SustainabilityImproving Efficiency

One thing is crystal clear to the company's founder: "Our resources are finite and will not become cheaper in the long term.
As a result, at gravion we scrutinize existing technology and spend every day developing more efficient solutions."

For instance, the gravion team has reduced the amount of waste produced by the manufacturing process by such an extent that a regular trash will hold it all. The power that gravion uses comes from renewable sources of energy. The roof of the company's premises is used to generate power and even rainwater is collected, treated and re-used.

Dietmar Buchholz and his team put everything they've got into acting in line with the company's motto: Be different – be innovative!
