At Draftex, sustainability is at the core of our operations. We understand the importance of reducing our environmental impact and take a proactive approach to make a difference today and for future generations.
The environmental impact of any company begins with its supply chain. At Draftex, we carefully select suppliers whose raw material sources meet the highest environmental standards. This ensures that our operations are not only efficient but also aligned with our commitment to sustainability. By working closely with environmentally responsible partners, we significantly reduce the carbon footprint of our production processes.
Sustainability starts with awareness. At Draftex, we actively engage our employees in waste segregation campaigns and encourage eco-friendly practices both in and outside the workplace. Through continuous education and support, we aim to inspire a culture of responsibility that extends beyond the factory walls.
Innovation is key to meaningful change. Our patented extrusion process, which produces two seals in a single extruder cycle, has revolutionized our manufacturing. This breakthrough has enabled us to achieve a remarkable 50% reduction in CO2 emissions throughout the process—setting a new benchmark for sustainable production in the automotive industry.
As a forward-thinking supplier, Draftex is committed to driving progress in environmental stewardship. By prioritizing sustainability in every aspect of our business, we empower our customers to meet their CO2 reduction targets. Together, we are shaping a greener future for the automotive industry and beyond.
We support the aspirations of our employees to reduce their carbon footprint and the actual savings and health benefits. We facilitate this through our ‘E-bike’ programme!
The Viersien Region programme has enabled us to create optimal public transport conditions for our employees. The bus stops are located directly in front of the entrance to Draftex Automotive GmbH and the arrival and departure times of the buses are adapted to the individual shifts.
Our Double Extrusion process revolutionizes seal production by delivering twice the output in a single cycle, cutting CO₂ emissions by 50% and optimizing resource efficiency. It’s not just about making more—it’s about making better.
Small habits can have a huge impact on energy savings. We truly believe that even such small steps as running our new website in low energy dark mode can make a difference.
We took part in the mobility project to identify potential and starting points with regard to changing our employees’ transport mobility in order to make it easier for them to travel to and from work every day or to show them new ways of doing so.
Furthermore, protecting the environment through the efficient use of resources and the avoidance of emissions, waste and scrap is a fundamental part of our corporate philosophy. Compliance with energy-related legal requirements and minimising energy intensity and C02 emissions are our targets. Participation in the project also promotes networking with other companies in the neighbourhood.
