Information on PFOS and PFOA

Recently, critical reports on PFTs (perfluorinated surfactants) have been frequently published. PFT is the generic term for all fluoro-organic compounds with a surfactant character. The best known representatives of this group are perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). These substances are watched because they are not degraded in the environment and, as far as toxicity is concerned, have not been thoroughly examined yet.

For a long time our thinking and action has been focused on saving resources for a better environment.

In 1997, as one of the first companies, we introduced the environmental management system according to the international standard DIN EN ISO 14001. Together with the quality management system according to DIN EN ISO 9001, which was first certified in April 1993, it forms an important part of the future-oriented and international business policy of our company. Our environment report informs customers, neighbours and interested circles of our current environmental data.
