Our Finances
Sustainable business is not a contradiction
Our finances are part of our sustainability strategy. Because sustainable economics also mean dealing in a forward-looking and careful manner with our financial resources, in order to secure the success and continued existence of the company.
At the same time the finances are a strong lever to direct the company towards a climate-friendly future. In future we aim to strengthen still further investments in projects and measures which reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Careful and well-considered handing of finances can secure the success of a company, promote innovation and at the same time encourage a sustainable future.

Investing in the future
Investing in new production facilities and machinery that meets the latest standards, in renewable energy and the expansion or renovation of existing buildings are examples of investments which make us bigger, more competitive, more modern and more environmentally friendly!
A few examples from our company:
✔ Purchase of green electricity and investments in photovoltaic systems
✔ Reducing the use of gas as a fossil fuel and replacing it with district heating or alternative plant technologies
✔ LED lighting in offices and on company premises
We see all these investments as aspects of sustainable business.
