Sustainability
A responsible future, since 1921
Security, trust, and sustainability: we still stand for these values after 100 years. The company was founded in 1921 near the Plansee. It is not only our namesake but also our energy source and more important today than ever. Whether it relates to hydroelectric power, sustainable company management, recycling of materials, or global compliance with labor laws, sustainability has always had many dimensions at Plansee.
Hence, our responsibility towards our customers and the environment is deeply rooted in our company. A long-term security of supply is part of our sustainable business development. With our companies and holdings in mines in the West, we guarantee a secure raw material supply. We are committed to transparency and certifications, and ensure via numerous measures that we do not use any raw materials which come from socially, ethically, or ecologically questionable sources. We also are constantly investing in new technology so that we will remain a reliable partner in the future.
