Sustainability is firmly embedded in our strategy. We are committed to social and environmental responsibility and actively pursue the ambitious targets set by the German Climate Protection Act.
In 2025, we reduced CO₂ emissions at our headquarters in Mönchengladbach by 50%. In the coming years, we aim to achieve further reductions. The following measures help us reach this goal:
Sustainable ISO 50001 certification
Since February 2019, we have been certified according to DIN EN ISO 50001. With this certification, we are committed to continuously improving our own energy efficiency in a measurable way. To this end, we are increasingly using energy-efficient products, services and processes.
Partnerships for sustainability
We are a partner of VDMA’s Blue Competence sustainability initiative. Its aim is to promote sustainability in the mechanical engineering industry and to make sustainable solutions known to the industry. As a partner, we commit to follow the 12 sustainability guidelines of the mechanical engineering industry.

In addition, we are a member of the VEA initiative "Climate-friendly medium-sized businesses", through which we promote energy efficiency, the use of climate-friendly energies and climate protection projects.
VEA - The energy consultant for medium-sized businesses
We contribute to sustainable aviation by promoting innovative fuel technology. We order Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) at the Lufthansa Group, which is not made from fossil fuels, but from used cooking oils or agricultural waste. Compared to conventional kerosene, SAF saves at least 80 % of carbon emissions across the entire value chain – immediately reducing flight-related CO2 emissions.
