The company and its employees are committed to the sustainable use of all resources. Naturally, we ensure healthy and safe working conditions, even beyond legal requirements.

 For example, we provide hearing protection free of charge. Production and administration operate as energy-efficiently as possible and reasonable. Measures include the use of LED lighting technology, including in deep-freeze warehouses, heat recovery, and intelligent heating and ventilation control. In administration, only FSC-certified paper is used, and all mail is sent CO₂-neutrally as a Deutsche Post GoGreen partner or by email.

In ice cream production, we use ammonia — NH₃, also known as R717 — one of the few refrigerants with a climate-neutral profile. It neither damages the ozone layer (ODP = 0) nor contributes to the greenhouse effect (GWP = 0). Due to its excellent thermodynamic properties, ammonia is highly energy-efficient and economical.  

We are committed to minimizing the environmental impact resulting from our activities and strive to keep environmental pollution as low as possible. Specific examples include optimizing order quantities and working with regional suppliers at our locations. We have not used palm fat in our products since 2009.

In At our operating sites, we have converted lighting to LEDs, installed improved insulation, and increased the share of green electricity to 50 percent. A large proportion of our packaging is made from recycled material and is optimized in terms of volume. In addition, we only ship full pallets to our customers and avoid empty truck journeys. 

Furthermore, our postal shipping and the production of our printed materials have also been climate-neutral since 2007. We are committed to minimizing the environmental impact resulting from our activities and continuously strive to improve the quality of our environment. Through these measures alone, we save approximately 916 tonnes of resources and an additional 155 tonnes of greenhouse gases every year.

Our comprehensive and in-depth environmental management system requires us to document resource and energy consumption, emissions, and waste in detail. Based on the figures collected, targets are set and measures are defined to improve the environmentally relevant activities of our company. Another step toward greater environmental responsibility is our certification under the EU Organic Regulation, which we have held since January 2021.
