ILO Convention 155: Occupational Safety and Health

Occupational health and safety is an important issue for us. We ensure a safe and healthy working environment by complying with the laws and regulations on health and safety at work. In particular, managers are required to provide appropriate procedures and protective measures to ensure health and safety at work. The risk of accidents and occupational diseases must be reduced to a minimum.

Compliance with the above criteria is to be verified by recognized certification companies. Before the start of a business relationship and during the corresponding contract period, this must be fully demonstrated.

Sustainability and environmental protection

At VOSSKO, we consider sustainability, environmental protection and energy efficiency to be central pillars of our corporate philosophy and operational practice. Our commitment in these areas goes far beyond the mere fulfillment of legal requirements. We strive for responsible use and procurement of natural resources such as water, energy, materials and land. This holistic approach begins with the selection of our raw materials and extends over the entire life cycle of our products. Our goal is to continuously reduce the ecological footprint of our production and services through efficient processes and innovative technologies.

Social well-being

An important element of our sustainability strategy is to promote the social well-being of our home community. We achieve this by creating jobs, paying taxes and making active contributions to the community. Our support is reflected in monetary donations and donations in kind to local institutions, as well as in the sponsoring of associations and institutions. These measures help to strengthen the local economy and social cohesion.

Reducing resource consumption

VOSSKO has implemented a state-of-the-art energy management system according to DIN EN ISO 50001. This system enables detailed analyses of energy flows in the company and enables an evaluation of the efficiency of particularly energy-intensive plants and activities. Another central aspect of our sustainability efforts is the reduction of CO2 emissions from our production processes. We have developed comprehensive measures to increase energy efficiency and reduce emissions. This includes investing in advanced technologies and implementing energy-saving measures in all areas. One example of how we conserve resources is our heat recovery system. This innovative system uses the waste heat from our cold store to heat our office buildings.

Through this efficient use of energy, we are setting new standards in the area of sustainable business management and demonstrating our commitment to ecological responsibility. Our comprehensive strategy and our continuous pursuit of improvement in these areas reflect our deep commitment to making a positive and lasting impact on our environment and society. At VOSSKO, we are determined to continue to make every possible effort to make the world a better place. We are convinced that through decisive action and innovative thinking, sustainable solutions arise that combine both.
