That’s a belief we’ve built our brand on since the 70s. No matter how close you look, you’ll see it in every single detail.
Helping homes across the world have less of an impact on the world.
While good design might be long-lasting, not everything in this world shares that trait. Waste has become a part of our every day. Because right now, waste is easy. If the equipment falters or the food looks less than perfect, discarding and buying new feels like the easiest step. When obsolescence is part of everyday design, it becomes a part of everyday life, too. We know the decisions made every day in every single home have the power to change the world.
That’s why at Braun, we’re making the decisions easier for you.
80% of a product’s environmental impact is determined at the design stage
That’s why it is important to have a systemic approach to product development following our new Group Eco-Design Guidelines, a manual developed in cooperation with experts of Politecnico di Milano that set the basis of strategic knowledge of a new - generation of eco-efficient appliances. As a step forward 70% of our newly developed products will be covered by this Eco-Design Guideline from 2023 on.
Minimisation
Energy and material consumption as well as material toxicity and harmfulness shall be minimised.
Optimisation
Life of products and components and material conservation/renewability shall be optimised.
Facilitation
Recycling and disassembly of material shall be facilitated.
We believe that good design can make lives better.
Back in the 70s Dieter Rams developed Braun’s memorable design language and defined 10 principles of good design that are still relevant today. While these principles have been a part of our DNA from the start, we’re always looking to the future.
Good Design is environmentally friendly.
We aim to use as little resources as possible and work on increasing the usage of materials in our products that are either recycled, recyclable, or both.
Moving forward, we are working on having at least 30%* of recycled plastic over the total plastic used in newly developed/upcoming products as of 2027 according to our commitment regarding material recycling.
Moreover, we have already saved more than 100 tons of paper through the partial digitalisation of our user instruction manuals for products globally sold in 2022. Also, there was no EPS (Synthesized Expanded Polystyrene) in the packaging of 53% of the Braun products sold in 2022.
*Excluded plastic for food contact application.
Good Design is honest.
Good design is honest. We will never make promises about our environmental impact that we can't keep.
Good Design is useful.
Which is why all of ours help you get the most use out of the things you have, like turning wrinkly fruit and veg into delicious meals.

Your food processor has been put to good use in my home for the last 50 years. I have nothing but praise for your company and would recommend you to others.

In use for over 60 years.
55 years ago, I received three Braun appliances as gifts when my daughter was born: a mixer, a juicer and a fruit press. I have been using all three appliances almost every day since 1960. So I would like to say thanks for the great quality and all the years of use without any repairs.

1998 köpte vi en Braun Combimax 700 matberedare. Min fru har matlagning som en hobby, så matberedaren användes flitigt. Och inte bara en eller två gånger, utan ibland i mer än 2 eller 3 timmar - med pauser förstås! Efter ungefär 10 år började vi undra hur mycket längre den egentligen kunde hålla. Så 2008 köpte vi en ny matberedare - en Braun Combimax 700 också, naturligtvis - för att vara beredd på när originalet skulle sluta fungera. Men den fortsatte att fungera perfekt. Den 25 september 2014 (!!!), gav den ötnligen upp efter 16 och ett halvt år! Sammanlagd beräkning: 198 månader x 25 dagar.
