Responsibility
for the Future.
As a company with a long-term approach, we see it as part of our corporate responsibility to use resources wisely and to avoid negative impacts on the environment. We therefore set ourselves ambitious global climate protection targets and will drive forward new solutions for sustainable development.
For example: Eco Sealing System.
The Eco Sealing System is our first CO2-optimised product and therefore a milestone on our way to producing our products in a CO2-neutral way. We reduce the majority of emissions through innovations in materials and clean electricity.

Green Electricity.
Energy efficiency is a top priority at Jaeger. Our systems, processes and buildings are always state of the art. The consumption of energy can be reduced but not completely avoided. It is therefore important to get the energy we need from renewable and CO2-neutral sources. Jaeger obtains all the electricity at the Wuppertal site and in Austria from renewable sources. At the same time, we are continuously driving forward the expansion of our own photovoltaic systems. All other locations worldwide will follow suit.
Conserve Resources.
Reducing the Environmental Impact.
When we think of the finite nature of resources, the first thing that comes to mind for many is fossil fuels and switching from heating oil to solar energy, for example. But the same applies to plastics and all other materials made from crude oil. For this reason, we are constantly trying to reduce our production waste and increase the proportion of recycled content in our products. Last year alone, we were able to significantly reduce our waste while increasing the proportion of recycled materials.
CO2-Neutral
to our Customers.
We want to set an example with green mobility. That is why we have already converted a large part of our vehicle fleet to e-mobility. The electricity comes from our charging stations, which are either powered by green electricity or electricity from our solar systems.
Sustainability Through and Through.
To ensure that not only our production site can reduce its impact on the environment, but also our products, we now offer more environmentally friendly alternatives and innovative new solutions in many areas. By using sustainably produced resources such as recycled raw materials or biopolymers, we are making a contribution to the circular economy. In addition, we scrutinize the entire supply chain and are constantly looking for environmentally friendly alternatives.
CO2-Neutrality by 2030 – or Sooner.
Jaeger has set the goal of helping to shape the future and declaring war on emissions. By 2030 at the latest, the energy supply of all locations is to be CO2-neutral. The avoidance of harmful emissions for the environment will be significantly reduced. The proportion of recycled raw materials, biopolymers and renewable raw materials is to be significantly increased.
Management Systems.
Keeping an Eye on the Process.
In our commitment to sustainability and environmental protection, we consider certification by an external auditor to be very important. This shows us objectively where we stand and what we need to work on in order to continuously improve ourselves. We are currently certified to DIN ISO 50001 and DIN ISO 14001 in the area of sustainability. More certifications will follow.
