Our organisational structure allows that all the different activities and information will be processed with attendance to the Environmental Aspects and the relevant legal requirements.

This special organizational orientation in the direction of environmental aspects is either integrated in the existing organizational structure or it is added. In this context we would like to remind you that our organization received the DIN EN ISO 9001-Certificate in 1996.

Hereby, the determination of responsibilities is a basic instrument. The adherence to them is assured by the environmental management representative. The formal determination and basis documentation for the supplementary procedures are described in the Environment Manual.

Commencing with the initial environmental audit in 1997, environmental objectives will be defined regularly in order to ensure continual improvement of the environmental performance.

The scope of the environmental objectives is determined by the environmental policy. In order for the objectives to be implemented, an environment program is created. Our environmental management system and the continual implementation of the objectives is ascertained by means of the environment audit, the environmental auditing cycle being completed after three years at the latest.
All the different organizational segments have to be audited during that period of time.

If these regular environmental audits and management reviews which are carried out by the management result in the determination of deviations, the formulation of corresponding corrective measures and the implementation of the same are ascertained by the inclusion in the environment program. With this system, we achieve a continuous improvement process with regard to our operational as well as product related environmental protection.

With the environment declaration, the effects on our environment are made known to the general public.
