Success for Generations: Environmental Protection at WAGO

At WAGO, we do not view environmental protection as merely observing environmental protection regulations.

Our commitment to the environment is our motivation for implementing new ideas, concepts, and technologies along the entire service life of our products. We support our workers and business partners in this. At the same time, we are also a solution provider with our product portfolio and support our customers in efficient energy management.

At All Levels:

Certified Management System
Company-Related Environmental Management
Product-Related Environmental Protection

Company-Related Environmental Management

Company growth also leads to higher consumption of resources. We recognize that the economic success of our company also depends on achieving environmental goals. As a manufacturer, we support developments that contribute to environmental protection. We always track individual material flows along the value added chain, because we view raw materials, product design, production, and consumption as parts of the whole. We strive to close cycles and save resources.

With our environmental and energy management system certified according to DIN EN ISO 14001 and DIN EN ISO 50001, we ensure that national and international requirements are observed in every branch of our company, and that environmental protection considerations are involved in all company processes. In addition, WAGO makes other environmental protection efforts that extend beyond the ISO requirements. These include, for example, employee actions in the field of waste prevention or our energy scouts. Additional examples include: plastic and water treatment, raw material conservation in production and packaging materials, the use of recycled paper across the entire company, the introduction of charging stations for e-vehicles, and the use of waste heat in production processes.

Product-Related Environmental Protection

Product-related environmental protection plays a significant role in WAGO's sustainable environmental management. We place high priority on ensuring adherence to substance prohibitions/limitations worldwide (e.g., REACH, RoHS). Further information about REACH and ROHS can be found on our site ”Environmental Product Compliance Search.”

RoHS – Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances

This relates to the EU directive that regulates the use of hazardous substances in equipment and components. In addition to reducing impacts on people and the environment, the regulation’s goal is to improve possibilities for recycling. WAGO closely monitors RoHS developments and promptly respond accordingly to any changes in these requirements. Further information about ROHS can be found on our site ”Environmental Product Compliance Search.”
