At Kobato, sustainability is an important factor within our organization. Not only our polyurethane solution, but also our production and our employees contribute to a sustainable and healthy working environment. Thanks to the use of solar energy, we produce energy neutrally and we promote work atmosphere and support the physical health of our team.
Polyurethane: durable application
Polyurethane, or PU, is an abrasion-resistant, flexible plastic with high tear resistance. As a result, a layer of polyurethane extends the life and service life of parts in your plant or manufacturing process. This makes the use of polyurethane a durable solution for engineers and technical services to make a part last longer.
It is used so much that you come into contact with it every day without being aware of it. PU can be molded or sprayed into all kinds of shapes. Because of this, the possibilities with polyurethane are endless. The advantages of using polyurethane are:
- Reduced wear
- Noise reduction
- Improve gliding properties
- Chemical resistance
- Easy to clean
- Corrosion protection
Energy-neutral production
At Kobato, we generate our own energy. We do this by means of over 700 solar panels on the roof of our premises. We generate almost enough energy with our solar panels to produce energy neutrally. This makes us virtually self-sufficient and less dependent on the traditional electricity grid.
Vitality
At Kobato, we value well-being and productivity within the organization. The vitality of our employees contributes to this, allowing them to perform their work with full energy and motivation. The physical health of our employees is an essential component. We support physical health and promote the working atmosphere by participating in various (sporting) events and activities. For example, our team has signed up for the annual mud run “Tot de nek in de drek”.
