HUBER+SUHNER and Axjo Europe collaborate on sustainable cable drums

26.05.2025

HUBER+SUHNER recognises the importance of collaboration – especially with partners in the value chain – to achieve its own sustainability goals, as well as those of its customers and suppliers. In the first phase, the collaboration with Axjo offers customers in Germany a free collection service for empty cable drums, regardless of their condition. After collection, Axjo carries out a quality control, during which damaged drums are repaired and can then be reused up to eight times. At the end of their life cycle, the cable drums are granulated and processed into new ones.

" Sustainability is an integral part of our company strategy and thus leads to innovative solutions with partners like Axjo. By returning, repairing, or recycling the drums, material consumption, waste, and emissions are reduced. This is an important step towards a circular economy and resource conservation," says Lana Ollier, Head Global Sustainability & Environment at HUBER+SUHNER.

"Our goal at Axjo is to make circularity both practical and scalable. By collaborating with HUBER+SUHNER, we close the loop on plastic drum usage for their customers, transforming waste into valuable resources while helping our partners meet their climate targets," says Victoria Balika, Sustainability developer at Axjo.

The collection service is offered through an application developed by Axjo. You can find further information here.
