SPIES Sustainability Report 2024

Together for a sustainable future

For SPIES, sustainability means achieving balance - with our environment, our employees and all other stakeholders. Our vision of sustainability is based on the well-known three pillars - economy, ecology and social affairs - which harmonize in their interaction with each other. Therefore we pursue the goals of these three perspectives in equal measure, mastering the challenges of tomorrow and securing the future.

SPIES has selected Option B for its 2024 Sustainability Report, meaning that it will report on the basis of the basic module and the supplementary module of the VSME standard. The decision to use this extended reporting format ensures that, in addition to the basic disclosure require-ments, more in-depth and comprehensive aspects of sustainability performance are also taken into ac-count. This enables a highly transparent and holistic presentation of the company’s environmental, social and governance-related development. 

This sustainability report provides a clear overview of the progress we have made, the challenges we face and our goals, demonstrating how we continue to pursue our path with determination: with clear values, a responsible vision for the future and a firm conviction that sustainability is the foundation for our long-term success.

SPIES pursues a holistic sustainability strategy. In terms of climate protection, the company relies on an ISO 50001–certified energy management system, CO₂ footprint calculations across all scopes, and efficiency measures with the aim of achieving climate-neutral production in Scopes 1 and 2. Circular economy principles are strengthened through recyclable mono-material packaging, reusable solutions, and the internal reuse of materials. Product design focuses on resource efficiency, high quality, and sustainable innovation. At the same time, SPIES takes responsibility for its employees and society through occupational safety, health programs, professional development, and strong regional engagement.

Together for a climate-friendly future

A long-term approach is fundamental to our family business and is embedded in our DNA. This is also reflected in our commitment to actively contributing to environmental protection and taking responsibility for future generations. 

In collaboration with our partner ASSMANN Büromöbel GmbH & Co. KG, we have developed an environmental strategy for our joint site in Melle to leverage synergies and to work together on solutions for an environmentally friendly future. This document outlines our corporate environmental strategy and shows how we as a company are working to reduce our emissions, optimise our processes and use our innovative strength to protect the environment in the long term, following a scientific decarbonisation pathway to substantially reduce our emissions. We are also considering a binding commitment and validation in accordance with SBTi, which may require adjustments to the base year and specific targets.
