Sustainability at Prinzhorn Group

At Prinzhorn Group, we take concrete measures based on decades of experience and profound insights into our business, customers, and the market. Recognizing the inherent connection between strategic corporate development and sustainability, we have long understood that they are interwoven and mutually reinforcing, they go hand in hand

We live circularity

Prinzhorn exemplifies circularity like no other. Every day, we demonstrate how a circular business model can succeed and lead to constant, reliable results.

Realizing our strategy

Our strategy COMPASS expresses in words our long-standing commitment to sustainability, which has always been reflected in the circularity of our business model. 

The pillars of our purpose

Our purpose “We live circularity” describes us perfectly, it shows who we really are and what we stand for. It is enclosed by our strong corporate values: people, performance, and responsibility. 

Decarbonization in the spotlight

With an investment volume of 250 million euros, we were able to achieve a particularly positive effect on the CO2 footprint of our production by building an RDF power plant in Spremberg and renewing energy production from lignite to a gas turbine in Pitten.
