Energy and environmental policy

We comply with all regulations related to the environment and energy use.
The basis of our environmental and energy management system is the consequence of and compliance with all relevant legal instructions.

We manufacture our products with minimum pollution and maximum energyefficiency .
We develop, produce and sell automotive interior systems in such a way as to ensure a safe and environmentally friendly production process as well as safe use and careful disposal of waste. We strive for a minimum use of energy and resources in every production process. Our aim is to avoid emissions and waste in all production processes. Unavoidable production waste is recycled as far as possible or disposed of appropriately. We develop and manufacture our products with the aim of recycling complete materials at the end of their life cycle.

We talk about procurement and logistics that are in line with environmental protection.
In terms of integrated environmental protection, we purchase our raw, auxiliary and operating materials in accordance with ecological criteria, including energy efficiency, as far as possible. By continuously improving our purchasing and delivery logistics and optimizing the flow of materials and energy within the company, we continuously reduce the resulting environmental impacts. That is why we preferably choose regional suppliers to reduce fuel consumption and use returnable packaging wherever possible to avoid waste generation.
With appropriate measures, we try to convince our business partners to harmonize their environmental activities with ours and aim for environmental certification.

We train and encourage our employees and conduct open environmental communication.
To achieve our objectives, we encourage, train and motivate our employees through appropriate education and training so that they can carry out their tasks in line with our environmental objectives and policies.
We regularly inform our employees, customers and the general public about the status of our environmental and energy management system. The aim is open and honest communication as well as a cooperative dealing with administrative bodies and the public.

We continuously improve our environmental and energymanagement activities .
The objectives and success of our environmental activities, including compliance with all
environmental and energy use regulations, are regularly reviewed and evaluated both internally and
externally. By setting and implementing new, higher targets, we achieve continuous improvement of our
environmental and energy management system. We set annual environmental and energy targets
aimed at reducing our carbon footprint, resource consumption and waste generation. In this
way, we have significantly reduced our carbon footprint in recent years:                                                               

2019; 561.82 T CO2 eq. 2020; 394.5 T CO2 eq. 2021; 140.11 T CO2 eq. 2022; 21.68 T CO2 eq.
In addition to consuming all the energy from renewable sources, in 2023 we have installed a total of 506 photovoltaic panels
. With this action we will be able to be self-sufficient in 220KWh of energy
solar, which means an approximate annual saving of 20% of the energy we buy.
Also in order to be as environmentally sustainable as possible, but with sufficient thermal comfort,
has defined mandatory values for the thermostats of the air conditioning units.
We encourage the responsible use of water and electricity, through signs placed on all faucets,
discharges, switches, etc. .... in addition to ensuring water quality through annual analysis.
Naturally, we ensure that the necessary resources are allocated for the continuous improvement of our
management system.

Responsible management of waste and chemicals
We manage our waste and chemicals responsibly.
