Our future is sustainable.

Firstly, we shape our own corporate development in sustainable ways. Secondly, we enable our customers to do so.

Christel Nelius, Corporate Sustainability Manager

We take sustainability twice as seriously.

We view the development towards a sustainable company as being a logical transformational step. As a family business, we think in terms of generations. This is why we adopt the global guidelines of the United Nations and provide our contribution to sustainable development – in ecological, social and economic terms. We also have the opportunity to promote sustainable development in two ways.

We call it
Sustainability².

We are committed to sustainable corporate
development – on two levels:

For
Haufe Group.

We are resolutely driving forward our own sustainable transformation.

For
our customers.

Thanks to innovative products and solutions, we also support customers in their sustainable development.

We take a holistic,
sustainable approach.

Ecological sustainability.

Social sustainability.

Economic sustainability.

Ecological sustainability:

We are on the path to climate neutrality.

Greenhouse gas emissions are a key cause of climate change and global warming. Although our business activities have a comparatively low impact on ecological processes, it is our declared goal to iteratively minimize our footprint.

CEO Haufe Group
