How do we make more and more
out of less and less?
Questions that drive us.

In order to consistently improve sustainability performance across all production sites, the Jagenberg Group pursues a systematic approach to monitoring and managing the emissions generated by its business activities. The basis for our “Strategic Emission Steering” concept is a transparent assessment of the emissions generated by business processes. Each production site has an individual emission profile based on consumption data, making it possible to devise targeted measures with optimal efficiency. Key indicators are electricity and gas consumption, fuel consumed by company vehicles, water use, the amount of waste generated, and carbon emissions associated with travel.

As a group of companies, we are committed to our environmental responsibility when pursuing our business activities at our various locations around the world.
