Environmental Responsibility

The core topics of the environmental management system certified to ISO 14001:2015 are the following environmental aspects: emissions into the atmosphere, discharges into water bodies, soil contamination, consumption of raw materials and natural resources, energy consumption/efficiency, release of energy (in the form of heat, radiation, light, noise), waste generation, land use/biodiversity.

Out of respect for the environment and with the timeless goal of contributing to sustainable development, Dotex implements an energy audit according to DIN EN 16247-1. This ensures that, in all phases of the production process, the consumption of natural resources is minimized, atmospheric impact is reduced to the maximum extent possible, and significant amounts of energy are saved.
