Environmental Sustainability
at Schunk Group

As a company, we attach great importance to continuously making our production processes more sustainable. Typical measures we implement include increasing energy efficiency through modern machinery and equipment, using renewable energies, optimizing the use of materials and resources, and reducing waste and emissions. In addition, we rely on circular economy concepts, digital process control to minimize waste, and sustainable logistics solutions to continuously improve our environmental balance.

We invest specifically in the modernization and optimization of our building infrastructure in order to increase energy efficiency and use resources sustainably. This includes measures such as the installation of energy-efficient heating, ventilation, and control systems. With these investments, we not only reduce the ecological footprint of our sites, but also create sustainable, economical, and comfortable work environments for our employees.

We bring together our experts from different fields to pool knowledge, experience, and innovative ideas. Through interdisciplinary exchange, we identify potential for increasing efficiency, develop joint strategies for sustainable energy supply, and implement concrete measures for future-proof production. In this way, we strengthen our internal competencies and actively drive forward the energy transition within our company.

We are replacing fossil fuels with electric power in order to reduce emissions and make the production process more sustainable. The use of electricity enables better integration of renewable energy sources and increases the energy efficiency of our plants.

We use heat pumps to efficiently utilize the ambient temperature for heating and cooling our buildings and production facilities. This technology significantly reduces energy consumption and CO₂ emissions compared to conventional heating systems.

We provide charging infrastructure for electric vehicles at our major locations. In this way, we promote environmentally friendly mobility for our employees and reduce CO₂ emissions from company transport in the long term.
