WIKA Group presents first ESG report and emphasises sustainable commitment
Klingenberg, May 2024. WIKA shared its first Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report at the Hannover Messe in April – two years before required by law. This confirms the company’s commitment to sustainability and transparent reporting.
“The publication of our first ESG report is a clear commitment to our responsibility towards the environment and society. Our aim is not only to achieve progress, but also to make it visible and comprehensible. The report features individual projects from all over the world and illustrates our sustainability endeavours,” explained Alexander Wiegand, CEO of the WIKA Group.
The ESG report documents the company’s objectives and previous activities in the three core areas of sustainability: ecology, economy and social. The focus is particularly on climate protection measures, workplace attractiveness, employee development and retention and the company’s ability to innovate. In preparing the sustainability report, WIKA was guided by the internationally recognised “Global Reporting Initiative” (GRI) standard.
The company has already taken extensive measures to increase the efficiency of its processes and integrate more renewable energies. The aim is not only to minimise WIKA’s environmental impact, but also to support customers on their path towards greater sustainability.
