Got to have a WAGO" - 50 years of Splicing Connector

Nothing is too small to make a positive impact on our environment. Therefore, the comany has reimagined one of their best-known products – the 221 Series Splicing Connector. A variant made of partially bio-circular and recycled plastics has been created to keep existing resources in circulation. The connector thus lays a more sustainable footprint right at the start of the installation. The new connector from the Green Range family is a first step towards sustainable development since every big change begins with a first small step.
