Self-declaration

“Human dignity is inviolable“
CEO, Dr. Armin Kohler

Social action and social responsibility towards people, animals and the environment are values that have long been goals in our company.

17 sustainability goals according to the UN

The goals take into account all three dimensions of sustainability – Social, environmental, economic – equally and apply to all countries in the world!

Climate change, poverty and hunger, flight and migration are issues that concern us all. We decide whether we buy products like jeans, chocolate or mobile phones that people have produced under dignified and fair conditions. We decide how much energy we use. We decide how we use the resources and treasures of nature. Our lifestyle and the way we do business have direct consequences – for us, for others and for future generations.

Essentially, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals include:

End poverty and hunger and fight inequalities
Strengthen people’s self-determination, ensure gender equality and a good and healthy life for everyone
Promote prosperity for all and shape sustainable lifestyles worldwide
Respect the earth’s ecological limits: fight climate change, preserve natural resources and use them sustainably
Protect human rights – ensure peace, good governance and access to justice
Build a global partnership
