Our partnerships, collaborations and awards

By engaging in carefully selected partnerships in the fields of sustainability, the environment and social issues, we are expanding our scope of influence and actively participating in the discourse on sustainable development. As a member of associations and networks such as Metaltechnology Austria (environmental committee), Energieeffizienznetzwerk Vorarlberg, TUN and respACT, we are making an active contribution to developing solutions to environmental and social challenges.

This commitment is also reflected in the awards we've received, including the VCÖ Mobility Award 2022, the Employer Branding Award DACH 2023 and the TRIGOS Award 2024.

Our contribution to the UN Sustainable Development Goals

The United Nations 2030 Agenda with its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serves as a binding framework for our sustainability measures. We are determined to play our part in building a sustainable future and have therefore chosen to focus our efforts on those SDGs where we, as a manufacturer and distributor of furniture fittings, can have the most impact.

As a global company, we are guided by theUnited Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
