The role of the industry in the global fight against climate change and the encouragement of sustainable development is steadily increasing. More and more companies are recognizing that environmental and social sustainability are among the decisive factors for the long-term success of their businesses and are increasingly focusing on being part of the solution rather than just part of the problem.

ebm‑papst is also aware of this fact and is continuously working to professionalize its commitment to sustainability management. In this context, the leading international manufacturer of fans and motors recently agreed to collaborate with Bosch Climate Solutions to jointly consider new strategic solutions in the area of sustainability. The aim is to achieve CO2-neutral production (Scope 1 and 2) by 2025 and also to pursue a comprehensive sustainability strategy.

To take another important step on this path, ebm‑papst Germany participated in the EcoVadis Rating. EcoVadis is a sustainability rating platform and has awarded ebm‑papst Germany with a bronze medal for the 2023 survey period. Compared to the industry, this award makes ebm‑papst one of the manufacturers with the highest performance in sustainability, divided into labor and human rights, environment, sustainable procurement and ethics. This award is a great appreciation and motivation to continue driving the sustainable activities forward.
