Only a sound environment can provide healthy and naturally matured food; which is why Tartex advocates organic farming, sustainable farming methods and fair trade. The high demands we make on our partners and suppliers have also become an internal standard for us: ecological and business aspects enjoy equal status at our company. Below are a few examples.
Our production processes run on low heat in order to save resources, reduce emissions and manufacture our products in the most nutrient-preserving and natural manner possible. In doing so, we use 100% certified green electricity from the region – obtained from water, sun, biomass and wind.
In the early 90s, we introduced systematic separation of recyclable material and elimination of residual waste in our administration and production processes. Since then, coloured glass, plastics, cardboard and paper, metal, aluminium and wood have been collected in separate containers. The percentage of residual waste is now negligible.
Our environmental management system covers the planning, controlling, monitoring and improvement of all measures which promote ecological balance and the protection of natural resources. This includes a sustainable style of operational and staff management. Every year, we set ourselves new goals to realize our environmentally-friendly values.
