Environmental Responsibility
At the climate summit in Paris, governments have started a new global
cooperation against the climate change to save subsequent generations.
The Paris Agreement is a triumph for the humanity, the environment and the
multilateralism. It is a health insurance for the earth. For the first time any
country in the world has agreed to limit emissions, strengthen the resilience
and to combat climate change. And we do with, because the sustainability is
very important to us!
First of all, we have determined the as-is state for our company.
Therefore we have evaluated the use of energy
per product group, as well as
the form of energy and its production.
Among other things, we have detected the following energy requirement for Biacryl (including the attached Management):
| related to the total production in 2014 | related to standard blocks |
|---|---|
| 1.35 KWH/kg | 0.86 Kwh/kg. |
Thus we have according to our research due to the process for standard blocks
the least use of energy and thus the lowest CO2 emissions of our industry !!!
We have committed ourselves:
-
to energetically control and make up the energetically balance of our
operating annually
-
to search for additional CO2 reduction potential and to reduce the CO2
emissions by a further 15% up to 2020
-
to evaluate our main suppliers inter alia from the viewpoint of avoiding
CO2
By the way Biacryl produces since 2013 100% CO2-free electricity that is fed
into the Swiss electricity grid, the amount produced corresponds to 4 times of
the total energy consumption of the company's own production facility in Les
Verrières.
In the overall balance Biacryl has avoided 260 tons of CO2 over the past year,
as Biacryl thinks not only of today and tomorrow.
When evaluating the CO2-free electricity production as a compensatory measure,
the production of :::biacryl ::: would be 100% CO2 free.
