we continously improve on innovations. and ourselves.

ROWAK AG uses systematic energy management as an effective instrument to continuously improve energy efficiency. The resulting cost reductions and the consistent utilization of these potentials contribute to strengthening our competitiveness. Energy management influences organizational and technical processes as well as employee behavior. From an economic perspective, it helps to reduce the overall operational energy consumption (including energy required for production) and the use of primary and auxiliary materials, while continuously improving the company’s energy efficiency.

The energy management system systematically records energy flows. It supports decision-making regarding investments in energy efficiency and enables us to meet the commitments defined in our energy policy. Furthermore, it facilitates the continuous improvement of our energy performance through a structured approach.

The energy management system governs and implements the energy policy—including strategic and operational objectives and action plans—as well as planning, implementation and operation, monitoring and measurement, control and corrective actions, internal audits, and regular management reviews.

REACH is the abbreviation for Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals. It has been legally binding for the entire manufacturing and processing industry since June 1, 2007 and replaced the previously applicable EU chemicals legislation.
The chemical industry is responsible for the impacts and risks of its products, including imported chemicals. The implementation of REACH was phased over several years and reached full registration requirements by 2018.

In close cooperation with our suppliers, our product specialists ensure the (pre-)registration of the raw materials used.

Under national and international environmental protection legislation (e.g. the EU End-of-Life Vehicles Directive, the EU CLP Regulation on hazardous substances, the German Circular Economy Act), every manufacturer and supplier in the automotive industry is responsible for the entire life cycle of their product. This ensures the traceability of widely used materials.
Leading global car manufacturers, including BMW AG, Daimler AG, FIAT, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Opel, Porsche, Volvo, Mitsubishi Motors, Peugeot Citroën, Renault, Toyota, Volkswagen AG and others, have established this uniform and standardised material data system.

ROWAK AG is registered in the IMDS with many products.
