"We want to be a pioneer"

ipf electronic publishes sustainability report

ipf electronic is aware of its social, societal and corporate responsibility in all respects. This is why the sensor specialist from Altena in the Sauerland region is now presenting its first sustainability report for 2022.

Since 2017, capital market-oriented companies with more than 500 employees and an annual turnover of more than 40 million euros have been required to report on sustainability in Germany and the EU. The new EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), which is now also binding for SMEs, came into force in January 2023. From 2024, it is linked to a corresponding reporting obligation for the previous year, i.e. initially for the 2023 financial year.

Although ipf electronic is not yet obliged to produce a sustainability report, the company has decided to submit a report for the 2022 financial year this year.

"We want to lead the way in the use of valuable resources, environmental protection, measures to combat climate change and the protection of human rights. It was therefore very important for us to think about sustainability at an early stage in order to demonstrate our commitment to society and the environment as a pioneer. Our efforts are aimed at a future for our company, our customers and society that is characterized by sustainability. We can only achieve this goal by joining forces, partnerships and cooperation," says Dirk Neuhaus, Managing Director of ipf electronic gmbh.

The sustainability report for 2023 is available for download under "News" on the ipf electronic website.
