Eco-Lighthouse – Proof of Our Structured Environmental Efforts

For us, sustainability isn't just a word—it's an integral part of our daily operations. Our Eco-Lighthouse certification means that we have a well-established environmental management system that guides our climate and environmental efforts and drives continuous improvement.

The certification imposes strict and specific requirements on us in the areas of workplace safety, waste management and recycling, energy consumption, procurement of materials, and transportation solutions (such as our electric service vehicles). Every year, we report our results in a transparent climate report to ensure that we are constantly moving in the right direction and identifying new areas for improvement. In addition to our internal environmental efforts, we help our customers reduce their own carbon footprint every day by installing energy-efficient heating systems and eco-friendly heat pumps.
