Sustainability is a strategic focus area for our company. We are currently implementing measures to reduce our energy consumption and emissions. We are optimising selected processes in terms of energy efficiency and resource use, particularly in production and logistics.
Our production hall at our Hagen site is equipped with a high-performance photovoltaic system. With an annual energy output of around 310 MWh, we are reducing our reliance on externally sourced electricity and achieving CO₂ savings of around 145 tonnes per year.
In our production process, we rely on LED light sources and state-of-the-art machinery. Smart control technologies help us to operate the production facilities in line with demand and to detect machine downtime. In this way, we aim to use energy and resources as efficiently as possible.
In order to protect our employees and the environment, our production uses high-performance extraction systems with electrostatic filters (99% separation efficiency). Furthermore, silencers fitted on the extraction systems and noise-protection cages installed around the cold forming machines provide reduced noise-pollution levels for both people and the environment.
At our headquarters in Hagen, we develop and manufacture our products with streamlined decision-making processes and rigorous quality control. By manufacturing locally, we minimise transport distances and support the local economy.
When designing our packaging, we ensure the efficient use of materials and a well-thought-out design featuring clear colour coding and self-explanatory pictograms, which ensure easy product identification and handling.
With our own charging points at our Hagen site and a steadily growing fleet of electric vehicles, we are investing in electric mobility solutions for day-to-day business operations.
Our photovoltaic system, installed using a modern flat-roof mounting system, harnesses the available solar energy to generate our own electricity. This enables us to save around 145 tonnes of CO₂ annually and invest in on-site electricity generation at our site.
The video shows our production hall from a bird’s-eye view, as well as how we use solar energy to generate our own electricity at our site.
We are constantly working to incorporate environmental, social and economic considerations into our business processes. Our focus is on reducing energy-related CO₂ emissions. Key guidelines in this regard include EcoVadis, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and our own carbon footprint.
We track our company's emission sources in order to set specific reduction targets and achieve long-lasting reductions in our CO₂ emissions.
We use EcoVadis to have our sustainability performance evaluated externally and to implement targeted improvements in the areas of the environment, ethics, labour standards and the supply chain.
By regularly reporting our product data on the EU CBAM portal, we ensure that our emissions are recorded transparently and that EU regulations on the CO2 border adjustment are complied with.
CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism) is the EU’s carbon border adjustment mechanism. It requires importers to purchase carbon allowances for carbon-intensive goods such as steel or aluminium. The aim is to create a level playing field between EU producers and imports and to ensure transparency regarding carbon emissions across global supply chains.
The CBAM was introduced to avoid distortions of competition caused by differing climate standards and to prevent so-called ‘carbon leakage’. At the same time, the EU is thereby providing a clear incentive for more sustainable production processes worldwide and strengthening climate protection beyond its own borders.
Since January 2026, the CBAM has been mandatory for certain carbon-intensive imported goods. These include, in particular, steel, stainless steel and aluminium. Since then, companies have been required to purchase CO₂ allowances for such imports and to comply with extensive reporting requirements.
For you, CBAM means, above all, greater security and transparency. You receive products that comply with the law without having to deal with complex documentation or red tape yourself. At the same time, you benefit from supply chains that are easy to budget for and greater planning certainty.
The compensation levy arises from the mandatory CO₂ allowances and the administrative costs involved in complying with legal requirements. These costs are imposed by the government and are passed on transparently to ensure a legally compliant and sustainable supply chain.
No. CBAM is an EU-wide legal framework that applies to all market participants. Eurotec implements these requirements and passes on the resulting costs and obligations transparently – without any discretion in the fundamental implementation process.
