Environmental policy

Environmental protection is an important part of our company policy. We are committed to complying with applicable legal requirements and the demands of our society regarding the environment and energy, to continuously improve our environmental and energy performance, and thus to make an effective contribution to the conservation of resources and environmental protection.

This means for us:

  • regularly reviewing whether the necessary financial and structural prerequisites are in place,
  • regularly determining and reviewing environmental and energy-related impacts,
  • avoiding unnecessary energy and environmental burdens,
  • regularly setting and pursuing targets for the continuous improvement of environmental performance and energy efficiency,
  • reducing business travel, wherever feasible, to save CO2 and fine dust. Holding meetings via digital media.
  • reducing paper requirements as well as color prints,
  • separating waste,
  • taking back products and proper disposal by components/materials,
  • manufacturing durable products, as well as guaranteeing spare parts and functional replacements for at least 15 years

 

Our organization ensures that all necessary information is available to achieve our set goals. We regularly commit ourselves to review our management policy and initiate necessary corrections. Last but not least, we are aware of our responsibility towards the environment. By using environmentally friendly raw and auxiliary materials, as well as environmentally sound production processes, we strive to make our best possible contribution to environmental protection. Waste avoidance is our top priority. Where this is not possible, we aim to recycle our waste. The disposal of our products by our customers is also an integral part of our environmental and energy policy.

We are committed to supplying our customers with ecologically safe products. We provide advice to our customers on the disposal of waste products. Our products comply with the current state of the art and do not contain any hazardous substances that would place excessive burdens on people and the environment. Together with our suppliers, we see it as our task to continuously minimize this burden. Through training, information, and events, we educate and strengthen the environmental awareness of our employees. We keep the public constantly informed about our efforts and activities in environmental protection and about the environmental impacts of our company. We aim to avoid, reduce, and recycle any waste generated. Where waste cannot be avoided or further reduced, the remaining materials, minimized as much as possible, are almost 100% recycled. Our goal in all areas is a closed material cycle.

Each employee is integrated into our management system and has both the right and the obligation to work towards eliminating any factors causing unnecessary environmental impact. Managers are obligated to implement the management practices applicable in their area of responsibility, to constantly monitor their effectiveness, and to adapt them to the latest knowledge and requirements.

We comply with our mandatory obligations.

With our energy production from renewable energy sources, we reduce the emission of carbon dioxide
