  Out of respect for the environment, our philosophy in ammunition processing is to eliminate explosive content and, where possible, to recycle materials, including propellants, and to use them for other purposes on the civilian market. This is known as the R3 philosophy and represents the recovery and recycling of resources.
  In the procedures, the highest safety and environmental standards are ensured in full compliance with the laws and regulations in the field of the European Union.
