Fresenius Umwelttechnik emerged from the Fresenius Chemical Laboratory founded by Carl Remigius Fresenius in 1848 and looks back on more than 175 years of corporate tradition in Germany. Since then, the name Fresenius is synonymous with tradition and sustainability.

Sustainability as the guiding principle of our thoughts and actions is an essential part of our corporate strategy and determines our daily work. We combine economic performance with ecological responsibility and social justice.

Economic sustainability
As a medium-sized family business, we are profitably positioned and are therefore in a process of constant alignment and further development. On this basis and in coordination with our stakeholders and other external resources, we are in constant dialog to further develop our range of services and our strategic orientation. In doing so, we are guided equally by the principles of sustainability and innovation.
Successful management requires profitability and sustainability in our actions. On the basis of a certified management system, we secure and develop our process quality with the help of various evaluation and communication instruments. Our goal is to play an active role in shaping technological change. In doing so, we are guided by the interests of our customers as well as the requirements of the labor market and companies.

Ecological sustainability
Fresenius Umwelttechnik supports the principles of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the UN Global Compact. In addition, we are reducing our annual carbon footprint with the declared goal of climate neutrality in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. We want to create transparency about our sustainability performance and, together with our employees, make a positive contribution to the future every day.
Our quality management system is based on ISO 9001:2015.

Social sustainability
The knowledge, skills and experience of our employees are the most important factors in achieving the high quality and cutting-edge nature of our products and services. We promote the individual development of our employees on the basis of a trustful management culture. The focus of personnel development is on the continuous development and expansion of technical, methodological and social skills.

To achieve our economic and ecological goals, we must work together in an atmosphere that is open, productive and supportive. Fresenius Umwelttechnik sees itself as a gender- and family-friendly, inclusive and intercultural company that excludes any discrimination based on personal and social characteristics.

By signing the “Diversity Charter", Fresenius Umwelttechnik commits itself to a corporate culture characterized by mutual recognition and participation of “all" in the company, regardless of gender, ethnic and social origin, disability, age, sexual orientation, religion or ideology.
