Responsible Use<br />
of Resources<br />
Environmental management plays a central<br />
role for us – also because many resource<br />
aspects are closely linked to our business<br />
activities. Our sustainability strategy<br />
focuses on climate protection, energy,<br />
and materials.<br />

Managing our environmental impact<br />
At Schmitz Cargobull, we work on key environmental issues<br />
throughout our production network. All major production<br />
sites are successively implementing environmental management<br />
certification to ISO 14001. In addition, a certified<br />
energy management system in accordance with ISO 50001<br />
has been in place at all German production sites (Altenberge,<br />
Vreden, and Gotha) and our administrative offices in<br />
Horstmar since 2014.<br />
The energy and environmental management officers are<br />
appointed at the respective sites and are centrally managed<br />
to ensure a standardised approach. The officers at the sites<br />
contribute to achieving the goals expressed in the sustainability<br />
strategy through their systematic approach within<br />
the framework of the management systems. Monthly coordination<br />
ensures that measures are defined among all of the<br />
sites which then enable the goals to be achieved.<br />
