We live and breathe sustainability
Polymer processing and the circular economy belong together – precisely because plastics are so long-lasting. Their intelligent use and optimal re-use are very important to us as a company. We believe that this will be crucial for the future of society and we are resolutely working on promoting this. Our focus in this is on supplementing conventional materials with recycling innovation. We have our own research and development capacities to enable us to advise our customers to the best of our abilities. We rely on strategic partnerships to help us shape the polymer world of tomorrow together.
Our focus areas
We are committed to the 17 sustainable development goals which the UN defined in their agenda for 2030. This roadmap for the future is intended to establish global guidelines to enable a decent life and at the same time conserve the natural bases of life on a sustained basis. We have set our sights on five focus points towards which we wish to orient ourselves in our activities related to sustainability.
Value-oriented growth
Innovation through digitalization
Breaking down inequalities
Promoting the circular economy
Partnerships to accomplish our goals
Compliance
As a family-owned company, we are deeply committed to integrity and sustainability. This is just as true inside our company – in the form of binding values and rules of conduct for all our employees globally – as it is in our dealings with our business partners. These are all set down in writing in our Code of Conduct.
We rigorously reject all forms of corruption, antitrust violations, money laundering, non-compliance with environmental regulations or other illegal conduct. We have also created an option for reporting breaches of compliance using a web-based tool. These notifications are naturally treated as confidential and the tool can be used both by employees and third parties.
