Our goal is defined.

We ensure a liveable future for ourselves and future generations.

To this end, we act in an ecologically, socially and economically responsible manner.

Ecological sustainability

We want to preserve, protect and restore natural resources and ecosystems.

 

Social sustainability

We want to promote justice, equal opportunities, social integration and social well-being.

Economic sustainability

We want to create a stable and fair economy. It should be profitable in the long term and meet the needs of current and future generations.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) comprise 17 objectives adopted by the United Nations in 2015.

They aim to promote sustainable development worldwide by 2030. Together with the expectations of all stakeholders at ECO Schulte, they form the foundation of our fi elds of action in sustainability.

Sustainability starts with transparency. Our 2023 emissions are divided into Scope 1, 2, and 3 – the categories of greenhouse gas emissions directly and indirectly caused by ECO Schulte's activities.

We are thinking about tomorrow today: With clear reduction targets and ambitious measures, we are shaping a more climate-friendly future.

  • Operational facilities
  • Company vehicles
  • Processes

Scope 2

Purchased electricity, steam, heat, and cooling for energy consumption

Scope 3

  • Commuting of employees
  • Business trips
  • Operational waste
  • Transport and distribution
  • Fuels for energy generation
  • Capital goods
  • Purchased goods and services
  • Investments and concessions

  • Waste treatment, use, and processing of sold products

We are gradually introducing sustainable packaging for our door closers and security fittings. Other product areas will follow.

The new packaging is completely plastic-free and consists exclusively of unbleached material without gloss or color printing.

Our journey towards greater sustainability has already brought many milestones. From resource-saving materials to energy-efficient processes – here, we showcase what we have already successfully implemented. Together, we build on these advancements.
