Recycling information

While choosing and constructing our components we put a great emphasis on economically-friendly and durable materials.
Even at the end of their lifetime solar installations contain a multiplicity of extremely precious and easily-separable raw materials. We recommend an environmentally sound recycling.

If there is no possibility of recycling, Wagner & Co commits to taking all components and materials back and to disposing of them properly.
Moreover, we hereby give you the most important details of how to recycle and demount our prefabricated parts on site.

  Tank: steel or enameled steel
  Insulating foam: Polyurethane foam (removable from tank)
  Grommet: Polystyrene (removable from foam)
• Solar collector (EURO C20)
  Cover: Glass ESG (pre-stressed)
  Insulation: EPDM-rubber seal or pipe penetration made out of silicon
