Sustainability

Our contribution to a resource-conserving economy

Sustainability takes centre stage at Bürkle. With high standards in the areas of environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG), we are convinced that we can have a positive impact on the world through transparent processes, fair partnerships and resource-conserving behaviour - today and for future generations.

Environment

At Bürkle, we consistently pursue a sustainable product and corporate philosophy. We focus on climate protection and the responsible use of raw material resources.

Social

For us, people take centre stage: we are committed to fair working conditions, diversity and the promotion of social values - in our company and along the entire supply chain in order to make a positive contribution to society.

Governance

For us, responsible corporate governance means transparency, integrity and compliance. With clear standards and ethical behaviour, we create trust - internally, with our partners and in society.

EcoVadis sustainability rating

Bürkle receives the EcoVadis gold medal for sustainability, placing it in the top 5% of all companies assessed - and even in the top 2% in our industry. We have improved in all areas (environment, ethics, labour & human rights, sustainable procurement).

We are proud of this great result and want to continue to improve.

EcoVadis

UN Global Compact

We are pleased to announce that Bürkle has joined the UN Global Compact (UNGC). This commitment marks a significant step in our commitment to sustainability and social responsibility.

Sustainable procurement

Environmentally friendly materials, fair partnerships and transparency

By selecting environmentally friendly materials, fair partnerships and transparency, we create sustainable added value along the entire supply chain - for a future that puts people and the environment at the centre.

Risk assessment during supplier evaluation

It is important to Bürkle GmbH to work with suppliers who are aware of their social responsibility. For this reason, we have established a risk management system for the supply chain. We carry out risk analyses and check compliance with the principles and values listed in our CoC by means of self-disclosures and risk-based supplier audits on site.
We conduct risk-based supplier audits in accordance with the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG). An ESG platform is used to carry out the risk analysis and to define and monitor preventive and corrective measures.

Our Code of Conduct

Our Code of Conduct defines the values and standards by which we act: Integrity, transparency and respect. It serves as a guideline for responsible behaviour - for our team, our partners and our society.

Self-disclosure and supplier evaluation platforms

Bürkle is active on various self-disclosure platforms to promote transparency and trust. We provide comprehensive insights into our sustainability and ESG measures and enable partners and customers to make a well-founded assessment of our commitment to the environment, social issues and corporate governance.
