We are climate neutral.
Our production site already runs on 55% green electricity and our parcel shipping has been CO₂-neutral since 2014. But that's not enough for us: we are taking the next important step and becoming climate neutral. We are offsetting our company's CO₂ footprint - from heating and electricity costs to company vehicles, business travel, employee commuting and paper waste.
Under the sign of the green revolution
Soon our lights will go on – and with a clear statement for the environment. Our brand new photovoltaic system is about to be commissioned and will cover a whopping 50% of our energy needs. A groundbreaking milestone for us and our mission to become greener. Orthopedic professionals, your purchase from us will not only be characterized by quality, but also by a green conscience. With sustainable energy design, we are contributing together to an ecological future.
We have been sending all parcels CO2-neutral since 2014.
Climate neutral
Why this step? The climate crisis is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. We must all take responsibility for the solution and make an active contribution - including SPRINGER.
In the coming years, we want to further increase the demands we place on ourselves. We have resolved to significantly reduce our CO₂ emissions over the next three years. After all, it is better to avoid carbon dioxide than to compensate for it afterwards.

"The climate crisis is one of the greatest challenges of our time and requires the commitment of all people and companies. SPRINGER is facing up to this responsibility and completely offsetting its CO₂ footprint. We will continue to reduce our CO₂ emissions over the next few years. After all, it is even better to avoid CO₂ emissions than to compensate for them afterwards."

This is how we become even more sustainable step by step
Step 1
Analysis
How much carbon dioxide do we actually emit? Together with our partner SQC-QualityCert, we record activity and emissions data from various sources and calculate SPRINGER's CO₂ emissions.
Step 2
Compensation
We support certified regional and international environmental projects that reduce CO₂ emissions locally. This is how we offset our emissions.
Step 3
Reduction
Avoiding is better than offsetting. Every year, we take steps to conserve resources and reduce our CO₂ emissions.
