Sustainability

A hand is holding a glass sphere containing a tree and a map of the world, surrounded by symbols representing environmental protection, renewable energy, and sustainable development.

We are committed to the goal of a research institute that is internationally competitive in global markets. This also implies the societal responsibility to protect and preserve our natural resources.

Our measures:

  • We observe and comply with the relevant laws, regulations and official requirements.
  • We use resources such as electricity, heat, technical gases and other raw materials rationally within the framework of operational environmental protection.
  • We ensure the responsible handling of hazardous substances.
  • We reduce the emission of pollutants into the environment to a minimum.
  • We promote environmental awareness among our employees through training and motivation.
  • We regularly inform members of the institute and the interested public.

Through our DNK Sustainability Statement (in German language), we demonstrate our commitment to sustainable business practices. Based on the German Sustainability Code, we report on our goals, measures, and progress in the environmental, social, and corporate governance areas.
