Environmental Protection

Environmental protection and corporate sustainability are an integral part of our corporate policy and are firmly anchored in our mission statement and corporate structure.

We are very conscious of our responsibility towards the environment, resources and future generations and place this at the centre of our daily activities. For us, economy and ecology are not contradictions, but form the basis for sustainable value creation.

This is why we strive to continuously improve our environmental performance through our environmental programme. Our environmental performance includes reduction measures in the following areas: Greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption, negative impacts at local level and biodiversity loss. On top of that, we are optimising the use of resources and material cycles. Through the use of innovative and creative solutions, we also aim to increase the use of alternative or "green" products.

Environmental Indicators

Particularly in the creation and expansion of infrastructure, large quantities of raw materials are used and ecosystems are affected. With the introduction of the environmental management system according to ISO 14001, we have recognised the need for environmental protection and the implementation as an integral part of our corporate culture.
