Sustainability within the INDULOR Group.

"Sustainable practices are practices that meet the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."Brundtland Report 1987

Our sustainability practices are based on the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The three components - economical, environmental, and social performance- are given equal importance at the macroeconomic and societal level,s as well as at the global and corporate levels.

 

Economic Dimension

For us, economic performance is not an end in itself: it means creating and maintaining stable material foundations. This also includes know-how and experience in order to manufacture high-quality products. Only long-term stability secures the economic foundations of our company and, in this way, the livelihoods of our employees. Constant innovation, challenges of a fair competition and a long-term customer orientation are part of responsible business for us. Regional networking (suppliers, craftsmen, services such as transportation, etc.) is an important factor.

 

Environmental Dimension

Sustainability means dealing responsibly with the environment.

We meet global ecological requirements and pay attention to the responsible use of resources such as raw materials and energy. We regularly review existing supply chains and strive to ensure that our suppliers and customers operate in a sustainable manner. This also includes so-called "swap" transactions to avoid unnecessary transport routes.

Renewable raw materials are used where they are available and where possible. For all raw materials, we strive to generate an optimum yield in order to avoid waste as far as possible. We strive to eliminate substances that are hazardous to the environment and health and manufacture almost exclusively water-based products. Furthermore, we are increasing the use of renewable energy (solar power). The recovery and reuse of waste heat has been standard practice for many years. In this way, we are achieving a growing proportion of environmentally and climate-friendly conditions.

 

Social Dimension

We are committed to the principles of legality, ethics, and our code of values. This includes corporate responsibility towards people and the environment, i.e., fair, loyal, and legally compliant dealings with our employees and, of course, with customers and business partners. Any unlawful influences (up to and including corruption) to achieve financial advantages are strictly rejected. Equality and diversity form an indispensable component of our personnel structure and are part of our overall social responsibility. We attach the greatest possible importance to occupational safety. All these building blocks contribute to further developing Indulor as an employer and thus to remaining attractive especially for the next generation of workers.

Our standards and processes are assessed and certified by our customers and through regular external audits for DIN EN ISO 9001 and 50001.
