At Core Catering, we focus on suppliers who not only deliver quality and design but also actively reduce their environmental impact. APS exemplifies this approach, offering products that minimize waste, extend lifespans, and encourage sustainable practices in every aspect of hospitality.
Sustainability as a Business Priority
For hospitality businesses today, sustainability is more than a trend – it is essential. APS demonstrates that environmental responsibility and innovation can coexist. Their products help reduce waste, lower energy consumption, and support ethical sourcing, allowing businesses to meet environmental goals while maintaining efficiency and style.
APS Germany: A German Brand with Global Responsibility
APS is known for its commitment to quality, design, and sustainable practices. While production takes place at multiple sites, the brand ensures strict environmental and ethical standards throughout its operations. By focusing on durability, efficient manufacturing, and responsible materials, APS provides solutions that help the hospitality industry operate more sustainably worldwide.
Durable, Long-Lasting Products
APS designs products with longevity in mind. Melamine buffetware combines elegance with resilience, reducing breakage and waste. Stainless steel and slate are fully recyclable, and washable cotton textiles replace single-use fabrics. By prioritizing reuse and resilience, APS enables hospitality businesses to cut waste and operate sustainably without compromising quality.
Innovation and Circularity
APS invests in energy-efficient machinery and highly trained staff to optimize production processes, reduce raw material waste, and maximize recycling. Their products are designed to be reused, recycled, or repurposed, supporting a circular economy and moving the hospitality industry away from single-use solutions.
Ethical Sourcing and Social Responsibility
APS is certified as a family-friendly company and a member of the Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI), reflecting a commitment to employee well-being and ethical supply chains. By adhering to German and EU environmental standards, APS ensures that every product is responsibly sourced and produced.
Reducing Waste in Hotels and Catering
APS products help hospitality businesses significantly reduce waste. Melamine buffetware minimizes breakages, slate and stainless-steel items replace disposable trays, and washable cotton textiles cut down on single-use fabrics. Modular, stackable designs reduce storage and transport needs, making operations more sustainable and efficient without compromising the guest experience.
