Sustainability at SEW-EURODRIVE: committed and forward-looking

For a forward-looking company like the SEW-EURODRIVE Group, a far-sighted sustainable action is a constant challenge and a special responsibility. That's why sustainability isn't just a slogan! Both in terms of our ecological and economic commitment, and our commitment to society.

We are aware that much of what we have realized to date in our company at the sustainability level and are currently planning can only ever be an intermediate step. That is why we never see our efforts to work sustainably as completed. Rather, they are part of continuous and company-wide processes that must always be improved and expanded.

At SEW-EURODRIVE Group, sustainability is therefore the basis of our corporate actions. We apply this principle on a daily basis at all our sites, involving all our staff and working in collaboration with our external partners and suppliers.

We take particular care to ensure that all our employees see themselves as the driving force behind these actions and projects, so that they are resolutely and consistently committed to their work.
