The three pillars of our sustainability strategy
Ecological responsibility
It is our goal to create innovative solutions for minimizing the causes of climate change. In doing so, we consider both our own ecological footprint and the footprints of our suppliers and customers. We integrate concrete measures into our business strategy and strive to fight climate change step by step.

- We monitor our energy consumption, including planned values and actual values.
- If possible, our services are rendered remotely.
- Our vehicle fleet is gradually replaced with electrical cars.
- We support the use of public transport for business travels.
