“Responsible actions and decency are the basis of our success.” (Dr. Claus Thumm)
Sustainability and Social Responsibility
Sustainability from the Beginning!
We are firmly convinced that responsible actions and adherence to the highest ethical values are the only way to succeed. Commitment to decency and respectful treatment of our employees, customers, and suppliers are the basis and foundation of our daily efforts for the success of our company. As a typical Swabian family business, these principles have been followed quite naturally since the founding of our company and in the background. This is also an essential part of our corporate philosophy.
Sustainability
- All products are designed for durability: high-quality materials and superior manufacturing ensure a long service life for our garden features and urban furniture, provided they are installed correctly.
- We use modern machinery and compressors in our manufacturing processes.
- All garden lights are equipped with LED lighting.
- Thanks to the high level of in-house production, we minimize the need to transport goods to external service providers.
- Electricity generation: Our in-house PV system helps meet our electricity needs and reduces our reliance on electricity from the public grid.
- We regularly assess the environmental footprint of our products and production processes, striving for continuous optimization.
Social Responsibility and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
- Promoting diversity and inclusion in the workplace
- Raising employee awareness and providing training on sustainability and CSR topics
- Taking responsibility within the supply chain, focusing on regional partners
- Social responsibility towards our employees and their families
- Supporting regional associations and institutions
- Volunteering in the region
Durable products, greenery, and quality of public space
- Our metal garden products are designed for a long service life. At the end of their useful life, the metal components can be sent for recycling. Plastic parts are used only sparingly in our products.
- Tree planters and plant containers enable the introduction of greenery on paved surfaces and in locations where planting directly into the ground is not possible. Trees and plants can provide shade and contribute to local cooling through evaporation.
- Street furniture—such as benches, seating arrangements with planters, or water features—creates spaces for people to gather and spend time in cities and municipalities.
