Interstuhl has been striving to reduce its emissions for many years. The construction of photovoltaic systems, the use of district heating from a local biogas plant as well as the use of spring water have allowed the company to continually lower its overall emissions.
As a result, Interstuhl was certified as a climate-neutral company by TÜV Rheinland in the reporting year 2021 for the first time. During the calculation period, the company offset 3,166 t of CO2 equivalent (a more conservative value, calculated by us according to EMAS). The calculations took into account the emissions from scopes 1 and 2 in the application areas of the three main brands Interstuhl, Bimos and Backforce of the Interstuhl Group.
