ContiTech's new
sustainability portal provides
information about its commitment to
economically sound, environmentally responsible
and socially supportive
practices and underlies a strong corporate
commitment to and technological
expertise in the development and use of innovative
products.
At the heart of the sustainability portal are the
'Green Stories'. They
provide a picture of the forward-looking product
innovations from the
ContiTech business units. The portal
shows how the technology leader
fulfills current and future needs in the areas of
mobility, health,
nutrition, environment, energy production and
efficiency. These include
innovations in solar and wind energy as well as in
lightweight, healthful
materials for sustainable mobility or climate-
neutral conveyor belts. The
focus here is consistently on resource
conservation, waste avoidance, and
human and environmental safety.
In terms of appearance and content, the new site
is in line with
ContiTech's Engineering Green Value
brochure. Both media boast exceptional
formats that trigger a strong sensory response on
the part of viewers and
an
eagerness to explore further.
