Photovoltaics
We produce around 150% in total of the electricity we need.
Our responsibility for the environment
Sustainability and environmental protection are part of Krampe’s DNA and shape what we do on a daily basis at all levels of the company.
Biogas
Our offices and production halls are heated using district heat from a nearby biogas plant.
Thinking sustainability
We only use high-quality, long-lasting raw materials and components. This protects the environment and saves resources.
Trust
As a family-run business, Krampe embraces an open and honest relationship with employees, suppliers and customers.
Our commitment to a greener future.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. As one of the leading manufacturers of high-quality trailers and agricultural commercial vehicles, we believe it is our responsibility not only to deliver first-class products, but also to minimise our environmental footprint. Our commitment to environmental protection is firmly embedded in our corporate philosophy and shapes all areas of our daily work.
From selecting environmentally friendly materials, through to the implementation of energy-efficient production processes – we constantly strive to reduce our impact on the environment. Our modern production facilities are designed to minimise energy consumption and reduce waste. We are also investing in research and development to create innovative, sustainable solutions that meet the requirements of our customers and of the environment.
Our aim is to secure a future worth living for tomorrow’s generations. That is why we are working constantly to improve our products and processes and forge partnerships with others that share our values. At Krampe, sustainability is not just a trend, but an obligation that we take seriously – for a green and more sustainable world.
Our initiatives
Regional suppliers
We consciously collaborate with many regional suppliers. This collaboration means we can ensure short delivery paths, which substantially reduces CO2 emissions. Rolling transport systems also help us to cut down on packaging materials and thus minimise waste.
Durability of our products
Our tippers, known for their “Quality on Wheels”, stand out with maximum reliability and a long service life. This durability reduces resource consumption and offers our customers long-term cost efficiency.
Environmentally friendly paintwork
Our paint system has a high solid content, which reduces the emissions of solvents. We give the paint enough time to dry to minimise CO2 emissions and stay below the prescribed values.
Use of biogas and district heat
Our offices and production halls are heated entirely using district heat from a nearby biogas plant. This reduces our energy consumption from fossil fuels and minimises CO2 emissions.
Photovoltaic systems
With our in-house photovoltaic system, we produce 150% of our own electricity needs on the roofs of our company building. The surplus power is fed into the grid, helping us promote renewable energies.
Participation in wind power projects
Krampe is actively involved in building a nearby community wind farm in Coesfeld-Flamschen, Germany. Green electricity has been produced here since early 2020. Once complete, the systems will generate enough power for 20,000 homes. This healthy mix of renewable energies bolsters our commitment to a sustainable future.
Dedicated to our employees
As a family-run business, we place great emphasis on the well-being of our employees. From ergonomic workstations through to joint sporting events, we promote a culture of respect, openness and trust. This embraced corporate culture is a key component of our sustainable corporate strategy.
Thinking sustainability
Our responsibility to future generations is reflected in every one of our decisions. Besides the durability of our vehicles, we embrace environmentally friendly production and the protection of valuable resources.
