Sustainability

Our operations

We save energy, reduce plastics, minimize emissions and use cleaner energy wherever possible.

We constantly look for opportunities to develop processes that save resources. In every new investment, sustainability aspects are an obligatory parameter

We want to actively reduce our CO2 emissions and implement sustainable farming methods. The priorities are quite different from country to country and depend on local circumstances and also legislation as you can imagine.

The important message is that everyone can contribute to making our operations more sustainable every day. The right mindset is the key here.
