Environmental policy

Responsibility for people & workplace

Our employees are the heart of THERMOTEX. That's why we invest in a healthy, safe and respectful working environment:

• Ergonomics & occupational safety: From production to the office, we rely on modern, ergonomic workstations and comprehensive occupational safety measures.
• Health promotion: We create a healthy working environment with fresh fruit and filtered drinking water. Hansefit gives our employees access to over 2,500 sports and health programmes.
• Social commitment: We regularly support social projects and specifically examine co-operations with workshops for people with disabilities and social employment initiatives.
• Promoting young talent: We are actively committed to the future of the region through apprenticeships and internships.

Our motto: Only those who feel comfortable can work successfully in the long term.

Responsibility for the environment & resources

We are committed to the careful use of resources and make our processes as energy-efficient and environmentally friendly as possible:

• Our own photovoltaic system: It covers 57% of our annual electricity requirements, saving around 90 tonnes of CO₂ per year. By consistently switching to LED lighting, we are further reducing energy consumption.
• Regional added value & short delivery routes: 78% of our procurement turnover comes from Germany or neighbouring countries. This not only strengthens the regional economy, but also reduces emissions thanks to short transport routes.
• Conserving resources through the circular economy: We use material made from recycled plastic for our shipping and use innovative packaging solutions such as WaveWrap for small goods to avoid plastic air and padding material, which can also be reused.
• Water-saving production & recycling concepts: Our processes are optimised to minimise water consumption, complemented by a comprehensive waste separation and recycling concept.
• No generation of harmful emissions: Our production processes are emission-free - no environmentally harmful emissions are produced.
• Digitalisation instead of business trips: We reduce journeys and emissions through remote support and digital customer advice.

For us, sustainability means actively working to reduce our ecological footprint - step by step, day by day.
