At KSB, sustainability is not just a word; it is something we put into daily practice at all of our locations. As a successful company with global operations, KSB is aware of its responsibility towards the environment and society. The company has therefore made striking a balance between profitable growth and social responsibility the foundation for its actions.
We continuously improve our products, processes, and services to meet the demands of sustainable development and set new benchmarks in the industry.
In accordance with our values, we commit to upholding the principles of the following internationally recognized standards:
- The Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC)
- The United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights
- The eight fundamental Conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO)
- The OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises
We also require all of our suppliers and business partners to comply with these standards.
KSB supports the objectives of the Kyoto Protocol and acts in an ecologically responsible manner in all areas of the company. Driven by this commitment, we practice comprehensive sustainability management, develop forward-looking products, and implement global management systems aligned with international standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 26000.
KSB promotes social and ecological projects worldwide. In so doing we aim to support young people, protect the environment and secure the supply of drinking water. Delivering education, environmental protection and access to clean drinking water for everyone – these are some of the great challenges of our time. In order to address these issues, KSB is involved in more than 100 social projects and initiatives which support people’s capacity to determine their own future.
