Our Commitment FROMM is committed to the protection of the environment and the responsible use of natural resources. This includes not only our self-imposed environmental requirements, such as the economical use of energy, raw materials and water or the regular certifications according to EN ISO 14001 and 50001, but also the consistent implementation of a vertical integration of production processes, from PET recycling to the production of STARstrap™ straps. FROMM has developed recycling techniques for used PET bottles that ensure the production of high quality PET regrind and PET regranulates. These PET recyclates are not only used as raw materials for new PET bottles (bottle to bottle) or for fibres and foils, they are also used in the production of STARstrap ™ straps. STARStrap™ straps from FROMM are manufactured from 100% recycled PET, which is sourced from our own recycling of PET bottles. Since STARstrap™ straps can be reprocessed after use in the same manner which enables a closed material lifecycle that sustainably protects natural resources. STARstrap ™ straps are made of recycled PET and are contaminant-free due to their material properties. They comply to REACH as well as ECHA standards and can become part of a closed loop lifecycle when handled in a responsible and environmentally sound manner. FROMM is a family-owned enterprise with headquarters in Switzerland. Since its foundation in 1947, FROMM has been completely dedicated to the development and production of systems and consumable materials for securing transport goods: Systems for strapping and wrapping, as well as the patented Airpad™ air-cushion system. FROMM's experience in the end packing field paired with uncompromisingly reliable quality can be summed up in two words: no problem. All FROMM systems and consumables are produced in FROMM development centres and factories according to ISO 9001. FROMM - Swiss quality for strapping systems with STARstrap™ straps FROMM considers its staff to be its most important capital.
