Your positive environmental balance
is our responsibility
For many of our customers, the environmental balance of their products plays an important role. If different application solutions based on different materials are available, the sustainability of the Delignit® product can be the deciding factor.
Use of renewable raw materials - A valuable contribution to climate protection
The forest is a chemical factory powered by the sun - its trees produce carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air, as well as water and nutrients from the soil, wood, bark and foliage. In addition, oxygen (O2) is released. Moreover, this happens without disturbance, without waste and exhaust gases, quietly, environmentally friendly and fully automatically. In addition, the forest fulfils the function of a local recreation area and green lung.
For every cubic metre of wood, a tree has filtered about 900 kilograms of carbon dioxide from the air and stored about 250 kilograms of carbon dioxide.
In this way, more than 20 times as much carbon dioxide is stored in European forests as is emitted annually. Forests and the wood taken from them and processed further thus represent an important sink for the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.
By processing them into particularly wear-resistant and thus long-lasting Delignit® components and systems, the release through rotting or thermal decomposition is delayed and the storage effect is extended by the service life.
Sustainability certificate - SAQ
Drive Sustainability
Within the framework of the SAQ process (Self-Assessment-Questionnaire), the "drive sustainability" initiative regularly reviews and evaluates sustainability issues. Many of the world's largest OEM's (original equipment manufacturers) belong to the initiative. The positive company ranking of Blomberger Holzindustrie GmbH confirms its high standards in areas such as corporate governance, the environment, working conditions and human rights, supplier management, business ethics and responsible procurement.
Our certificates
PEFC certificate
The PEFC certificate is a transparent and independent system for ensuring sustainable forest management and is based on very strict guidelines for the sustainable management of forests. This management is controlled by competent and independent organisations. The entire product manufacturing process - from the raw material to the finished product - is certified and controlled by independent experts.
ISO 14001
ISO 14001 covers all aspects that ensure the continuous improvement of environmental performance. It defines the establishment, implementation, maintenance and continuous improvement of an environmental management system. The overall objective of an ISO 14001 certification is to promote environmental protection, reduce environmental impacts and thus correctly implement environmental goals in accordance with economic, social and political requirements.
ISO 50001
ISO 50001 is an international standard that sets out the require-ments for a company to implement, enforce and improve its energy management system. Revised in 2018, the ISO standards ensure that companies can improve their energy performance, reduce carbon emissions and cut energy costs by using their energy more efficiently.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
The regulation introduced by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States regarding formaldehyde emissions for wood-based materials is certified by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). The EPA TSCA Title VI (CARB ULEF) certification for plywood products was issued by the Third Party Certifier (TCP) "Entwicklungs- und Prüflabor Holztechnologie GmbH" (EPH).
