Wear protection
Wear Protection and Sustainability. An Expert Study by the German Society for Tribolgy

Around the world, legislation and supervisory authorities have applied regulations primarily focused on CO ₂ emissions to apply the precepts of sustainable development to a wide range of products. Land, sea and air transport vehicles, operated with consistent efficiency throughout their life cycle, are an important piece of the puzzle.

It's important to remember that durability and wear protection are inextricably linked to sustainable development, one of our society's major objectives. Products with a longer life cycle are more efficient in terms of the materials, primary energy and labor that go into them. In the technosphere of a circular economy, longer life cycles mean better use of resources in consumer products.

Increasingly stringent requirements in terms of emissions and fuel consumption...
