Driven by Sustainability

Our strategies and actions to make the world greener

"Making the world greener" describes our idea of responsibility towards nature and future generations. That is why the topic of sustainability is deeply anchored in the company. One example of this is the concept of Human Centered Building Automation (HCBA). HCBA focuses on people and not on the building. The aim is to install only as much building technology as necessary, to activate effective energy-saving potential and to make the building stock sustainable and fit for the future. But HCBA is only one measure of many. Find out more here!

To achieve this, we pull out all the stops and leave no aspect of the product life cycle unturned: Starting with the suppliers and the transport routes, to the components and the materials used, to the production processes, to the packaging and finally the recycling. And this is exactly what it looks like.
