WE ACT UPON:
EXAMPLES OF OUR SUSTAINABILITY COMMITMENTS

Green sustainable mechanical engineering

Products that are useful for humans and the environment

Foodstuff screw conveyors made of stainless steel. Screening technology for international recycling. Planetary carriers manufactured to a thousandth of a millimeter, that carry the wind power stations of the energy revolution: We are consequently orientated on sustainable products that we produce in an environmentally friendly manner.

Dual education in Romania

High commitment for more equal opportunity

Being a co-founder of the first private vocational school in the Romanian town Resita, we are fighting for better living conditions and opportunities through a good education of young persons.

Cooperation for nature protection: NABU Borken and SPALECK

Cooperation for nature protection

Joint commitment to nature conservation by companies

In spring 2021, we were able to enter into a cooperation with the NABU Kreisverband Borken e.V.. Our common goal: to encourage more environmental protection from companies. You can find more information here.

Environmental protection actions & training

SPALECK trainees are sustainability ambassadors

Whether renaturation, the independent construction of an insect hotel or environmental protection campaigns and excursions: We would like to communicate environmental protection and sustainability to our junior staff beyond professional concerns.

Roof greening at Spaleck

Climate protection in the industrial area

Green roofs at SPALECK

At our headquarters, the first industrial hall has received 350 m² of green roof. We are thus consistently implementing our strategy as a green machine builder. We will now gradually green further roofs of our industrial halls.

55,000 square meters of nature conservation area

Currently, a great conservation project is being built on 5.5 hectares in our neighborhood.

Integration of refugees

Education and work places

A good start into the world of work is important so that refugees can integrate themselves in Germany. For this purpose, we train people and offer them professional opportunities.

Company-orientated commitment for climate protection

PLAYFUL LEARNING FOR SUSTAINABILITY

In the scope of the initiative “Haus der kleinen Forscher” (House of small researchers), we are taking over the partnership for the kindergarten “Über den Wolken” in Bocholt with great conviction.

In the project, the teachers learn how small children can already be introduced to science, technology and environmental protection in playful experiments.

From our point of view, a huge step for more environmental protection and an active contribution to securing young talent.

Thea now says
VALUABLE recycled material

Passing on environmental protection

At SPALECK we are actively living environmental protection, and also sensitize it. With success! Since the father of Thea, the 2 year old daughter of an employee of us has been working here, always says “WERTstoff” (recyclable material) instead of refuse.

The SPALECK
health management

Active health promotion at the work place

Since 2011, we have been promoting the health of our team in various courses and campaigns. For this purpose, all employees were allowed to use a fitness studio on the company grounds.

We support students and their training

Otto Spaleck foundation
for innovative technologies

In order to strengthen the university location Bocholt and the German West Münsterland (near the Dutch border) and thus be prepared for upcoming challenges, Otto Spaleck founded the Otto Spaleck Foundation for Innovative Technologies in 2012.

Children´s house Casa Dorca

Our team organizes help for Romanian orphans

Bicycles, good clothing, toys as well as personal aid. 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

Frequently, the first idea comes from our employees. Being an employer, we participate and support the commitments of our teams. The blood donation at their workplace, building of a hotel for the bird type Martins or support of the Bocholter Tafel (association that distributes donated food to the poor or in need) are only three examples as to how we help together.
