Sustainability Report 2024

The year 2024 was marked by significant challenges including ongoing conflicts in Europe and the Middle East, rising geopolitical tensions, and considerable economic uncertainty. In this global environment, the Brand Group, in its 75th year of operation, continues to serve as a trusted partner for laboratories worldwide. Our brands BRAND, VACUUBRAND, and VITLAB, are at the forefront of solutions for today’s pressing issues in the fields of the life sciences, pharmaceuticals, chemistry, process analytics, and renewable energies. We are dedicated to promoting health, nutrition, scientific progress, and ensuring a sustainable energy supply.

Sustainability is not a passing trend for us; it is a fundamental belief. Responsible resource management and transparent corporate governance are as essential for the future of the Brand Group as they are for the future of our planet. In 2024, we have not only maintained our commitment to sustainability initiatives but also made significant advances in this area.

This report aims to provide transparent, fact-based information on our activities in the areas of Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) – addressing both progress and existing challenges. Greenwashing is not consistent with our values.
