Environmental successes
Georg Fischer has already had many successes, both large and small, in the field of environmental protection. 

Examples:

Air emissions
Air pollutants at Georg Fischer result primarily from the supply and use of energy sources.
Green power
Electric power generated in an environmentally responsible way from renewable sources such as water power, solar energy or wind power is being used to an increasing degree in industrial production at Georg Fischer.
Heat recovery / energy conservation
Reutilization of waste heat, primarily from energy-intensive foundry processes, is an efficient measure for reducing primary energy requirements.
Product responsibility
The company’s products can be used by customers for years, and sometimes decades, meaning that even the smallest of efficiency gains can have a massive impact on overall environmental performance.
Waste
Different types of wastes are generated in different amounts in industrial processes.
Water
Efficient utilization and economical consumption are essential for conserving drinking water, a natural resource.
