RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR RESOURCES

Focus on sustainability: innovative seating systems with green steel and lightweight construction.

As a company specialising in the manufacture of seats, we have a particular responsibility for the sustainable use of raw materials. We are continuously optimising our processes and will use ‘green steel’, a more environmentally friendly alternative to conventional steel, for the production of our products in the future. We are also focussing on lightweight components that not only require fewer raw materials, but are also often made from recyclable materials. Thanks to their low weight, less energy is consumed during transport, which reduces CO2 emissions. Our durable seating systems have a modular design and can be easily replaced if necessary.

For the AUNDE Group, sustainability is a priority at all levels of the corporation.

Rolf A. Königs, CEO AUNDE Group Worldwide
