Sustainability Rating
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is increasingly a requirement in the worldwide supply chain. Since 2014, we have undergone a regular assessment of our corporate social responsibility and sustainability efforts by the EcoVadis platform – with very good results once again in 2022.
We regularly publish our environmental targets and achievements in the Environmental Report. Here you will find the report for the 2021 reporting period.
