Our environmental targets are supported by a Group-wide environmental management system no. 131 that is in accordance with DINISO 14001. The system’s compliant integration into our Group regulations has been verified by an independent institute. Based on this, 79 % of our 290 environment-related Group companies set up an appropriate environmental management system in 2020. This proportion decreased slightly. The Group Sustainability and Environmental Unit is responsible for complying with and further developing Group-wide environmental management standards. In 2020, no significant fines or other penalties were issued to Group companies for environmental offenses.
