ESG - Innovative and Sustainable
Promoting sustainable growth with forward-thinking and compassionate solutions.
We are actively shaping the future
Sustainability as a success factor: responsibly into the future
Our strategy for environmental, social, and entrepreneurial action
We do not see sustainability as a short-term trend but as an integral part of our daily decisions. Long-term economic success is only possible if our actions incorporate ecological and social responsibility. That is why we rely on a holistic strategy that combines economic goals with environmental protection. For us, it is not just about using resources efficiently or complying with legal requirements. Instead, we see sustainability as a crucial opportunity to bring about positive change and develop future-proof solutions. We are continuously improving our processes and actions by promoting environmentally friendly technologies and social initiatives.
As part of our ESG strategy, our transformation concept has been available since April 2024 and is currently being implemented. It was developed with Prof. Dr. Peter Heck from the Environmental Campus Birkenfeld. The measures include the installation of photovoltaic systems and modern heating systems to reduce energy consumption, the complete switch to e-mobility at all our locations, and comprehensive digitization projects to increase efficiency. In addition, we support projects for biodiversity to actively promote ecological diversity.
Our areas of focus for long-term success.
We have defined clear fields of action that combine ecological, social, and economic responsibility:
1. Environmental responsibility:
We are committed to actively supporting climate protection and continuously reducing our ecological footprint.
2. Social commitment:
Fairness, equal opportunities, and diversity are central to our corporate culture. We focus on equal rights and fair working conditions.
3. Sustainable corporate governance:
We rely on transparency and ethical principles and take a long-term view of our actions to enable sustainable value creation.
Together, we strive to achieve the objective of uniting economic prosperity and societal accountability to build a future worth experiencing.
Diversity and internationality: our path to becoming a strong, global company
Internationality and collaboration: the basis for our global success
Our international focus and diverse perspectives enhance our innovation and bolster our position in the global marketplace. We prioritize inclusion and intercultural competence to foster a work environment where equal opportunities and mutual respect are standard practice."

Environmental goals at TOPWERK:
Sustainable and efficient
At TOPWERK, environmental goals are at the center of our corporate strategy. We are taking clear measures for resource conservation and sustainability to protect our environment.
Energy efficiency in focus
We are continuously working to reduce our energy consumption and increase efficiency.
- Photovoltaic systems: Our PV system in Andernach produces around 97,100 kWh of electricity a year, which corresponds to 13% of our total electricity needs. This not only reduces our consumption of grid electricity but also our CO₂ emissions.
- Modern heating systems: We have significantly reduced the energy consumption of our heating systems by installing heat pumps and efficient boilers.
- E-mobility: Our locations are equipped with e-charging stations to promote the switch to electric mobility and contribute to sustainable mobility.
- Biodiversity projects: For example, by creating habitats for pollinating insects such as bees, we support local flora and fauna and promote a healthy ecological balance.
- Company bicycle: With the “company bicycle” project, we offer our employees an environmentally friendly alternative for commuting to work and thus support sustainable mobility.
- Digitalization: As part of comprehensive digitalization projects, we are continuously working on completing the transition to a paperless office and further increasing our efficiency.
Resource efficiency through optimization
The efficient use of resources is a central aspect of our strategy:
- Optimized production: We use modern technologies and optimized processes to reduce material consumption and minimize waste.
- Sustainable energy sources: We increasingly rely on renewable energies and want to expand the share of green electricity further.
Sustainability management and transparency
Our approach is based on clear goals and continuous review:
- KPIs: Regular energy consumption and emissions evaluations help us effectively manage and continuously improve our measures.
- Reporting: We attach great importance to transparent reports showing our environmental progress.
TOPWERK is committed to sustainable action for a future-oriented and responsible development.
