The more people that work together, the more that can be achieved. That is why we also involve our direct suppliers in our sustainability activities and strive for transparency across the entire process from procurement through to delivery to the customer. This also includes the internal business processes. We aim to ensure sustainable working practices at every stage. Where the pre-materials for our products come from, under what conditions they are produced, where can energy be saved and waste avoided: We want to be able to provide clear answers to these questions. We strive for fair cooperation with all our partners and employees and contribute jointly to sustainable development. This includes fair working conditions as well as environmental aspects and the responsible use of natural resources in the manufacturing of our products. Wherever possible, we use regional sources and look for long-term partners.
