SUSTAINABILITY MADE DIFFERENT

As an independent and family-owned company, BEUMER Group is deeply committed to the principles of sustainable development. Through strong partnerships we have developed a deep understanding of the sustainability issues of our key industries and enable our partners to achieve their sustainability goals and targets.

“We are active in industries which are vital to society. Our goal is to become a pioneer in making these sectors more sustainable, to reduce the impact on the planet to a minimum.”

Our Commitment to Sustainable Development

At BEUMER Group, sustainability is an integral part of our work. As a family-owned business, we are looking for long-term success and not for the short-term profit. We incorporate sustainability into all of our business decisions and fulfill our responsibility to sustainable development on a global scale.

Our corporate culture sets us apart and is integral to our success, which is why we provide a healthy, open-minded, and inviting workplace that enables our employees to grow professionally.

Our ambition is to be the partner of choice for sustainable intralogistics solutions. We understand the critical role played in society by the industries that we serve, and we’re dedicated to delivering innovative, high-quality products and services that contribute to the sustainable transformation of our partners’ operations.

Contributing to a sustainable future: Our alignment with the UN SDGs

The United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. As BEUMER Group we aim to create sustainable value not just for us and our stakeholders, but towards a greater societal agenda, framed by the UN SDGs.

Translating societal challenges into corporate action

The BEUMER Group sustainability strategy is fully integrated into our overarching corporate strategy, creating co-authorship and co-ownership within the business. Our approach addresses all angles of sustainability:
