Through the systematic optimization of our manufacturing processes, we are continuously reducing our relative energy consumption. At the same time, we have implemented strict protocols for the safe disposal of hazardous materials in order to minimize environmental impact.
At our locations in Wedel and Altenstadt, we rely 100 percent on renewable energy. This measure helps reduce our CO₂ emissions and supports our climate targets.
We are reducing the amount of waste significantly through optimized material use and systematic recycling. Valuable raw materials remain in circulation for longer, extending the useful life of materials and enabling more efficient use of resources.
Flexible working hours and the option to work from home enable our employees to work more flexibly. We believe that modern working arrangements offer freedom that has a positive impact on productivity.
Physical and mental health programs support our workforce’s well-being. Preventive health programs, health checkups, and stress management services are an integral part of our offering in this area.
With vocational trainees in technical and business fields as well as cooperative study programs, we are creating career opportunities for the skilled workers of tomorrow.
Our Code of Conduct sets clear stands for everyone we work with – employees and business partners alike. Robust anti-corruption measures, proactive risk management, and regular training ensure that ethical standards guide our actions across all areas of the business. The result: according to EcoVadis, VINCORION ranks among the top three percent of companies in the industry for ethics.
As a technology company in the security sector, we operate under particularly strict requirements for safeguarding sensitive data. Rigorous protocols, state-of-the-art IT security systems, and ongoing employee training protect both customer information and internal business data from unauthorized access.
Our whistleblowing system allows employees and external partners to report potential violations of ethical standards in complete confidence. This culture of open communication builds trust and ensures that problems are identified and resolved at an early stage.
Our “Supplier Code of Conduct” commits our suppliers to the same high standards that we set for ourselves. Sustainability criteria are becoming increasingly important throughout the entire supply chain and are assessed in our supplier screening process.
Our sustainability efforts are reflected in external ratings: VINCORION was ranked in the 79th percentile in the EcoVadis rating, significantly above the industry average. With a score of 66 points, we outperform roughly 79 percent of all evaluated companies in the defense sector. Our strongest area: ethics – where we rank among the top three percent in our industry.
