Arburg’s 2024 Sustainability Report Highlights ESG Strategy

The new sustainability report for 2024 is here – and presents the successful measures and activities of the arburgGREENworld programme with convincing facts, figures and actions. The fifth edition of the Arburg sustainability report is also available exclusively online as an interactive PDF on the Arburg website to conserve resources.

Sustainability has always played an important role at Arburg, and since 2019 all activities and measures have been bundled in the arburgGREENworld programme. In addition to the topics of resource efficiency, circular economy and CO₂ footprint, this programme also covers Arburg’s entire ESG strategy (Environmental, Social, Governance) and relates both to the company itself and to its customers and partners.

Sustainability is part of Arburg’s DNA

“Sustainability issues in the two dimensions of ‘economic’ and ‘ecological’ are firmly rooted in Arburg’s DNA and are also very close to the hearts of our shareholders,” emphasises Michael Hehl, Managing Partner of Arburg. “Solutions for greater sustainability are a task for society and the world as a whole and will increasingly be an important part of a successful business model in the future.”

Successful awards

Arburg’s new sustainability report is available online and summarises all the activities, measures and progress of the arburgGREENworld programme in 2024 in a clear and readable way.

The CDP classification in 2024 with a “B” rating proves that Arburg is above average in the areas of climate protection, ecology and CO₂ emissions compared to other mechanical engineering companies. Another success of the previous year is the EcoVadis Gold award, for which the criteria become more demanding from year to year. This means that Arburg continues to be among the top five percent of independently assessed companies in terms of environmental, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement.

Impressive figures

The following figures prove that Arburg is constantly improving in terms of resource efficiency, circular economy and CO₂footprint:

• In 2024, the Arburg electricity mix has a CO₂ footprint that is up to 88 per cent lower than the German electricity mix.
• In 2024, Arburg generated around 2,600,000 kWh of solar power for its own use using photovoltaics.
• The proportion of self-generated electricity from renewable sources was almost 17 per cent.
• 130,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions were saved between 2010 and 2024.
• Almost 25 per cent of Arburg’s total water consumption comes from rainwater collected in cisterns.
• 71 per cent of the total waste generated was recycled in 2024.

Many other impressive figures can be found in the Arburg Sustainability Report 2024, as well as exciting results from research and development.
