RESPONSIBILITY

SUSTAIN­ABLE? WHAT WE DO BEST.

We accept responsibility for future generations.

Ensuring that our planet remains habitable is the great challenge of our time. We want to play a responsible and active role in tackling this issue facing mankind while, at the same time, drawing on innovative ideas to seize our opportunities for the future.

Generating SUSTAINED 
SUCCESS throug sustainability.

Our name is both our vision and our mission: Progress stands for improving, moving forward and innovating. We know that innovations can survive only if they are environmentally sustainable and help protect the climate and global health. If people are valued, from the time of the idea right up to implementation, and paid appropriately for their services.

This is why we take a forward-looking and sustainable view of mobility. Our lightweight construction solutions always keep energy consumption as low as possible, conserving resources and, in turn, the environment. Our product solutions are used in all aspects of modern, pioneering vehicle manufacturing. As part of this, our focus is not only on making vehicles more environmentally friendly, we also ensure that they are safer and more comfortable.

Our most important raw material is steel. Steel is fully recyclable and in theory can be reused indefinitely! This means that our product solutions are too. Even after a vehicle’s service life ends, they continue to save resources and CO₂.

So when it comes to taking a conscientious approach to CO₂, steel remains our first choice. Ultimately, supposed alternatives such as aluminum, plastic and carbon can barely be recycled, if at all. Our steel lightweight construction solutions also help combat the “plastification” of our planet.

Everything that we do is guided by our environmental overall strategy: continuously increasing production efficiency and reducing material consumption. We already use green electricity, organize our logistics in a way that conserves resources and are expanding our own electro mobility. This allows us to constantly reduce specific emissions, raw materials and operating material consumption, residuals and waste.

Our services play an active role in helping save the climate. Accordingly, they are always “good for the planet”. As a company, we are also well on track to achieve carbon neutrality.

We make steel lightweight. With the lowest possible wall thicknesses. In this way steel becomes doubly sustainable: minimized use of resources – indefinitely recyclable.
