Campus Marketing Environmental Protection
Climate-neutral company again in 2026
For the eighth consecutive time, we have been certified climate-neutral and offset our CO₂ footprint by supporting international projects.
By accounting for our CO₂ footprint, we are sending a clear signal in support of greater climate responsibility: A total of 120 tonnes of CO₂ were accounted for according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol standards (Scopes 1, 2 and 3) and fully offset through certified climate protection projects. The only emissions certificates used were those verified according to the internationally recognized Gold Standard and Verified Carbon Standard (VCS).
By purchasing the corresponding CO₂ certificates, we invest specifically in projects that make a measurable contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The issuance and retirement of the certificates are documented transparently, ensuring that the offsetting process is traceable. At the same time, we are actively involved in the voluntary emissions trading market, making a tangible contribution to limiting global warming.
This initiative reflects a comprehensive understanding of sustainability: in addition to CO₂ offsetting itself, it supports projects that combine environmental, social and economic benefits.
Three projects with global impact
One focus of our commitment is the expansion of renewable energy. For example, a solar energy project in India supports the installation of grid-connected photovoltaic systems. Its aim is to make the energy supply more stable and sustainable while diversifying the energy mix over the long term. Revenue from the sale of emissions certificates makes a decisive contribution to making these projects financially viable and expanding them further.
Another project in Malawi shows how climate protection and social improvements can go hand in hand. The distribution of around 500,000 efficient cookstoves significantly reduces firewood consumption. This not only slows deforestation but also improves air quality in homes. Women and children in particular benefit from shorter journeys to collect firewood and reduced health risks from smoke.
Our commitment is complemented by a wind energy project in Pakistan. The wind farm there helps stabilize the country’s energy supply and reduce power outages. At the same time, it creates local jobs and brings modern technologies to the region. In addition to providing an economic boost, the project also improves the environmental footprint by avoiding fossil fuel use.
Sustainability as part of corporate responsibility
By supporting these projects, we reaffirm our commitment to combining business practices with environmental responsibility. Emissions offsetting should not be seen as a one-off measure, but as part of an ongoing commitment to a future worth living.
The certificate issued documents this commitment and makes our sustainability efforts visible. One thing is clear to the company: climate protection starts with transparency, responsibility—and concrete action. Environmental protection measures are also an important part of our VSME report.
»When we first calculated our carbon footprint in 2019, we were surprised by how much our business activities affected it. This realization literally inspired us to make consistent improvements in the years that followed. We have now been certified as a climate-neutral company for the eighth time and are supporting projects around the world through our climate contribution.«
