Sustainability
& what it means to us

Anyone who runs a family business takes responsibility. Especially those who process natural products. Because only unspoiled nature provides the basis for healthy and pure products. For our generation and those of the future.

Our claim

We are committed to the preservation of nature and the environment. We ensure the complete traceability of our products. We audit our suppliers and ensure that natural resources are protected at all relevant points in the supply chain, above all, through certification and the complete traceability of our products.

We follow the principles of GMP and ISO 9001 and thus guarantee the quality and safety of work processes and the production environment. We create a modern working environment and good conditions for our employees.

We are committed to environmentally friendly energy sources and low CO2 emissions: through energy-saving lighting, temperature controls that are tailored to our working hours, the use of electrically powered forklifts, and the procurement of economical vehicles, and we also attach great importance to recycling our residual materials.

A HIGHER AUTHORITY THAN LEGAL REQUIREMENTS?
OUR OWN PRINCIPLES

The circular economy

The systems thinking perspective of understanding more about the ecosystem around our company can help identify risks, problems and opportunities.

The main reasons for this are the great responsibility that is borne for nature and people, resource security, regeneration, risk reduction and, finally, both your reputation and ours as a responsible company.

Carbon footprint

Our goal is to work with you to reduce the carbon footprint of your products.

A variety of factors are considered as part of this calculation. The fact that we are massively committed to the preservation of nature and the environment is an important step in the right direction for us. Our new photovoltaic system, for example, makes a further contribution towards us as a company becoming climate-neutral.

ANYONE WHO RUNS A FAMILY BUSINESS TAKES RESPONSIBILITY.
Especially those who process natural products.

The environmental aspect of CSR has been discussed a lot in the last few decades and it has long been a firm ambition of ours to become more environmentally conscious and more socially engaged.

We follow the principles of GMP and ISO 9001 and thus guarantee the quality and safety of our work processes and our production environment. We create a modern working environment and good conditions for our employees. It is the high demands we place on ourselves that make us try to become even better every day.

Operational environmental protection

There is a higher authority than the legal requirements concerning safety and environmental protection: our own principles.

Every day, we implement numerous measures for occupational safety and environmental protection: all storage and production areas meet the highest requirements of the Water Management Act. We reduce air emissions by locking all storage and production containers.

All storage and production sections are also additionally secured by spill barriers for extinguishing water. Opened batches are additionally secured by special collecting trays, and the filling processes also take place via such collecting trays. In the distillation area, the exhaust air is completely neutralised by catalytic post-combustion.

Packaging

We use sustainable packaging made from rapidly renewable raw materials in order to conserve natural resources, save energy and reduce CO2 emissions.

For example, our samples are shipped in sustainable packaging made of 30% grass. The effects of this are no land consumption by the feed industry, savings on wood resources, a reduction in CO2 emissions, and less water and energy consumption.

When developing our high-quality products, we use sustainably designed processes to ensure that the available resources are used sparingly.

Our employees are actively involved as an integral part of this process in order to achieve the highest level of environmental awareness. We also involve our suppliers across the entire supply chain in these activities. It also goes without saying that we remain in active dialogue with the environmental authorities in order for us to minimise our environmental impact. We see every chance to reduce our impact on the climate as an opportunity for optimisation.

Our long-term corporate policy ensures we will meet global requirements for environmental protection and sustainability in order to preserve resources for future generations. To ensure this commitment, we are supported and advised by the non-profit Zero-Footprint -Umwelt- und Nachhaltigkeitsberatung GmbH.
