SLF continues to move toward an environmentally friendly energy balance

Fraureuth, 24 March b2022

The Spindel- und Lagerungstechnik Fraureuth GmbH strongly affirms its responsibility toward the environment and is currently implementing additional measures for sustainable energy management.

At the beginning of 2022, SLF signed a supply contract for 100% renewable energy from hydropower – another step ahead toward resource-saving energy supply. We are purchasing this electricity from the regional energy supply company ZEV Zwickauer Energieversorgung GmbH.

We are also testing a software-based energy monitoring system in the company’s most important areas for energy consumption. This will help to substantially reduce consumption in coming years.

Back in 2016, we voluntarily certified our energy management system according to DIN EN ISO 50001:2018, attesting to the continuous improvement and efficient implementation of our energy policy. Our intent here is to detect and avoid practices that waste energy and resources by means of a continuous improvement process to be verified annually. Employees at all levels in every department are aware of this goal and actively participate in making it a reality.

By developing a common understanding for our energy management strategy among employees, customers, suppliers, and cooperating partners, we hope to achieve greater public support of our products and services and contribute to better climate protection.
