Social Commitment

For us, sustainability is a global task. However, we are not only responsible for this at our company locations. We support activities and challenges that are important to us and to everyone all over the globe.

EMEA

We have been committed to supporting sporting events and youth activities for many years. We are not only active as the main sponsor and namesake of the BITZER Cup and as a sponsor for TuS Ergenzingen in Germany, but also in the United Kingdom as a sponsor of the U15 youth team Newport Pagnell Town FC Jaguars. In 2022, the Jaguars won the FA Berks and Bucks County Cup Final.

AFRICA

Promoting young talent, training specialists and supporting educational institutions is an integral part of our mission and values. At the end of 2021, we were able to donate a condensing unit, training materials and equipment to the Kisumu National Polytechnic Industrial School in Kisumu, Kenya. The equipment and manuals are needed by students in the school's refrigeration and air conditioning laboratory. We maintain close contact with the teachers at Kisumu National Polytechnic through our BITZER Kenya location.

In September 2020, we donated a condensing unit to AIC Kijabe Hospital in Kijabe, Kenya, to replace an old BITZER condensing unit from 1992. AIC Kijabe Hospital is one of the largest hospitals in Kenya, providing essential and quality healthcare in Kenya and the region.

Since 2020, we have been supporting the Great Green Wall project in Senegal to offset our carbon footprint caused by our annual dealer and customer meetings around the world. Seeds for trees, fruit and vegetables are mainly used for nurseries and, among other things, support women's groups to sell the fruit. The planted area covers 120 hectares in the valley of the Senegal River and in 12 surrounding villages.

ASIA

After having previously provided support in the form of CO₂ cascade test stands, this year again we support the students of the Bandung State Polytechnic (POLBAN), Indonesia, with academic scholarships, teaching and training materials for laboratory work and a modern condensing unit with our IQ module. The students use these to carry out practical field tests and research projects. The experiences and successes are shared in a pedagogical framework via webinars with the students of the following year. We also accompany webinars like this one, and those with a focus on energy efficiency and sustainability, at the Indramayu State Polytechnic (POLINDRA).

For the academic year 2021-2022 we are again awarding scholarships for excellence to students at Technical University of Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology and Education, and Nha Trang University, Vietnam, as well as the Cambodia Industrial Technical Institute, Cambodia. The students and their courses focus primarily on environmentally friendly refrigerants and technologies with low GWP, for future solutions in environmental protection and high efficiency in air conditioning and refrigeration.

AUSTRALIA

In June 2022, we donated 100 trees to the Foundation for National Parks & Wildlife, Australia. Since 1970, the foundation has followed its mission to protect Australia's wilderness and wildlife for future generations.

CHINA

Promoting young talent, training specialists and supporting educational institutions is an integral part of our mission and values. The annual competition of Chinese colleges in the HVACR industry has been held by the China Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry Association for many years, and we have been the sponsor for more than 10 years. This student competition is one of the largest and most significant competitions in the major subjects of heating, refrigeration, air conditioning and ventilation in Chinese universities. Almost 4,000 students from 120 universities can take part in this competition each year and compete in three categories.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY

OUR PRODUCTS


Constantly improving the energy efficiency of our products is our MISSION. In this way, we offer our partners solutions to reduce their energy consumption and make an important contribution to protecting our environment.
Why does the energy efficiency of our products and solutions in industrial refrigeration in particular create important added value for our partners and the environment?

Our Sites

We have been investing heavily in the efficient use of resources at our production sites for years. In the area of ​​environmental and resource management, our German locations can look back on more than 20 years of successful EMAS certification, and our international locations on our ISO 14001 certifications.

In 2021, we launched one of our biggest contributions to date on the road to making our company carbon neutral: a photovoltaic system on the roof of our factory building in Rottenburg-Ergenzingen, Germany. Together with a combined heat and power plant and a BITZER Organic Rankine Cycle system, which generates electricity from waste heat, the site will be able to generate around three quarters of its own energy requirements.

At our site in Castelo Branco, Portugal, we have also installed a solar system that reduces our carbon footprint by reducing our grid consumption by 32% in 2021. In addition, we were able to reduce our water requirements by 88% in 2021 through a water retention system and the transformation of our outdoor facilities.

Globally, the use of our energy-efficient original BITZER spare parts led to an estimated 56542 tons of CO₂-equivalent savings through compressor repairs and overhauls at our GreenPoint service points worldwide in 2021:

  • North America estimated 4107.60 tons of CO₂-equivalent savings
  • South America estimated 14598.72 tons of CO₂-equivalent savings
  • EMEA estimated 27697.70 tons of CO₂-equivalent savings
  • APAC outside of China estimated 4217.11 tonnes of CO₂-equivalent savings
  • China estimated 5921.30 tons of CO₂-equivalent savings

EMAS - the Eco-Management and Audit Scheme - is a European environmental certification that examines corporate contribution to environmental protection and social responsibility.

The structure of the environmental management system in EMAS corresponds to the environmental management standard ISO 14001. In addition to ISO 14001, with EMAS we fully involve our employees and their processes for continuous improvement.

External, independent, state-approved and monitored environmental auditors regularly inspect our manufacturing sites for EMAS certification. In doing so, they pay attention to compliance with the formal EMAS rules, the company's environmental performance and whether the organisation achieves the goals it has set for itself. In this way, we ensure that we fully comply with all relevant environmental legislation and create added value for our partners and the environment.

With our current EMAS certification, we can look back on more than 20 years of successful EMAS certification in the field of environmental management. With our environmental management system, we also meet the requirements of EMAS III.

We take the security of your data and the data of our partners very seriously.
BITZER's own data centre at the BITZER headquarters in Sindelfingen, Germany, was certified in 2022 by TÜV Informationstechnik GmbH (TÜViT) according to TSI.STANDARD V4.3, Level 2 and conformity to EN 50600.
This means that we belong to an exclusive group of companies that have a very secure data centre.

The criteria catalogue TSI.STANDARD reflects the current state of the art and standards and is constantly being developed and improved. In doing so, TÜViT is guided by the measures recommended by the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). With EN 50600, everything is audited by TÜV Nord, from general concepts, building construction and redundancies in the power supply, to the regulation of ambient conditions via cooling systems with BITZER compressors, to the entire building's wiring, security systems and energy consumption. The cooling system in our data centre has a redundant structure. Both our screw and our scroll compressors are in operation.

We are proud to be able to offer our partners and their data not only a highly modern and energy-efficient solution, but above all, a very high level of security.
