We urgently need energy. But as long as it is scarce, expensive and above all harmful to the environment, we must use it responsibly.

Sustainable energy across generations

Working together for a clean future - emission reduction as an industry guiding principle

The political focus is shifting from the pure consideration of energy efficiency to a more holistic approach. Material efficiency is essential to this.

Ecodesign is the holistic consideration of the environmental impact of a product. In the past, the focus was primarily on energy, but this has now changed.

So far, in the area of commercial kitchen appliances, only refrigerators have been affected by the energy label and an eco-design regulation. However, this will probably change in the foreseeable future. The focus is currently on commercial cooking appliances.

In terms of energy efficiency, it is crucial how the user operates the appliances. This is even more crucial than the energy efficiency of the appliances themselves.

So far, the only product group in commercial kitchens that is partly required to carry an energy label.

A high degree of innovation in the industry continuously reduces emissions and increases energy efficiency

If the fireplace is operated properly, particulate matter and other emissions are greatly minimized and fuel is saved
