Carbon dioxide (CO2) was responsible for 87.1% of the 739 million metric tons of greenhouse gases in 2020, according to the German Federal Environment Agency.

Since we only have one environment, GFA has been working for years to protect the environment in all possible places. For us as a manufacturing company, this means that we are constantly identifying processes in which our CO2 emissions can be reduced. For example, we are now increasingly using LED lighting and rely on our own block-type thermal power plant for heat production in our premises.

Thanks to our efforts, we managed to save 59,932kg of CO2 in 2020 according to our block heating power plant partner SenerTec. This success spurs us on to further reduce our CO2 emissions in 2021.
