Environmental protection at Meusburger

A few examples of our commitment to sustainability.

Heat recovery

We do not waste any energy, but use the waste heat produced by our machinery and equipment for heating our plant.

Cooling energy optimisation system

We invest in highly efficient cooling systems on the rooftop of our production halls. This helps reduce the CO² emissions and creates an agreeable climate for our staff.

Separation of recyclables and waste

At Meusburger, all waste is meticulously separated into recyclables and residual waste, thus enabling environmentally sound recycling.

Filtering pollutants

To a large extent, our production process is pollutant-free. Any pollutants that do arise when processing steel are absorbed by means of suitable filtration devices.

Company bikes

Staff travelling to work by train may use these bicycles to cover the distance between the train station and the Meusburger plant.

E-bike charge point

Employees who ride to work with their E-bike, contributing to the protection of our environment, can charge their bike free of charge at two charge points. Here, the E-bike can charge up to twice as fast as when charging at home, and our employees stay mobile.

Biking contest

Every year, Meusburger takes part in the biking contest organised by the Federal State of Vorarlberg. It gives our staff the chance to improve their health and at the same time protect the environment by using their bikes as much as possible. Further information

Staff transportation

37 minibuses are provided for our staff for travelling to work every day. Meusburger takes part in the project klima:aktiv mobil making an active contribution to environment and climate protection. 

Product-specific

Corrosion protection

No corrosion protection is used on our stored raw material. With this, we avoid polluting air, water and soil in the immediate vicinity of our company grounds.

Oil mist

All our machinery and equipment is equipped with suction and filtration devices in order to keep the air clean.

Cutting fluids

With our comprehensive approach to optimising our centralised systems we have been able to greatly reduce our cutting fluid consumption over the last eight years. Our measurements show we have reduced our yearly cutting fluid waste by 82% and, at the same time, the amount of stabilizers we used decreased by 97%
