Environmental Social Governance

Our sustainability concept

Our sustainability agenda engages with environmental, economic and social aspects. We wish to improve in all three areas and are always looking for ways save more resources.

We are ready to invest in this aim and are thinking about how to achieve tangible results through changes in behaviour.

We have laid down principles for our day-to-day activity in a Code of Conduct. In addition to our ESG guidelines, this includes fundamental values such as equal opportunities, transparency and security.
