Environmental and energy management

Sparing use of resources

Environmental protection is an essential element of our corporate policy. We are committed to the continuous improvement of environmental protection in our company and regard the sparing use of resources as an essential element of our business responsibility. With certification to DIN EN ISO 14001:2015, we therefore highlight the importance of protecting our environment in the long term.

  • Energy efficiency/CO2 reduction
    We have been receiving green electricity at our site in Rosenberg since March 2021. This has enabled us to significantly reduce our Scope 2 CO2 emissions. In order to use the energy supplied to us efficiently, we constantly monitor our energy consumption and strive to use energy-efficient methods where possible.
  • Waste
    All waste is disposed of or recycled in accordance with the Commercial Waste Ordinance by a certified company.
  • Handling of hazardous materials
    Our safety officer reviews and documents the handling of hazardous materials as well as their storage and use at regular intervals in accordance with the hazardous substances register.
  • Raw material input and use
    We make decisions about manufacturing methods and the materials used based on economic and environmental aspects. By doing so, we achieve targeted resource savings and waste prevention.
  • Packaging
    To ensure that the packaging not only protects our products - but also the climate - we make sure to keep transport distances as short as possible already during the procurement process of our packaging. We prioritise regional and national suppliers. Our goal is to continuously increase the proportion of recycled packaging.
  • REACH Regulation
    Compliance goes beyond excluding the use of prohibited substances to documenting compliance with the current laws in the EC safety data sheets. All our products are supplied in compliance with the REACH regulation. We regularly request the relevant data from our suppliers.
  • EcoVadis medal
    Sustainability is an important issue for us, and for our customers. In order to share our sustainability performance with our partners, we recently completed the EcoVadis questionnaire. Hauff-Technik was rewarded the silver medal, confirming our commitment to sustainability issues. Despite the good results however, we will continue to work on improving out sustainability practices.
