The company makes the leap from gold to platinum in the renewed sustainability rating.
Silver, Gold, Platinum - within three years, Zeppelin Power Systems has worked its way to the top of the certificate ladder. Following significant improvements in all areas assessed - environment, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement - the company has now been awarded the platinum medal, placing it in the top one percent.
Sustainability at Zeppelin Power Systems
Sustainability is an important part of the way Zeppelin Power Systems sees itself - especially as a member of the Zeppelin Group Foundation. In order to fulfill its social responsibility, the company sets itself ecological, social and economic goals that are in line with those of the Zeppelin Group. These include increasing the proportion of women in the company to at least 20 percent by 2025, reducing freshwater consumption by 10 percent and increasing the proportion of recycled materials by 20 percent by 2030.
Zeppelin Power Systems is also taking site-specific measures. In Achim, for example, the company cooperates with AZWEIO. This means that bicycles are available free of charge at the Achim train station for employees from Achim and the surrounding area to use to get to the site. This is intended to encourage the use of public transportation.
Platinum award for sustainability efforts
EcoVadis is the world's largest provider of sustainability ratings and evaluates companies based on four criteria: "Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Sourcing. Zeppelin Power Systems received the Platinum Award after achieving significant improvements in all areas (up to 18 percentage points). This places the company in the top one percent of all companies assessed by EvoVadis over the past 12 months.
"We were awarded silver status in the penultimate ranking and a gold medal in the last ranking. The fact that we have now achieved platinum status shows how hard our team is working to continuously improve," says Christian Köll, Head of Production and responsible for CSR at Zeppelin Power Systems. "The EcoVadis sustainability ranking is an important step in this process. It allows us to identify potential for improvement, which in turn forms the basis for ouraction plans".
