A few examples of our commitment to sustainability
CO² savings in production
By switching off many machines on non-working days, around 2.58 MWh can be saved. This corresponds to a CO² saving of 580,000 kg per year and is equal to the CO² emissions of 100 long-haul flights from Düsseldorf to Sydney covering a distance of 16,580 km.
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 CO² emissions and creates a comfortable climate for our staff.
Separation of recyclables and waste
At Meusburger, all waste is meticulously separated into recyclables and residual waste, 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.
Charging station for electric bikes
Employees who ride their electric bikes to work make a great contribution to the environment and can charge their bikes for free at one of our two charging stations. Our chargers are up to two times faster than standard home chargers and keep our employees on the go.
Biking initiative
Every year, Meusburger takes part in the biking contest organised by the state of Vorarlberg. It encourages our staff to improve their health and at the same time protect the environment by using their bikes as much as possible. Further information
Staff transportation
41 minibuses are provided for our staff for travelling to work every day. Meusburger takes part in the klima:aktiv mobil project making an active contribution to environment and climate protection.
A habitat for bees
The bee is one of the most important organisms in our ecosystem. That’s why we helped young beekeeper Florian Faißt acquire his eight beehives, each with around 50,000 bees, and house them at our production site in Lingenau. The bees have plenty of blossoms in the flower meadow around the building and this allows us to make an active contribution to the preservation of biodiversity.
