“Collaborating the integration recycled plastics means transforming engineering expertise into
measurable sustainability. October 2025
Hager Group has introduced recycled plastics from LATI into its Arc-Fault Detection Device (AFDD)
series. This new generation protection devices completing existing protection for buildings,
which has been designed close collaboration with LATI applying ecodesign principles. For end users, nothing changes terms protection. This choice reduces reliance fossil-based plastics and fully embraces circular economy
approach, while maintaining the devices’ proven fire-prevention performance intact.
The chosen material not only meets strict flame resistance and durability standards, limits the use fossil-
based plastics and fully supports circular economy reintroducing materials into the production cycle
rather than relying virgin resources.
By rethinking materials products that protect lives every day, Hager shows how safety and sustainability
can advanced together. With LATI’s compounds, achieve the valorisation recycled plastics without
compromising the safety and reliability our devices.Hager Group news

Engineering for circularity
This material choice one example how Hager embedding the circular economy into its product
development.
Safer homes, smarter materials
Arc-Fault Detection Devices are designed prevent electrical fires disconnecting the circuit soon an
arc fault occurs.” says Patricia Lamouche, Engineering Discipline
Leader Materials Hager Group. The company has committed halving its Scope and emissions and cutting Scope 3
emissions 25% 2030 with tangible progress already achieved 2024: 20% reduction Scope 2
and 23% reduction Scope 3.
