ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY RESOURCE USAGE
People influence the climate as consumers and producers of goods. The
UN world climate report describes this influence and warns of the consequences.
One important influencing factor on the climate is energy consumption.
In addition, the availability of energy is a considerable influencing factor
in being able to continue with our present lifestyle.
Its importance is increasing, as investors and banks will ask companies
more probing questions in future about their climate and energy
consumption strategies than they do today.
WE ARE TAKING STEPS – to prevent harm to the environment.
- Introduction of an environmental management system
and pursuit of environmental targets and programmes - Preparation of coolants
- In-house generation of the nitrogen requirement
- Technical development takes place in modern laboratories
with high standards in environmental protection and health and safety. - Substituting lead for molybdenum and manganese sulphide
