Three pillars of sustainability

Climate

As a building components supplier for products and solutions for indoor climate as well as interior doors made of wood and glass, Arbonia takes a responsibility for protecting the environment and climate. We see great potential in the transformation into an environmentally compatible economy and would like to substantially contribute to make buildings more sustainable with our product, development and service portfolio. Through further product innovations and new solutions, we want to minimise the ecological impact of our business activity and that of our customers on the environment so that Arbonia reduces its greenhouse gas emissions along the entire value-added chain.

Community

Our employees are the driving force for the further development of our company. They simultaneously act as ambassadors for our values. As an overall objective, Arbonia promotes a resource-friendly future with energy-efficient, high-quality and durable products by outfitting highly energy-efficient new buildings and renovations. The employees show themselves to be dedicated, determined and reliable in their day-to-day work.

Cash

One of our important sustainability issues is the long-term economic stability of the company. The organic revenue growth and the operating profit on the EBITDA level are the central financial control parameters.
