Certificates, Awards & Environmental Statements

Robust compliance is an essential pre-requisite for excellence. That is why many years ago, the Schaeffler group transitioned from actions to detect defects to actions aimed at preventing defects. This dynamic quality management process, checked on a daily basis, ensures that continuous improvements are not impeded.

Eco-Audit and Certification to ISO 14001 - Integral to Company Philosophy

‘Environmental protection as a company objective’ – what does it mean to Schaeffler?

For us a healthy planet is the basis of a healthy population. Therefore adhering to a strict environmental philosophy has been our number one priority across product development, purchasing, production and the supply and disposal of materials. Active environmental protection is an integral part of all areas of our business and we know that a positive environmental attitude is profitable to the planet and to the progress of our company.

With the validation and certification of our manufacturing facilities, we are taking a leading role in environmental protection. The plants of the Schaeffler Group have been certified to ISO 14001 at every location worldwide. Many locations, even outside Europe, have also been validated according to the even stricter EMAS (Eco-Management and Audit Scheme) program.
