In our company, environmental protection is an important part of our corporate policy. We are committed to complying with the applicable legal framework and requirements of our society for environment and energy, continually improving our environmental and energy performance, and thereby making an effective contribution to resource conservation and environmental protection.

This means for us:

• regularly checking whether the necessary financial and structural conditions are in place,
• regular assessment and monitoring of environmental and energy impacts,
• avoiding unnecessary energy and environmental burdens,
• regularly setting and tracking targets for continuous improvement of environmental performance and energy efficiency,

• take-back of products and corresponding disposal by components/materials
• producing durable products, as well as ensuring the availability of spare parts and a functional replacement of at least 15 years

Our organization ensures that all necessary information to achieve our set goals is available. We regularly commit to reviewing our management policy and initiating necessary corrections. Last but not least, we are aware of our responsibility for the environment. By using environmentally friendly raw and auxiliary materials as well as gentle production processes, we want to contribute our best to environmental protection. Waste avoidance is our top priority. As far as this is not possible, we strive for the recovery of our waste through recycling. The disposal of our products at our customers’ is also part of our environmental and energy policy.

We are committed to delivering ecologically safe products to our customers. We provide advisory support to our customers regarding the disposal of residual products. Our products meet the state of the art and contain no hazardous substances that excessively burden people or the environment. Together with our suppliers, we see it as our task to constantly minimize this burden. Through training, information, and events, we educate and strengthen the environmental awareness of our employees. We keep the public continuously informed about our efforts and activities in environmental protection and the environmental impacts of our company. We want to avoid, reduce, and recover any waste that arises. Where waste cannot be avoided or reduced, the minimized residual materials will be recovered to almost 100%. Our goal is a closed material cycle in all areas.

Every employee is integrated into our management system and has the right and obligation to work towards eliminating circumstances that cause unnecessary burdens on the environment. Managers are required to apply the management practices applicable in their area of responsibility, constantly monitor their effectiveness and adapt them to the latest knowledge and requirements.

We adhere to binding commitments.
