A duty to sustainability
Climate change, growing globalization and the scarcity of valuable and finite resources are issues of both today and tomorrow. As a family company, we are committed to sustainability. For us it starts with the right location decision. We believe that products in the Medical technology and Industriebranche with high quality and delivery reliability are required (and will continue to be required in the future) and therefore we put our support behind the manufacturing locations „Made in Germany“The short delivery routes to our German and European customers form efficient supply chains and reduce CO2 emissions. For us, sustainability means prevention and efficiency; we are already pursuing these ideas when developing technology, processes and materials for new products. In addition, we handle resources such as material and energy carefully. We have been implementing material cycles („Circular Economy“) for reuse with our partners for years. To ensure long-term efficiency, we use implementation methods such as PDCA and quality tools such as 8D.
In addition to our corporate principles, we voluntarily adhere to the ten principles of the UN Global Compact. These include:
- respect for internationally recognized human rights and their protection within its sphere of influence,
- the protection of freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining,
- the elimination of forced and child labor, as well as the prevention of discrimination in employment and occupation,
- the responsible use of environmental resources, the promotion of environmentally friendly technologies, and the precautionary approach to environmental protection,
- as well as the fight against corruption in all its forms.
