Company & Sinks

In 2020 we set out on the path to even more sustainability with SINK GREEN and a range of other measures. Here you can see some examples of how the story of SINK GREEN shapes our reality.

For instance, we have managed to achieve carbon neutrality for our company and all of our sinks.


 

HOW? In four phases:

  1. Calculating CO₂: Together with a strong partner, we calculated our carbon footprint in detail according to the GHG Protocol. This includes all emissions.
     
  2. Reducing emissions: We are constantly working on reducing our carbon footprint – measures include:​ using 100% green electricity from hydropower​, recycling water within the company​, increasing biodiversity in the factory grounds, and the CRISTADUR® Green Line and its closed cycle.
     
  3. Offsetting CO₂: We offset all unavoidable emissions through internationally recognised climate protection projects from the ClimatePartner portfolio. 
     
  4. Carbon neutral label: We are a carbon neutral company and all our sinks are carbon neutral. Our customers can view our ClimatePartner label with ID number here: climatepartner.com/16431-2208-1001  to see where and how carbon offsetting took place.

our attitude

 

The bold one


Excellent craftsmanship, regional production, passion for the product and vital creativity result in an extraordinary product range that speaks for itself.

 

Passionate

We believe in what we do. We work with heart and soul every day to create the unusual.

We find solutions to problems. We act pragmatically, effectively and with the experience of a responsible company with a long history. 
 

Creative

We are not only inventive when it comes to developing our products. We are just as unique and creative in designing our communication presence.
 

OUR PATH to a
sustainable FUTURE 

 

We have already reached some important milestones along
 the way - like halving our water consumption and 
implementing our ambitious energy management system, which 
is ISO 50001 certified.  

But we never stand still. 
We purchase 100% green electricity with proof of origin. 
Further steps? Coming soon!

SINK GREEN is our path and our goal - as well as 
the drive for innovative technologies, such as the 
CRISTADUR® Green Line.
