Our environmental targets are supported by a Group-wide environmental management system designed in accordance with DIN ISO 14001. The system’s compliant integration into our Group regulations has been verified by an independent institute. In 2023, about 74% (previous year: about 78%) of our 258 environmentally relevant Group companies had an equivalent environmental management system based on this. The Sustainability and Environmental division is responsible for compliance with, and the further development of, Group-wide environmental management standards. In 2023, no significant fines or other penalties were issued to Group companies for environmental offenses.
