Environment

We accept responsilbility

The protection of the environment and health and safety are strategic goals of the corporate vision. We address these goals responsibly and professionally with above-average safety standards and environmental protection standards. Environmentally-friendly processes and roll forming machines are the result.

Emissions

Extensive avoidance of emissions

• Compliance with the 31st Bundesimmissionsschutzverordnung (Federal imission control ordinance), e.g. by using solvent-free degreasing in the paint shop
• Compliance with ECO-SAFE requirements by means of a modern vehicle fleet with as a minimum EURO-4 vehicles

Energy efficiency

Environmentally-friendly usage of energy

• The usage of modern heating systems provides an energy saving of 30% and a reduction in the NOx and CO emissions of 86%
• New assembly building surpasses all current regulations on thermal insulation
• No air-conditioning in any offices
• Continuous improvement of energy efficiency by means of construction measures, e.g. insulated windows, fast roller doors to avoid the loss of heat and insulation of all heating pipes
• Heat recovery from compressed air system for heating hot water
• Regular consumption check on gas, electricity and water to identify above-average consumption

Personnel

Omnipresent protection of the environment

• The protection of the environment is regulated by company agreements, work instructions and by the Dreistern manual on health and safety and the protection of the environment (ASUS)
• Compliance with these regulations is checked during internal audits
• Professional, external advice safeguards the high standard of our environment management
• The protection of the environment is part of the DREISTERN training plan
• DREISTERN has nominated a waste officer.
