SSP - Sustainability and Environmental Awareness

Ecology

Climate change is a global challenge that requires immediate attention. For this reason, we continuously assess our decisions and processes to comply with environmental management standards according to ISO 14001:2015. We educate our employees on sustainability and resource conservation. Thanks to our photovoltaic system, we meet our entire energy demand with green solar power. We minimize the emission of pollutants and ensure that all our products are recyclable after use.

Social

We offer our employees a wide range of training and development opportunities, including workshops. We also see it as our responsibility to provide traineeships each year, giving talented young individuals the opportunity to develop into skilled and capable professionals. For us, it is important to offer our employees flexible working hours.

Economics

We are aware of our ecological responsibility. At SSP, every process is evaluated for sustainability, including process efficiency, energy consumption, and waste costs. This begins with product development, extends to the qualification of our supplier, and includes a critical review of our internat processes.

Reduced Energy Consumption:

• Retrofitting all lights with LED
• Lighting controlled by timer switch
• Automatic shutdown of lights during breaks and after working hours

Increased use of renewable energy:

• 100% self-sufficiency through photovoltaic energy
• Output from our own photovoltaic system

Reduced heat consumption:

• RoRoll-up doors and entrance doors close automatically

Reduced Water Consumption:

• All faucets equipped with sensors

Reduced fuel consumption:

• A portion of the company vehicles are hybrid cars

Minimized paper consumption:

• Introduction of a document management system

In the product development chain, it is crucial to focus on low energy costs and minimal waste from the very beginning. We only use safe raw materials, and we are RoHS and REACH certified. These regulations ensure a high level of protection for human health and the environment. Thanks to innovative ideas and products, we are already saving many resources at the point of use. With the help of Wireless Safety Technology our customers today save meters of cable, thereby conserving important resources.

When selecting and qualifying our suppliers, we already consider their sustainability practices. Many of our suppliers source their energy for raw material production from renewable sources such as solar power and hydrogen. Additionally, our aluminum profiles are 100% recyclable. Packaging materials are either reused for our packaging and shipping or properly recycled.

Resource-efficient production of our products is a priority for us, strengthening our value chain. We optimize our processes to ensure they harmonize perfectly, enabling us to operate much more efficiently.

Printed materials are produced on certified FSC recycled paper and paper certified with the EU Ecolabel. Some even carry the "Blauer Engel" seal. In our office spaces, we largely refrain from printing content and instead provide it digitally.
