Challenge.
As an opportunity.
We view sustainability as an opportunity to position ourselves today – as a company and as an employer – for the challenges of tomorrow. How? Learn more about our mission: 8030. Future. Now.
Sustainability.
As a guiding principle.
Political targets may be under review – but at Schlamann, we stand firmly by our goal: to generate 80% of our energy needs sustainably, on-site and in-house by 2030. Join us on the path to achieving it.
FAQ – 8030. Future. Now.
Learn more about our mission and efforts in our Frequently Asked Questions section.
- What exactly is the "8030. Future. Now." initiative?
We understand the responsibility that energy-intensive industries like ours carry. Those who continue to rely on finite, combustible energy sources have likely missed both the urgency of the moment and the vast potential of an energy transformation towards alternative, sustainable solutions. This isn’t about politics – it’s about facts. By generating our own renewable energy, we reduce our dependence on external suppliers, actively cut operating costs, secure the future of our company and our employees, and open up new areas of business along the way.
- Why is the transformation so important for Schlamann?
Because we recognise that the energy transition – and sustainability goals in general – can’t be achieved by government plans alone. Every company has a responsibility, and we’re ready to shoulder ours. We are doing so with conviction and the confidence that it’s the right path forward.
- What specific goals is Schlamann pursuing with the programme?
On the one hand, we recognise our environmental responsibility – to society and to future generations. But the economic benefits and resulting competitive edge are just as important. This way, we remain an attractive employer and building materials supplier AND make a meaningful contribution to the environment.
- What is Schlamann actually doing?
When it comes to sustainability, we’re not here to watch from the sidelines – we’re getting stuck in. Over the coming years, we’re investing a high six-figure sum in expanding our wind and solar energy capacity. We’re also putting serious effort into energy storage, upgrading our vehicle fleet and electrifying the steam generation process used in production. You can find the full details in the Measures section.
Diversity.
