Sustainability

We think in generations

For us, sustainability means creating lasting value for all stakeholders: for customers, employees and investors as well as for business partners and society as a whole.

SCHMID is a family business – we think long-term and act responsibly. The protection of climate and environment, social and societal commitment as well as responsible corporate governance are the key pillars of SCHMID’s sustainability strategy.

The following guiding principles dominate our sustainability strategy.

SCHMID: Responsible corporate governance

Our values, our corporate principles and our compliance organization are the basis for responsible and long-term corporate governance. Our corporate activities are focused on profitable growth and on forward-looking business areas and sectors.

SCHMID supports customers in climate protection

SCHMID Development and Research deliberately focuses on the development of low-consumption and low-emission products and processes that can reduce the ecological footprint of our customers’ factories and achieve sustainability in production.

SCHMID minimizes own climate footprint 

In our own business operations, we consistently focus on measures to reduce our environmental footprint. At the same time, we focus on a transparent and sustainable supply chain.

SCHMID’s commitment to employees & society

SCHMID aims to be regarded as an attractive and fair employer that offers its employees a wide range of opportunities for career and personal development. SCHMID is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion because we believe that our collective differences make us stronger, more innovative, and better equipped to tackle the challenges of today and tomorrow.
