Watertrain® nominated: Baden-Württemberg Environmental Technology Award 2023
Scroll to explore
The nomination attests the Neoperl product innovation Watertrain® a significant contribution to resource efficiency and environmental protection. Our innovation entered the race in the category "Material Efficiency".
› Watertrain® is a newly designed waterway that guides the water from the corner valve through the faucet to the aerator without any contact with the faucet body. This has far-reaching positive effects that make the Neoperl’s Watertrain® an environmental champion:
- Environmentally friendly materials: our non-contact waterway allows our customers to use innovative materials for faucet manufacturing that, for example, do not require drinking water approval, are significantly lighter or have other more environmentally friendly processing conditions. This has a double effect and leads to more environmentally friendly processes at the faucet manufacturers.
- Heavy metal-free: As a separate waterway, Watertrain® protects against the migration of heavy metals from the faucet body into the drinking water, thus ensuring the highest water quality.
- Standardised components: The use of standardised components significantly reduces logistics and storage costs, and thanks to an adaptable design, Watertrain® can be installed in faucets of any type and size.
- Recycling-friendly: Thanks to Watertrain®, faucets can be easily dismantled and separated by type, which increases the recycling rate enormously.
The Ministry of the Environment, Climate Protection and the Energy Sector Baden Württemberg has been awarding the Baden-Württemberg Environmental Technology Award every two years since 2009. The award is given for outstanding and innovative products and processes in environmental technology.
Companies with their headquarters or a branch office in Baden-Württemberg are eligible to participate. The award is given to products that make a significant contribution to resource efficiency and environmental protection and are about to be launched on the market or have been on the market for less than two years.
The Baden-Württemberg Environmental Technology Award is presented in the following four categories: 'Energy Efficiency', 'Material Efficiency', 'Emission Reduction, Processing and Separation' and 'Measurement and Control Technology, Industry 4.0'. Within the four categories, the jury presents an additional special award based on current environmental policy challenges.
