Sustainability

Being Part of the Solution

For us, plastic is a valuable material that has the potential to be part of the solution. Whether it's efficient product design, energy efficiency, or logistics process optimizing, Röchling Medical's approaches to sustainability are diverse. It is important to us that we think outside the box and move in the right direction in everything we do, whether with large steps or many small ones.

Responsible Material Choices 

Our customers are pioneers in the field of disease prevention and health restoration. Therefore, the products we manufacture and the services we provide are held to exceptionally high regulatory standards. Meeting these standards is our top priority. With regard to the use of sustainable materials such as biopolymers, we face different challenges and constraints than other industries, especially when it comes to pharmaceutical primary packaging that comes into direct contact with active pharmaceutical ingredients or products where biocompatibility is crucial.

ISCC Plus Certification

Within the highly regulated medical industry, we see mass balancing as an opportunity to contribute to reducing the use of fossil resources. With our ISCC Plus certifications of all German Röchling Medical sites, we are able to offer our customers bio-based (-circular) options for primary packaging and medical devices.

Energy-Efficient Production

We see a great opportunity in focusing on how we can produce even more responsibly and ecologically: In addition to the ISO-certified energy management and environmental standards already in place at our sites, that includes investing in modern production facilities and innovative building management to save energy resources and reduce CO2 emissions in the long term.

Design for Sustainability

In product development, we focus on Design for Sustainability and Design for Recyclability to save raw materials and support the circular economy.

Health and Safety

Ensuring a safe working environment for our employees is very important to us. With ISO45001 certification we have made a commitment to continuously improve in occupational health and safety and hold ourselves accountable for it.

Holistic Approach

Sustainability is multifaceted and we aim to take a holistic approach.

Transparency & Committment

We use the EcoVadis rating to make our activities with regard to social responsibility and sustainability transparent for our customers and partners. From 2023, all German Röchling Medical sites will be EcoVadis-rated. With a focus on the areas of environment, labor & human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement, we regularly review our performance and potential for improvement.
