SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY
Ascendor soft facts
At Ascendor, the quality of life and location as well as the topics of environment, sustainability and education are in the foreground. As a regional employer, social and ecological aspects are particularly important to us. We see our responsibility towards our employees and the environment as an opportunity and are constantly working to act sustainably and socially.

Lean Management
Ascendor has developed a multi-year phased plan in which the lean management topics are implemented. The complete switch to lean management ensures minimal waste in all areas. No unnecessary energy is used during production, attention is paid to minimising waste and idle times are minimised.

Synergies with sister company Biohort
In order to operate even more sustainably, there are synergies with the sister company Biohort. For example, the waste wood from Ascendor is used by Biohort in its heating plant. The packaging scraps that would be waste at Biohort are used by Ascendor to pack lifts.

CHRISTMAS
ASCENDOR SUPPORTS FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES
As a family business, it's that time of year again when we think more about our neighbours. As in previous years, we are therefore supporting social organisations in our region with a Christmas donation. We have donated a total of 2,000 euros to the Tips and Rundschau fundraising campaigns. This will help families in need financially.
