Prod uction
Whethe r in production or repair, Porsche always
relies on en v ironmentally friendly technology. An
example of this is the water-based paint used in our
painting installations. Water-base paints and new
painting methods reduc e solvent emissions by 70
per cent. The water used i n the painting installation
is recirculated. Waste water leaves the Porsche
factory only after being appropriately treated.
A waste-management system has been introduced
to reduc e the amount of waste while simultaneous-
ly increasing the recycling rate.
Environmentally friendly vehicles
Modern environmental technology ensures
complia nce with all emission laws applicable
worldwide.
It has the following advantages:
– Rapid operational readiness of the catalytic
converters ensures low emissions, even in
short-trip operation.
– Reliable operation and good emission control
over a long useful life.
