In many countries of the FIXIT GRUPPE, the use of renewable energies is being tested and so far more than 10 photovoltaic systems have been successfully put into operation. One of these is located at the factory site in Bex, Switzerland. A new, highly efficient system with around 4,000 sqm of solar panels was installed here at the end of 2022.

In future, around 830,000 kWh of electricity per year will be produced on five roof surfaces of the factory and production halls, which corresponds to the consumption of around 210 households or 9,244 full Tesla charges. Around 70% of the energy generated is consumed in the factory for the operation of the production machines.

Since 2021, new working models have been tested and introduced in the FIXIT GRUPPE and its countries. Particularly successful is „mobile working“ in Germany, which offers employees the greatest possible flexibility while at the same time protecting the climate: if a value of 150 grams per kilometer between home and work is applied, approximately 55.5 tons of CO2 were saved in 2022 alone. Added to this is a significant reduction in business trips, which are now very often

The recycling of building materials is an essential part of the sustainability strategy. The FIXIT GRUPPE is already involved in many countries and has launched numerous projects and initiatives: in Austria, for example, the company has switched to plastic-free packaging for a significant proportion of its powder products, and in Germany the sites participate in the dual system (Green Dot) and support the recycling of rock wool and EPS waste.
