Environmental Policy

Our objective is to design our products, processes, and manufacturing methods in a manner that minimizes environmental impact, conserves natural resources, and fosters sustainable solutions. We are committed to the continuous improvement of our environmental performance and proactively embed environmental protection into all aspects of our business operations.

Sustainability and Resource Efficiency
We employ energy- and water-efficient technologies, prioritize waste minimization throughout our processes, and promote recycling across all sectors of our operations. Our aim is to harmonize environmental stewardship with economic success – with a commitment to ecological responsibility, operational efficiency, and long-term sustainability.
Environmental Management System according to ISO 14001:2015

In order to consistently pursue these objectives, we have established an Environmental Management System (EMS) in compliance with DIN EN ISO 14001:2015. The system enables us to systematically enhance our environmental performance, identify risks, and implement targeted measures. Its effectiveness is regularly verified through internal and external audits.

Management Responsibility

Our top management actively assumes responsibility for environmental protection.

It ensures that environmental considerations are embedded into all relevant business processes, that adequate resources are provided, and that environmental goals are set, monitored, and achieved. Through this commitment, we demonstrate a clear dedication to sustainability across all levels of the organization.

Organization and Responsibilities

An Environmental Protection Officer has been appointed at our Nordheim headquarters to coordinate all environment-related activities. In collaboration with the Hazardous Materials Officer, the Waste Management Officer, the Fire Protection Officer, the Occupational Health and Safety Specialist, and the Energy Management Officer, he forms an interdisciplinary environmental team. This team regularly reviews environmental topics, initiates appropriate measures, and monitors their implementation.

Occupational Health and Safety

We design our workplaces to safeguard the health and safety of our employees.

Through regular training and targeted communication, we foster a culture of personal responsibility and proactive safety awareness.

Legal and Regulatory Requirements

We fully comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulatory requirements. Whenever possible, we strive to exceed these standards in order to minimize environmental impact and actively support sustainable development.
Employee Involvement
Employees are regularly informed about environmental goals, initiatives, and changes. Everyone is encouraged to play an active role in environmental protection. Our internal suggestion scheme, ASIP, fosters innovation and supports improvements related to environmental performance. In doing so, our managers and executive leadership serve as role models.
