CENTROTEC Sustainable AG: First Sustainability Report
15.12.2011 / 14:30
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Brilon, December 14, 2011. In publishing the 2010 Sustainability Report,
CENTROTEC Sustainable AG has carried out a first official analysis of its
own carbon footprint and of other sustainability-related data such as the
consumption of resources, health and safety at work, and aspects of social
responsibility. This report was preceded by a process of collecting
non-financial data that is of increasing relevance for businesses, spanning
the period 2008 to 2010 and all production units of the CENTROTEC Group.
The first Sustainability Report thus represents a major addition to the
already extensive financial reports published by CENTROTEC, as Europe's
only listed supplier of energy-saving solutions for buildings. The
information gathered was used e.g. for the submission to the Carbon
Disclosure Project (CDP), the world-leading database of information on
emissions and climate protection strategies that have been put in place by
industry. Bearing in mind that CENTROTEC fundamentally strives for a high
level of transparency in its reporting, this first report to the CDP
already been very positively received and has helped CENTROTEC to close the
gap on the leading companies in respect of reporting quality. As well as
being a source of information for investors, media, customers and
government agencies, the various sustainability data is used internally, in
particular for optimising operating processes and products.
In future, CENTROTEC will update the Sustainability Report annually and in
the process seek to intensify its investigation of the underlying issues.
The aim is steadily to improve its key sustainability indicators, and
refine its internal processes and organisation in a suitably sustainable
way. Corresponding measures such as a guideline on CO2-neutral new
buildings, the incorporation of CO2 reduction targets into the budget
process and other measures both at group level and at the individual
companies have already been implemented.
CENTROTEC Sustainable AG
CENTROTEC Sustainable AG and its subsidiaries enjoy a presence in over 50
different countries. The principal group companies are Wolf Heiztechnik,

which have focused on gas flue systems and solar system components in the
Gas Flue Systems segment. CENTROTEC is consequently Europe's only listed
