With an evolving market situation and an influx of production pouring in from international sources, Europe's plastics industry is undergoing significant changes.

Behavior Based Safety (BBS) is an important aspect of safety work within the Bertschi Group. Accordingly, great importance was also attached to the introduction and implementation of the BBS system in Zhangjiagang, the newly opened Bertschi liquids hub in China. In order to train the team on site, our experienced and certified BBS expert of many years, Evi Jacobs, traveled to China for two weeks in July 2023.

The international Operation Clean Sweep (OCS) initiative has a crucial mission: to prevent the release of plastic granulates into our environment, especially our oceans.
