The people of the Harz Mountains have always been close to nature, because they did not want to deprive themselves of the very foundation of their economy.<\/strong> As early as the 15th century, trees were planted to provide wood\u2014a raw material for mining and smelting\u2014for future generations. So even back then, people were already managing their resources in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way, long before the word \u201csustainable\u201d was on everyone\u2019s lips.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

June 2026 – EcoVadis Silver<\/h4>

In June 2026, following on from 2025, we were once again awarded an EcoVadis Silver medal, meaning we remain among the top 15\u202f% of companies assessed worldwide.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

June 2025 – T\u00dcV Audit<\/h4>

Another Successful Recertification According to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and DIN EN ISO 14001:2015<\/p>

<\/div>

May 2025 – EcoVadis Silver<\/h4>

In May 2025, our ongoing commitment to sustainable practices was recognized <\/strong>with the EcoVadis Silver Medal <\/strong>. This achievement is a testament to our efforts in the areas of the environment, labor and human rights, business ethics, and sustainable procurement.<\/strong> <\/p>

\"\"<\/h4>

July 2<\/strong>024 – T\u00dcV Audit<\/strong><\/p>

Renewed Successful Certification to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and DIN EN ISO 14001:2015<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

April 2024 – EcoVadis Bronze <\/strong>EcoVadis assesses and systematically evaluates companies’ sustainable practices in the key areas of the environment, labor and human rights, sustainable procurement, and corporate ethics.<\/p>

In April 2024, we earned the bronze medal, placing us among the top 35% of the companies evaluated. We are proud that our commitment to sustainability has been recognized in this way.<\/strong><\/h5>

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>

April 2024 – Responsible Care<\/strong>
As a member of the German Chemical Industry Association (VCI), it was only natural for us to sign the Responsible Care Initiative\u2019s pledge. This signature was a formality, because we have always worked according to these principles. <\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

2022 – Solar Power System<\/strong>
After a long wait for delivery, we were able to put our 118 modules, with a peak output of 44 kW, into operation, thereby covering a large portion of our energy needs.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

2021 – Vehicle Fleet<\/strong>The first electric car has been added to our vehicle fleet.<\/span><\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

2018 – Green Electricity<\/strong>
We are switching our entire operation to green electricity and installing a wallbox for charging electric cars.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Operating in an Environmentally Friendly and Certified Manner<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Today, we are committed to our location on the edge of the Harz Nature Park, operate in an environmentally friendly manner, and have been certified to DIN EN ISO 14001 since 1998.<\/p>\n

Water-based products account for 60% of the total volume, and this trend continues to rise. Technologies used in non-toxic paints for children’s toys are also applied to “regular” paints in order to continuously improve their environmental performance.<\/p>\n

“Quality is when the customer comes back\u2014not the product”<\/em>… and we hope you’ll come back again! That’s why we’re constantly working to improve our paints and coatings so that you can get the best possible solution.<\/p>\n

Our quality management system has been certified to DIN EN ISO 9001 since 1997 (Certificate Register No. 08 100 1790 issued by T\u00dcV CERT, the certification body of T\u00dcV Nord CERT GmbH & Co. KG).<\/p>\n

Large companies regularly rate us as “A-level suppliers.” Since 2003, environmental and quality management have been integrated into a single certified system (IMS).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
