One of the simplest things we can do to contribute to a better environment is to reduce the amount of waste. This is especially important with plastics, a fact that July, the month without plastics, reminded us all of. 💚 Škoda Auto is reducing the amount of plastics and increasing sustainability in its production. This effort is part of the automaker's broader strategy, which includes several innovative projects and initiatives. Take a look at them: 🟢 One of the key projects is the development of sustainable materials. Lukáš Zuzánek from technical development explains the main advantages of sustainable materials. These include saving fossil resources and using materials at the end of their life cycle. This allows us to offer customers cars that contain environmentally friendly materials. 🟢 An important part of this strategy is also the collaboration with universities, where joint development activities and student projects in the field of sustainable materials are carried out. Cooperation with experts from the supply chain is also essential. 🌱 We are actively working on improving the overall environmental footprint of the company. And we thank you for being part of it with us. ♻️💟 Explore more on our blog: https://lnkd.in/ej-u8mQY #SkodaAuto #exploremore #sustainability #greenfuture #plastics

🚗 See how Škoda cars are made, step by step. The next episode of our Minutes from Car Production series shows the crucial moment when a car gets its face. 🛠️ After the body is joined to the chassis and power units, the next steps involve inserting other components, including the radiator, into the engine compartment. This is when the car gets its face, i.e., its entire front end. First to go in are the headlights, followed by the front bumper set with the radiator grille. Despite the large size of this part, the workers fitting it onto the Škoda Kodiaq make it look easy. Do you want to know more? Lets face it - you do.
