde n'a pas cette caractéristique. Le gaspillage fait partie de notre vie quotidienne parce qu'à l'heure actuelle, il est facile de gaspiller. Si l'appareil ne fonctionne pas bien ou si la nourriture n'a pas l'air parfaite, le plus simple est de le jeter ou de le remplacer. Lorsque le vieillissement fait partie de la conception quotidienne, il fait également partie de la vie quotidienne. Nous savons que les décisions prises chaque jour dans le ménage de chacun peuvent changer le monde.

C'est pourquoi, chez Braun, nous facilitons vos décisions.

Deshalb ist es wichtig, bei der Produktentwicklung einen systematischen Ansatz zu verfolgen, der sich an den neuen Ökodesign-Leitlinien der Gruppe orientiert. Dieses Handbuch wurde in Zusammenarbeit mit Experten des Politecnico di Milano entwickelt und bildet die Grundlage für das strategische Wissen über eine neue Generation ökoeffizienter Geräte. Seit 2023 fallen 70 % unserer neu entwickelten Produkte unter diese Öko-Design-Richtlinie.

Minimierung

Der Energie- und Materialverbrauch, sowie die Toxizität und Schädlichkeit von Materialien sollen minimiert werden.

Optimierung

Die Lebensdauer von Produkten und Bauteilen, sowie die Materialerhaltung/Wiederverwendbarkeit sollen optimiert werden.

Erleichterung

We believe that good design can make lives better.

Back in the 70s Dieter Rams developed Braun’s memorable design language and defined 10 principles of good design that are still relevant today. While these principles have been a part of our DNA from the start, we’re always looking to the future.

Good Design is environmentally friendly.

We aim to use as little resources as possible and work on increasing the usage of materials in our products that are either recycled, recyclable, or both.

Moving forward, we are working on having at least 30%* of recycled plastic over the total plastic used in newly developed/upcoming products as of 2027 according to our commitment regarding material recycling.

Moreover, we have already saved more than 100 tons of paper through the partial digitalisation of our user instruction manuals for products globally sold in 2022. Also, there was no EPS (Synthesized Expanded Polystyrene) in the packaging of 95% of the Braun products sold in 2024.

*Excluded plastic for food contact application.

Good design is honest. We will never make promises about our environmental impact that we can't keep.

Good Design is useful.

Which is why all of ours help you get the most use out of the things you have, like turning wrinkly fruit and veg into delicious meals.

Or how another design principle would claim: Good design is thorough to the last detail.

Your food processor has been put to good use in my home for the last 50 years. I have nothing but praise for your company and would recommend you to others.

55 years ago, I received three Braun appliances as gifts when my daughter was born: a mixer, a juicer and a fruit press. I have been using all three appliances almost every day since 1960. So I would like to say thanks for the great quality and all the years of use without any repairs.

In 1998, we bought a Braun Combimax 700 food processor. My wife likes to cook as a hobby, so it was used almost every day. And not just once or twice, but sometimes for more than 2 or 3 hours – with breaks of course! After about 10 years, we asked ourselves how much longer it could last. So in 2008 we bought a new food processor – a Braun Combimax 700 too, of course – in order to be prepared for when the original stopped working. But it kept working perfectly. Then, on September 25th 2014 (!!!), it finally gave up the ghost after 16 and a half years! Overall calculation: 198 months x 25 days.
