Technical innovation for a sustainable future
In a world which is becoming increasingly more complex and brings with it new challenges, our sustainability promise remains key at Körber: “Our activities enable a better life for current and future generations.”
We keep our word and take action. Thanks to the unfailing dedication of our employees, we successfully remained steadfast on this course again in 2024. Our EcoVadis Gold Medal and the positive, validating in-house audit of our CO₂e emissions reduction path in line with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) are just two great examples which affirm our actions and inspire us to stay passionately and responsibly committed to this approach over the coming years.
“We keep our word! Together, we have once again made great progress in sustainability this year. Being awarded EcoVadis Gold and achieving significant CO₂e emission reductions demonstrate that we are on the right track to reaching our ambitious targets by 2040.”
Stephan Seifert, Chairman of the Group Executive Board of Körber AG
