Corporate Social Responsibility
Corporate Social Responsibility is a key focus for us. We strive to minimise the footprint we leave behind and keep the world liveable for future generations.
This also means that we continuously update our knowledge and strive to implement changes that contribute to improvements. Sustainability is reflected in various aspects and practices within our organisation.
Sustainable products
Long lifespan
Stainless Steel is not yet sustainably produced, but is itself a sustainable product with a long lifespan, provided it is used and deployed correctly.
Our sales department will always inquire about the application of a particular product, so that the right advice can be given. This way, we prevent materials from having a short lifespan and needing to be replaced earlier due to issues such as corrosion or other problems that may arise from incorrect usage.

Recycling
Produced materials
With our stainless steel outlet Inoxdeals.com, we contribute to the recycling of materials. Surplus batches and overproductions can indeed be perfectly used for a next application. Produced batches have already been made and by reusing them, no new CO2 emissions are produced.
For our customers, the outlet is certainly interesting, as we also offer different prices here. At Inoxdeals, you get more stainless steel for fewer euros and contribute to a better environment by reusing used materials.

Transport
We drive on HVO diesel
Why
Refuel with HVO100 diesel?
Both our trucks and cars run on HVO 100 sustainable diesel. A significant portion of the cars are already fully electric or hybrid. The electric cars can be charged at both of our company locations.
A reduction of CO₂ emissions up to 90%. This depends on the primary materials used during production throughout the entire process, from well to wheel. We can only refuel with HVO100, mix or alternate with other common diesel. Refuelling on the way does not pose any problems for our transport.
Reusing
Packaging materials and waste
All packaging materials that we receive are reused by us. Shelves, boxes, (cardboard) pallets, everything is usable to package products for shipping.
From the start of our company, we have purchased used boxes to package our orders. To package our orders properly, we also use BIO bubble wrap (100% recycled) and strapping made from recycled plastic.
Scrap originating from our operations is naturally collected and taken to a regular buyer for metal recycling.
All locations
LED lighting
Both business locations are equipped with LED lighting. LED has the great advantage that the light output is much higher with less consumption, resulting in savings on our energy costs. The lifespan of LED lighting is longer and the lamps produce less heat.
After working hours, all lighting is automatically switched off and spaces are not unnecessarily lit. This significantly saves on our energy costs; and of course, this is better for the environment.
Nitrogen
We generate ourselves
For operating both the tube laser and the two plate lasers, we use nitrogen in our customisation department. This nitrogen is produced by ourselves using nitrogen generators from Airtech Stickstoff GmbH.
Therefore, we always have nitrogen available and do not need to place orders with suppliers, who then have to arrange transport to deliver the nitrogen to us and emit CO2 during transport.

It's not just about sustainability.
We are also active in the region and support various local activities.
