In doing so, we were guided by the recommendations of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the SDG Compass. In the manufacturing sector, the largest opportunities available are in production and products, and here especially in SDGs 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), 12 (Sustainable Consumption and Production) and 13 (Climate Action). va-Q-tec contributes to SDG 9 (especially Goal 9.4) by developing innovative and sustainable insulation solutions for a wide range of industries and applications. Our solutions help other industries work more sustainably and use resources more effectively. SDG 12 aims to promote sustainable consumption and production patterns. va-Q-tec is also able to contribute to this. On one hand, we rely on innovative technologies and recycled materials to reduce resource consumption, on the other, we are working to reduce waste in packaging by offering efficient and environmentally friendly packaging solutions. As a manufacturing company, we are actively working to reduce, substitute, and offset our CO\u2082 emissions to minimize any negative impact on the climate. We are already climate-neutral and aim to further reduce our overall CO\u2082 emissions in the future to contribute even more to CO\u2082 reduction. You can find more information on this in our current Sustainability Report.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n    <\/div>\n\n\n<div

announced climate neutrality for the first time for the complete production of vacuum insulation panels, boxes, and containers. This is possible due to intuitive measures taken to save energy as well as supporting internationally recognized climate protection projects. The company is the first manufacturer of high-performance thermal boxes and containers as well as highly efficient high-tech insulation materials to achieve climate neutrality for both our German production sites. Since 2021, the entire group, including all sites worldwide, have been operating in a climate-neutral manner. va-Q-tec consistently continues its measures towards more thermal energy efficiency and sustainability in-house. Since the company was founded in 2001, the use of vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) has significantly improved energy efficiency in industry, technology, construction, mobility, and logistics. Now it is also achieving its goal of making the entire production of its insulation panels and temperature storage elements, containers, and boxes climate neutral. \r\n<\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"block-center\">\n                <div class=\"grid-wrap\">\n                    <div class=\"grid\">\n                                                    <div class=\"media\">\n                                <div class=\"outer\">\n                                    <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.va-q-tec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/LRG_Sustainability.jpg\"\/>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                                            <div class=\"media\">\n                                <div class=\"outer\">\n                                    <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.va-q-tec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Weyerhauser_Aufforstung_Uruguay_4.jpg\"\/>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                                            <div class=\"media\">\n                                <div class=\"outer\">\n                                    <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.va-q-tec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/BHKW_va-Q-tec_Mid_Res.jpg\"\/>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                                            <div class=\"media\">\n                                <div class=\"outer\">\n                                    <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.va-q-tec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/va-Q-tec_Headquaters_2021_3c_LR.jpg\"\/>\n                                    <div class=\"video-play-button\">\n                                        <i class=\"icon-play\"><\/i>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"video-overlay\">\n                                        <div class=\"video-close-button\">\n                                            <i class=\"icon-close\"><\/i>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"container\">\n                                            <video controls>\n                                                                                                    <source src=\"https:\/\/www.va-q-tec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/05062023-vaQtec-Clip_Koelleda_1.mp4\"\/>\n                                                                                                                                                                                            <\/video>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"block-bottom\">\n                                    <div class=\"text\">In January 2020, va-Q-tec announced climate neutrality for the first time for the complete production of vacuum insulation panels, boxes, and containers.

The emissions are offset in a climate protection project in Uruguay. There, va-Q-tec maintains a foreign branch office in the capital Montevideo, which is responsible for Latin America. In this South American country, former cattle pastures are being selectively reforested to continuously restore the original forest cover. We are also involved in a regional forest ecology project in the Rh\u00f6n Mountains, near the W\u00fcrzburg headquarters. In this biosphere reserve, moors are renaturalized and existing forests are reforested and maintained.
