Sustainability

We are passionate about developing machines and solutions that our customers can trust. We make a sustainable contribution to feeding the world, producing and preserving beverages, and creating, maintaining and cleaning infrastructure. For a safe and healthy life for all.

Our success is built on proximity to the markets, innovation and flexible, efficient structures. The consistent long-term orientation of our corporate strategy, coupled with decentralised responsibility for management and performance, underpins our sustainable corporate development.

Sustainability is well established in our organisation, and the responsibilities are clearly set out at all levels and closely linked with our strategy. The board of directors is responsible for developing the sustainability strategy and policies, and receives regular updates from group management on material developments and progress in relation to the specified sustainability targets. The oversight of non-financial reporting has been delegated to the audit committee, while implementation has been delegated to the members of group management. Specific targets for the implementation of the Group-wide sustainability strategy have been set for the members of group management. Target achievement is monitored and is reflected in the managers’ remuneration. The Group’s interdivisional ESG team is involved in developing and implementing the sustainability strategy and policies, and works together with the divisions. Group management receives updates on current developments and projects at regular meetings

Through our sustainability strategy focusing on the four pillars Customers, Employees, Environment, and Compliance, longevity is ingrained and sustained in the core business of Bucher Industries. The sustainability strategy encompasses ecological, social and ethical aspects. Within these pillars, we identified nine material topics. We have described their management approaches, established metrics and quantitative objectives where feasible, and listed measures, precautionary actions, and current information for each year.

With the increasing demand for ESG information, the importance of transparent reporting and comparable data is also growing. We contribute to this by actively fostering the exchange with rating agencies and undergoing evaluations by agencies based on ESG criteria.
