Sustainability
Our sustainability strategy and environmental management certified according to DIN EN ISO 14001 are fundamental components of future-proof corporate development.
Buildings according to KfW 40 / KfW 55 standards
The building consumes only 40/55% of the primary energy of a reference building according to the German Building Energy Act (GEG).
Excellent insulation of walls, roof and windows reduces heating and cooling requirements.
Use of energy-efficient technology (heat pumps, CHP units, ventilation systems with heat recovery, LED lighting, etc.)
Key component for low energy consumption and CO2 footprint
Combined heat, power and cooling (CHP)
Simultaneous generation of electricity, heat and cold from a common energy source
How it works:
CHP unit generates electricity and heat
Absorption chillers and bivalent heat pumps generate cooling from the waste heat of the CHP unit.
Maximum energy utilization through the use of waste heat
Significantly higher overall efficiency compared to separate electricity and heat generation
Reduction of operating costs and COâ‚‚ emissions
Components of the CHP plant
Free/recirculating cooling system with 1,750 kW capacity
Chiller with 2,000 kW output
Heat pump generator with 700 kW output
Ventilation system technology with a total capacity of 440,000 m³/h and heat/cold recovery with an efficiency of 86%
CHP unit with 376 kW electrical and 500 kW heat output
Absorption chiller with 400 kW cooling capacity
As a result, the CHP plant achieves an efficiency of 95% through the cooling process using hot water from the CHP unit in the summer months to generate air conditioning for production halls.
Photovoltaic systems
​
1. Photovoltaic system was installed in May 2022
2. Photovoltaic system was installed in April 2025.
Estimated annual electricity generation after connection of PV2: 2,345 MWh/a
CO2 savings compared to grid electricity: approx. 891.1 tCO2/a
The increasing share of self-generated electricity reduces network costs and measurably lowers the company's COâ‚‚ emissions.
​Intelligent coolant management
Automated control, monitoring and documentation of cooling lubricants on machining centers
Integration of all machining centers with automation
Monitoring of key performance indicators critical to quality, environmental protection and occupational safety
Reduced consumption through precise dosing and prevention of incorrect dosing and overfilling
Reduced consumption due to longer coolant service life through real-time control
Reduction of hazardous waste
