Sustainability Report 2023

Our sustainability report has two objectives. On the one hand, we would like to provide information on how we, as a medium-sized family business, live corporate and social responsibility. Secondly, it is our logbook, in which we record and – very importantly – update our sustainability course. In doing so, we are largely guided by the GRI Core 2016 guidelines for CSR reporting and are integrating the ESRS guidelines, which will be mandatory for us from 2026, in initial points.

Examples of our commitment to sustainability

SPALECK – Green machine builder

Products that benefit people and the environment

Welded assemblies such as stainless steel food conveyor screws. Screening machines for international recycling. Precision parts & planet carriers manufactured to an accuracy of a thousandth of a millimeter, which help to support the energy transition in wind turbines. Forward-looking water treatment systems: We are consistently focused on sustainable products that we produce in an environmentally friendly way.

Dual training in Romania

Strong commitment to more equal opportunities

As co-founders of the first private vocational school in Resita, Romania, we are fighting for better living conditions and opportunities through a good education for young people.

Kooperation für Naturschutz - NABU und SPALECK arbeiten zusammen

Cooperation for nature conservation

Joint commitment to nature conservation by companies

In spring 2021, we entered into a partnership with the NABU Borken district association. Our common goal: to encourage more environmental protection from companies. Further information can be found here.

Environmental protection campaigns & training

SPALECK trainees are sustainability ambassadors

Whether renaturation, the independent construction of an insect hotel or environmental protection activities & excursions: We want to teach our young people about environmental protection and sustainability beyond their professional interests.

Roof greening at SPALECK

The first industrial hall at our headquarters has been given 350 m² of green roof. We are thus consistently implementing our strategy as a green mechanical engineering company. We will now gradually be greening more roofs on our industrial buildings.

55,000 square meters of nature conservation

A great nature conservation project is currently being built on 5.5 hectares in our neighborhood.

Integration of refugees

Training and jobs

A good start in the world of work is important so that refugees can integrate in Germany. To this end, we train people and offer them career opportunities. Find out more about our training in Bocholt and our other locations.

Internal company commitment to climate protection

Member of the ÖkoPROFIT Club

As a company, we are also looking at what we can do internally to protect the climate and conserve resources. An important building block here is the ÖKOPROFIT project, in which we work together with other companies in the Borken district to drive forward internal implementation.

We are a partner of the Blue Competence sustainability initiative.

Learning sustainability through play

It is with great conviction that we sponsor the Bocholt kindergarten “Über den Wolken” as part of the “Haus der kleinen Forscher” initiative.

In the project, educators learn how young children can be introduced to science, technology and environmental protection through playful experiments.

In our view, this is a major step towards greater environmental protection and an active contribution to securing the next generation.

Thea now says WERTstoff

Otto Spaleck Foundation

Casa Dorca children’s home

Our team organizes help for Romanian orphans

Bicycles, good children’s clothing, toys and personal help: our employees in Germany and Romania help the children from the Casa Dorca project.

BLOOD DONATION @ SPALECK

Social commitment and environmental protection in the team

The first idea often comes from our employees. As an employer, we participate in and support the commitment of our team. Donating blood at the workplace, building a hotel for swallows and supporting the Bocholt food bank are just three examples of how we help together.
