Sustainability and CSR

We act with <strong>Corporate Social Responsibility</strong> for the environment. We economize our use of resources and act in an environmentally friendly manner. With energy-efficient drive systems, we support the industry in reducing CO<sub>2</sub> emissions.

Principles of Responsibility Influence Our Business Activities

As a globally active company, we assume our responsibility locally on site and also in our business areas all around the world. We and our employees want to improve continuously, whether in occupational safety or in optimization of procedures with our suppliers. Economic, profit-oriented development and environmental protection and energy savings are not understood as conflicting interests but rather a common goal.

Our sustainability work is a promise to our customers, to the public and to the employees of the NORD DRIVESYSTEMS Group, to consequently behave in an ecological, economic and socially responsible manner.
