Sustainability – Suppliers and Partners

“Sustainability is about persistence, not perfection.”

– unknown

The environmental and sustainability behaviour of our partners and suppliers, as well as the environmentally sound quality of the materials and products supplied, significantly determine our own environmental performance and the sustainability of our economic activities. Therefore, we select our partners according to selected criteria and work together in partnership to continuously improve our performance.

Logistics

In procurement, we pay attention to short distances and optimal order quantities. In delivery, we work via dispatch hubs with bundled transports and the shortest possible direct transport routes to the user.

Regional procurement over international procurement
Transport and production-optimised order lot sizes
Optimisation of transport volumes and routes in delivery

Procurement

Our suppliers must meet our environmental and sustainability standards. Therefore, we use various criteria in the selection of our partners.

Certification according to DIN EN ISO 9001 and DIN EN ISO 14001
Certification according to PEFC (COC)
Compliance with our “Code of Conduct” for suppliers
Supplier audits

Responsibility

As an industrial company in the rural area, we create perspectives for employment in our company and with suppliers and cooperation partners.

Locally, we work closely with ELSTER WERKE GmbH, a non-profit organisation for adults who, due to the nature and severity of their cognitive or physical impairment, are not able to work in the general labour market. In this way, we also contribute to the social integration and occupational rehabilitation of these people.
