AXOR SUSTAINABILITY
Climate neutrality* since 2022 —
After successfully converting its plant in Schiltach, Germany, to green electricity, Hansgrohe did the same with all of its international production sites at the beginning of 2022. This reduces CO 2 emissions by more than 26,000 tons annually. Subsequent energy efficiency analyses at Hansgrohe’s production plants in France, China and Germany have identified further potential sustainability measures such as:
— combined heat and power plants and photovoltaics — peak load and solar irradiation planning
In its facility in Shanghai, AXOR has already begun to utilize heat pump technology on the heating system for the electroplating baths.
All international production plants have also set their own aspirational sustainability targets for water, waste and energy.
As a result of these efforts, all Hansgrohe Group plants worldwide have been climate neutral* since 2022.
*Climate neutrality refers to greenhouse gas emissions from Scope 1 and 2 (direct emissions and energy consumed at the sites; Scope 3 emissions were excluded) according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Wherever possible, the Hansgrohe Group actively reduces these emissions. The remaining emissions are offset through recognized, certified climate protection projects. Further information on these climate protection projects can be found at https://www.hansgrohe-group.com/en/about-us/sustainability.
UN Sustainability goals —
