Corporate Sustainability

The protection of our climate is a challenge for humanity. Careful handling of resources and the reduction of harmful emissions are key elements of our corporate management.

Power generation and CO₂ emissions

FAULHABER has, for many years, worked constantly on achieving the goal of zero greenhouse gas emissions. In the Schönaich location, for example, a cogeneration unit was installed that produces power and heat and functions considerably more efficiently than standard heating systems. Photovoltaic systems for power generation were installed and expanded at many locations of the group of companies. The additional demand for power is (with the exception of a few locations) obtained from regenerative sources.

CO₂ emissions occur not only in production or in administration but also during business trips by car or by plane. The greenhouse gas emissions are computed based on consumption, and the corresponding quantity is compensated for elsewhere.

CO₂-neutral through compensation

With the non-profit organization atmosfair, FAULHABER has a partner who compensates unavoidable greenhouse gas emissions in a purposeful and deliberate manner. For every ton of emitted greenhouse gas, FAULHABER contributes financially to an atmosfair project for clean power from crop residues in India. This project enables small farmers to sell their previously worthless crop waste to a biomass power plant. This replaces fossil fuels with renewable energy sources, thereby avoiding CO₂ emissions.

Thanks to these measures, a milestone was reached: CO₂-neutral production. Since 2020, all production and development locations of FAULHABER Drive Systems worldwide have been producing CO₂-neutral.

Regular evaluation of measures

It is our declared goal and commitment to constantly improve our life-cycle assessment. The framework is provided by the requirements of ISO 14001, which are met by all production and development sites. In this regard, we regularly evaluate the state of our environmental management system. We examine the technical and organizational procedures and processes to identify possible weak points and take all necessary measures for avoiding harmful environmental impacts from our activities and products. Thanks to the responsible use of energy sources and raw materials as well as the reduction of environmental pollution through measures including the use of recyclable packaging, avoiding compressed air in production, or leasing bicycles for commuting, we make an important contribution to the protection of the environment and natural resources.

Solar energy

Since 2016, FAULHABER has been using the power of the sun to generate electricity at Schönaich. A monitor in FAULHABER’s reception area informs employees and guests about the system’s current performance data and the amount of electricity that has been fed in since commissioning. Beyond Schönaich, photovoltaic systems are also used for power generation at other FAULHABER sites around the world.

Waste recycling

Waste is produced in many different production steps. Through strict sorting within our production area, it has been possible to recycle this waste in the ideal case. By sorting the waste and thanks to the recycling possibilities now available, waste no longer has to be disposed of. Also, waste-to-energy has become less important in recent years, which means that it has been possible to recycle a large proportion of our waste.

Compliance with legal regulations concerning waste is repeatedly checked jointly with the disposal companies to ensure that all processes and procedures are up-to-date.

FAULHABER Award Factory of the year 2018

Repeated awards as "TOP100 Innovator", "Best Innovator" as well as "Factory of the Year 2018" underline the successful and sustainable innovation management of the FAULHABER company.

In the "Factory of the Year" competition, we claimed the top prize in the "Outstanding small-batch production" category for 2018. The jury was convinced above all by the continuous quest to improve processes, the strong automation and the synchronization across all production locations.

For the optimum drive solution comprising motor, gearhead, encoder, electronics and accessories, our customers have more than 25 million possible variations available. “Ten to twelve new products that have never been produced in their given form are created every day. In addition, nearly all employees are involved in the continuous improvement process: more than 2,000 improvement suggestions made by staff are implemented every year,” says Hubert Renner, Managing Director.

Data protection

The protection of personal data and how this data is handled is extremely important to us. We are committed to complying with nationally and internationally applicable data protection laws. They form an important basis for trustful business relationships and for cooperation within the company and the corporate group.
