Environmental awareness is anchored permanently in the principles at MAHLE. Like our company, MAHLE's environmental strategy is oriented globally. It comprises the involvement and training of our employees, the saving of resources and consistent optimization of our products and production processes by taking account of relevant environmental aspects. The environment certainly benefits most from the further development of our core products, because novel technologies and new generations of products reduce fuel consumption and pollution emissions significantly. We have made considerable progress since we introduced the environmental management system in 1996. 80 percent of all MAHLE locations have been certified successfully in compliance with DIN EN ISO 14001 and/ or EMAS II – making MAHLE one of the top groups among automotive suppliers. The growth of the group has forced us to face new challenges in the past years, also in the environmental protection area. The positive results of repeated internal and external reviews of our environmental programs and management systems show that the approach that we have taken is the right one. Finally, the personal conviction of the employees that the conservation of resources is not just a passing fad, but rather a topic of basic importance, is an important condition for success in environmental protection.
