Boegger is a leading European company that always acts in accordance with the principles of sustainability: environmental protection is an integral part of Boegger corporate policy. Wherever technically possible, we minimise the environmental impact of the manufacture and life-cycle of our products and are continuously improving the environmental performance of our company by implementing the appropriate environmental goals and programmes. Conscientious compliance with all environmentally relevant legal requirements is at the heart of our corporate policy.
Our corporate philosophy is to take not only economic issues, but also social and ecological aspects into account in all decision-making and development processes. We are fully aware of our responsibility towards future generations and firmly committed to conserving our resources.
Our employees are continuously reminded of their personal responsibility in the safety-related execution of their activities.
Sustainability Is Important to Us
With new products and production processes, we take the requirements of environmental protection into account as early as the development phase. Already during the planning of production processes and the installation and operation of our technical facilities, we strive to use only the best available technology. Furthermore, we use all possibilities to save energy and raw materials, to avoid, reduce or recycle pollutants and noise emissions as well as waste.
It is a matter of course for us to comply with the legal regulations and other environmental interests of the interested parties as well as the binding obligations to environmental protection and, where possible, to exceed them.
Our company mission statement describes what drives us, what makes us what we are and what is important to us: our motivation, our goals, and the principles that determine our actions.
Boegger encourages and empowers its employees to take responsibility for their own performance. This empowerment of our employees and recognition of their abilities and performance have made Boegger what it is today.

We carry out regular ecological assessments and implement corrective measures to ensure that we achieve the desired environmental protection targets. A yearly internal audit is conducted to assess the company’s impact on the environment, environmental performance and environmental targets. The results and recommendations for action are verified and monitored by independent environmental experts.
Special mention of the employees who receive regular training in environmental issues is also particularly important, as they play a key role in corporate environmental protection. They contribute actively and directly to environmental conservation at the respective production sites.
The company also continuously invests in measures aimed at improving energy efficiency and conserving resources. This is a crucial prerequisite for ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 accreditation of our environmental management system, which is rigorously applied across the entire company.
