Sustainability Strategy

As a social institution, our focus is on people and their resources. We are sustainably interested in offering our fellow human beings a self-determined working environment and living environment. We act economically, always with a view to our environment.

"Resources" are all the things and people we have so that we can do something. For example, money, electricity, materials and employees.

The main points of our sustainability strategy:

"Sustainability" is good for the environment.

Environment

Local and global environmental protection. We strive every day to use sustainable and resource-saving solutions in procurement, production or living culture.

"Procurement" comes from the word "procure." It means to obtain or buy something. For example, we procure material or equipment.
If something is "sustainable," it's good for the environment.
"Resources" are all the things and people we have so that we can do something. For example, money, electricity, materials and employees. "Resource-conserving" means: We take care of our resources and we are economical with them. Then we will have enough resources later on.

Heat

We use renewable energy and waste heat from our industrial production as far as possible.

Energy

We use green electricity from energy sources such as water, sun and bio-mass to reduce our energy consumption.

Transportation

Environmentally friendly means of transport and ecological driving are important to us.

Raw material cycle

We use and utilize water consciously and carefully.

"Conscious" means we think carefully about how we treat others.

We are ISO 14001 certified.

Something is "certified"? Then it is really good. That's what a certificate is for. A certificate is like a deed or a report card.
