Sustainability in focus. Marbach has launched a large sustainability project.

Managing Director Bernd Klenk: "Since the foundation of the Marbach company in 1923, we have coped with many challenges: inflation, war, recession, as well as the pandemic and procurement crisis. And yet, our company has always endured and today it is difficult to imagine the industry without it. We will strive to secure this continuity in the future as well."

We have been intensively engaged with the issue of sustainability for many years. It is an integral part of the company's philosophy. In the future, however, we will focus even more on the idea of sustainability in our business activities and has therefore started a large sustainability project.

Within the scope of this project, we have defined what sustainability means for us and how exactly we can make our contribution to a sustainable future. In this context, we not only deal with the ecological aspects of the topic of sustainability but also with the economic and social ones.

Klenk continues: "Sustainability means future for us: future for our company, future for following generations and future for our earth. In our first sustainability report, we show how we act as a company and what objectives we have set ourselves for the future."

However, the sustainability report is only one part of our sustainability project. In addition to our first environmental guideline, we have also recently published a new Code of Conduct. Furthermore, we have joined the UN Global Compact. This embraces the vision of a more inclusive and sustainable economy with the aim of initiating change processes in companies and strategically anchoring sustainability. By joining, we demonstrate our commitment to the ten sustainability principles of the United Nations. Further actions will follow.
