We are a partner of the Blue Competence sustainability initiative
Blue Competence (www.bluecompetence.net) is an initiative of the VDMA (www.vdma.org) to promote sustainability in the mechanical and plant engineering industry, but also to provide sustainable solutions for the industry. With our partnership, we commit ourselves to adhere to the 12 sustainability guidelines of the mechanical and plant engineering industry (www.bluecompetence.net/about).
The partners of the Blue Competence initiative pursue common goals:
- Shaping the world with technology – even the day after tomorrow.
The challenges posed by the major megatrends of our time can only be mastered with cutting-edge technology and technical innovations. Globalization, urbanization, mobility and an ageing society are tasks for which mechanical and plant engineering already has the right solutions today, be it in energy and air conditioning technology, electromobility, water supply and wastewater disposal, building technology or medical technology. Mechanical engineering will continue to contribute to a sustainable quality of life in the future. - Achieving more with fewer resources.
The world's population is growing, but natural resources are not. To ensure that we can all live in dignity on earth in the future, we must use what we have sparingly. This can be achieved by increasing efficiency – and this has been a core competence of mechanical and plant engineering for decades. Energy is a good example of just how much is possible. Energy demand is increasing worldwide. The increase can be slowed down with innovative technology – by saving energy in drives, pumps and production processes. - Taking responsibility.
Medium-sized companies characterize mechanical and plant engineering. Many have been in family hands for generations. This has given rise to a social tradition. And an ecological and cultural commitment to the location. We rely on respectful treatment of employees and trusting cooperation with our customers and suppliers worldwide. - Being a role model.
With every new development, mechanical and plant engineering demonstrates that sustainability also increases profitability. Resource efficiency and cost efficiency are two sides of the same coin. This realization also applies to other industries and other regions of the world. Blue Competence wants to show that it is not only good, but also useful to act sustainably.
