EMKA: EMKA is a supporting member of Circular Valley

Globally unique, Circular Valley is establishing the extended Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan area as a leading center for the circular economy, mirroring Silicon Valley‘s influence on the digital economy.

The establishment of the Wuppertal Movement brings together leading companies, academic research, and new startups to create eco-friendly methods for closing material loops in existing value chains. As a funding partner, EMKA actively pursues the goals of Circular Valley. Sustainability and responsible natural resource management are core principles of the company‘s philosophy.

For years, EMKA has prioritized sustainable solutions through energy-efficient production and ongoing environmental initiatives.

These include a closed cooling water cycle in plastics technology, the use of renewable energies and modern heating systems to save energy. EMKA‘s Circular Valley commitment champions innovative solutions that sustainably balance economic growth and environmental protection. EMKA‘s actions strongly signal a positive future for the circular economy – both regionally and globally.

Jan Rehnig (Spokesman of the Management Board) with his wife and co-owner Sarah Runge-Rehnig and Joaquin Borge Sanchez (Head of Sales Export) are committed to sustainable economic concepts at the Circular Valley Forum in the Wuppertal City Hall.

Sustainability in focus: Circular Valley is an initiative to promote the circular economy with the aim of establishing the extended Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan region as a leading centre for sustainable economic activity. As part of the funding network, EMKA, together with other partners such as BASF, BAYER, Henkel and Vorwerk, supports innovative approaches for a resource-efficient and sustainable economy.
