Long-term durability
Developing sustainable solutions for bathrooms has been part of KEUCO’s company philosophy for years. This applies both to the products themselves and to each individual production step. This is the only way to develop and produce products for these and future generations in the long term and to secure jobs.
"Sustainability is one of the five main pillars of the KEUCO corporate strategy. In many areas, we have already made the economic, environmental and social aspects of sustainability our task. We are obliged to the following generations to continue on the path we have taken, to address the issues and to actively shape the future. Only ecological action secures the economic future."
Lubert Winnecken, Managing Director of KEUCO GmbH & Co. KG
Responsibility for
Assuming responsibility - in all areas that are important for the high-quality production of the products. Protectingthe environment and becoming even more sustainable in the processes is the aspiration pursued by KEUCO.
Manufacturing is all about using energy as efficiently as possible.
This is supported, among other things, by the use of our own combined heat and power plant and the use of energy from photovoltaic systems.
For plants in manufacturing and building services, the long-term focus is to be on energy-saving and environmentally friendly systems as well as the procurement of green electricity.
KEUCO takes care to keep the use of materials as low as possible.
KEUCO procures the majority of its deliveries of materials and semi-finished products from Germany, or directly from the region in the mixer tap segment. Numerous recirculating trays are used, so that transport packaging can be completely avoided in many places.
Another aspect of material management is a very good reduction of scrap in production as well as strict quality checks at all stages of the value chain.
Sustainability is firmly anchored in the corporate culture and characterises the manufacture of high-quality products.
These are always designed according to the principles of formal reduction and optimal use of materials. The result is the synergy of powerful design and resource-saving material efficiency.
For optimum results, a mix of high-tech production and elaborate handwork is used in production. Even the smallest particles, for example from the grinding process of fittings and accessories, are collected and recycled and returned to the production cycle.
The products themselves are essential aspects of the sustainable orientation.
KEUCO therefore offers mixer taps that save water and therefore energy thanks to flow limitation.
The high-quality products are designed to be enjoyable for many years to come. And if something doesn't work, our spare parts service offers a solution.
At the same time, care is taken to ensure that products are available that can be used by people of all ages and constitutions.
KEUCO products are subject to high quality standards and are produced according to specifications in compliance with the strictest quality assurance measures and controls “made in Germany”.
The timeless aesthetic design and high quality also ensure that KEUCO products are still up-to-date the day after tomorrow. KEUCO offers comprehensive spare parts management for this purpose.
The KEUCO manufacturer’s warranty begins two years and ends five years after the purchase of the product (warranty period).
EMPLOYMENT
Make your contribution. For KEUCO, corporate responsibility also includes the special commitment to its employees. Continuity on the owner side, the leading role in the market and the independence of KEUCO as a company offer a secure workplace.
A long history and a forward-looking approach to entrepreneurial decisions can provide this security in the long term. Within a positive learning and performance culture, everyone has the opportunity to grow with the company and shape their own career through their contribution and individual commitment.
COMMITMENT
Broaden your view. KEUCO is also committed to social projects regionally and supra-regionally - the spectrum of commitment is broad. For example, local sports clubs, cultural projects and schools are supported.
In addition, KEUCO supports public institutions and projects on the topic of water and health worldwide. In 2019, KEUCO became aware of the Kumanga initiative, which offers people in Malawi help to help themselves. At its core, it is about building wells in areas where there is a shortage of fresh drinking water.
The sustainability report summarises how KEUCO practices responsible handling with regard to economic, environmental and social aspects of sustainability.
The Council for Sustainable Development (RNE) has recognised the KEUCO Sustainability Report and it is therefore officially listed in the German Sustainability Code (DNK).
