Sustainability Dialogue

The sustainability dialog is a format of our sustainability communication with which we enter into an exchange with stakeholders and gather feedback

We make our progress transparent

The sustainable transformation of the economy is becoming increasingly important for us as a society. This is why sustainability has been an integral part of our corporate strategy since 2020. Our current strategy “Moving Forward” is based on three pillars: growth, excellence, and responsibility. Responsibility represents the entire sustainability spectrum of "Environment, Social and Governance (ESG)”. For us, this means that we support our customers on their way to sustainability and at the same time set a good example ourselves.

We want to make our sustainability goals transparent and show what progress we have made towards them. Feedback and exchange with our stakeholders are important to us. For this reason, we have launched the Sustainability Dialogue as a format for sustainability communication.
