Home Quality & sustainability
Responsibility and sustainability are more important today than ever before. At Firner Trautwein, we never stand still and are constantly evolving – always taking a long-term perspective. After all, success is only sustainable if it is conceived in harmony with our environment.
The ultimate goal of customer satisfaction requires clear and stable processes as well as a high degree of quality awareness on the part of everyone involved. Numerous audits by external companies and renowned customers have encouraged us at Firner Trautwein to continue on our chosen path by complying with the highest customer requirements.
We are also aware of our responsibility to comply with applicable laws and guidelines and to demand compliance within our supply chain. The delivery of components in accordance with the REACH regulation or RoHS directive is therefore our standard. Compliance is more important to us than ever!
Quality in a company like ours is not only a question of state-of-the-art machines, but above all of our employees. At Firner Trautwein, we attach great importance to a liberal environment that is characterized by clarity, openness, tolerance and transparency and in which everyone is treated with dignity. We want to create an environment in which people enjoy working and getting involved, because smooth processes and high-quality results can only be achieved if we think sustainably in terms of staff care and development.
Respect and reliability are not only a matter close to our hearts when dealing with our employees, but also in our dealings with our customers and the environment. As a result, we have enjoyed the deep trust of our employees and our customers for many years. We see this success as the result of our prudent thinking and actions.
Sustainability and energy efficiency have a high priority in the corporate environment at this time and are also a key issue at Firner Trautwein. For example, we use the waste heat from our production processes for heating and cooling at our site in Dunningen. We think about tomorrow today and work according to comprehensive environmental, energy and quality management.
Firner Trautwein is moving things forward – together. This seems to be the right path so far and we will therefore continue to follow it consistently. We see the responsible use of resources as a crucial task for the future. After all, prudent action creates sustainable success.

Firner Trautwein places the highest demands on the quality of its work. We work in a customer-oriented manner and always strive to improve.
This demand requires the commitment of every employee. Team spirit, partnership and the constant will to develop further are of particular importance.

Firner Trautwein relies on sustainable construction methods. For example, the generous glazing of the façade at both locations allows plenty of natural daylight and thus a reduction in energy costs. As a result, we are well below the statutory energy requirements. We also rely on sustainable and resource-saving building technology in our company.
Highest precision always goes hand in hand with great responsibility and reliability – both in terms of work and in dealing with our planet. Firner Trautwein sees the earth as the basis of our existence and therefore as particularly worthy of protection.
Our corporate guidelines therefore commit us to the careful use of resources and the environmentally friendly use of resources.
Our environmental management is certified according to ISO 14001:2015.
A lot of waste heat is produced in a production facility, which we at Firner Trautwein use all year round for heating, cooling and hot water preparation. Passive and active component cooling systems ensure a uniform room temperature in production and administration.
We generate a significant proportion of our energy requirements ourselves using photovoltaic systems.
As a company that thinks long-term, we are committed to reducing our operating costs and increasing our competitiveness. By identifying and consistently exploiting energy and savings potential, we can achieve this while at the same time making an important contribution to reducing CO2 emissions.
In doing so, we ensure transparency of energy flows and constantly improve our energy use. We also see it as our task to create awareness of the importance of this among all employees.
Our energy management is certified in accordance with ISO 50001:2018
The perfect combination of man and machine is what produces turned parts with the highest precision – to perfectly match your requirements.
