Klasmann-Deilmann presents its Sustainability Report<\/h2>\n

Klasmann-Deilmann GmbH has now presented its 2016 Sustainability Report<\/a>, a publication in which the company regularly provides information about key developments in nature conservation and climate protection, the use of resources and the sustainability management targets specified by the Group. \u201cWe take our corporate responsibility for ecology, economy and social issues very seriously and are continuously working to achieve further improvements in many areas,\u201d comments Managing Director Norbert Siebels. \u201cOur Sustainability Report ensures the necessary transparency in our dialogue with the public.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the last few decades, for instance, Klasmann-Deilmann has re-waterlogged and afforested more than 8000 hectares of former peat production sites or prepared them for agricultural after-use. More than 3800 hectares of that area are now natural habitats which permanently promote nature conservation and climate protection,\u201d adds Siebels.<\/p>\n

Active peat extraction sites are increasingly subject to additional voluntary self-imposed obligations which go further than the requirements specified by the authorities. An important factor in that context is the independent certification system \u201cResponsibly Produced Peat\u201d (RPP), which prescribes strict standards for the selection, use and restoration of production sites. \u201c70 % of our total production volume will already be certified to RPP standards by the end of 2017,\u201d announced Siebels. \u201cThat is good news, because the RRP certificate gives our commercial horticultural customers in particular the certainty that our substrates are made from responsibly produced raw materials.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Between 2013 and 2016, the emissions caused by Klasmann-Deilmann rose from 204,144 t CO2<\/sub>e to 208,929 t CO2<\/sub>e. \u201cThis increase is a result of the company\u2019s growth,\u201d explains Managing Director Moritz B\u00f6cking. \u201cDuring that same period, however, we reduced emissions per cubic metre of substrate from 63 kg CO2<\/sub>e to just under 59\u00a0kg CO2<\/sub>e. We have therefore made excellent progress as regards this core aspect.\u201d<\/p>\n

The figures on the company\u2019s carbon footprint also took into account a study commissioned by Klasmann-Deilmann in which the emissions on peat production sites were measured in accordance with scientific criteria over a period of two years. \u201cThe production of our raw materials causes significantly lower harmful gases per annum than previously assumed,\u201d states B\u00f6cking.<\/p>\n

Klasmann-Deilmann plans to reduce its own emissions to 160,000 t CO2<\/sub>e by the year 2020. \u201cIn view of our strong growth, this is an ambitious target,\u201d comments B\u00f6cking, \u201cbut we believe we have found ways of achieving our goal.\u201d The strategy will also be assisted by positive effects from the Renewable Energy Division. \u201cOur renewable resources play a major role in providing eco-friendly sources of electricity and heating, especially in the Baltic countries,\u201d claims Norbert Siebels. \u201cThis helps to reduce the use of conventional energy sources such as oil, gas and coal.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2016 Sustainability Report complies with the internationally accepted standards of the \u201cGlobal Reporting Initiative\u201d (GRI)<\/a>, which specify the publication of highly diverse information. Klasmann-Deilmann is one of the first business enterprises in Germany to implement the latest generation of GRI standards.<\/p>\n
