SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY
Sustainable Mobility –
sustainable and cycle-managed products
Sustainable mobility is at the center of our development work. As an engineering service provider, the EDAG Group offers integrated solutions for environmentally friendly mobility and sustainable products. From innovative e-mobility concepts to closed-loop production – our sustainable engineering covers the entire product life cycle. Through sustainability certifications and ecological mobility approaches, we actively shape the sustainable mobility of the future. With our QLCA tool, we analyze the CO₂ footprint at an early stage and promote the circular economy with end-of-life solutions, e.g. for battery systems.
Our core competencies:
- Holistic approach: From design to return to the material cycle, we optimize every step for maximum sustainability.
- Innovative technologies: Our QLCA tool enables early carbon footprint analysis in product development.
- Circular economy: We develop end-of-life solutions, e.g. for battery systems, and promote the reuse of materials.
These competencies enable us to develop sustainable means of transportation that are both ecologically and economically convincing.
Topic overview

Environmentally friendly mobility – from concept to realization
Sustainable mobility is our focus.
