IHK Interview – Pioneer of sustainable management

Rothschenk makes it onto the front page. Naturally, only the most important topics and leading companies end up there. This underlines our claim to be the “innovation leader” in the industry. Not only in our products, but also in their production steps, in the corporate structures and in the entire economic process.

An interview was conducted in advance with one of the managing directors of G&H GmbH in order to research the necessary background information for the IHK article.

The press office was also able to “absorb” the “spirit” of the team-oriented company.

Jürgen Schulte-Wieking, responsible for production planning at the company and in charge of introducing the sustainability focus areas, explained the various hurdles and challenges, but also the solutions.

On 01.03.23 the time had come: The new IHK magazine Würzburg-Schweinfurt IWM (Wirtschaft in Mainfranken) was published.

A special honor for us: Rothschenk as an editorial for the renowned business newspaper. As the IHK is currently focusing on the topic of “sustainability” in its reporting, it was important to select a company that stands out for its special commitment in this area.

G&H GmbH Rothschenk has already attracted attention in recent years with exceptional awards. In addition to the usual certifications such as DIN ISO 9001:2014, exceptional benchmarks have also been achieved: e.g. EMAS and even the highest achievable level at Ecovadis: platinum. The latter is achieved by less than 1% of all companies listed there.

The IHK contribution confirms the efforts of recent years. As a manufacturer of load securing systems, Rothschenk will continue along this path. Not only because more and more customers are demanding it, but above all for employees and the environment.

The presentation of the current EMAS certificate to Rothschenk was also perfectly timed. Dr. Kargerbauer came by in person on 22.02.23 to present the certificate to the Rothschenk team. In particular, we would like to thank Bianca Schmitt, Environmental Officer, and Johanna Ott, responsible for Integrated Management Project Management and Sustainability and Quality Management Officer.

Mr. Kargerbauer was given a brief tour of the company to gain an insight into the processes of a load securing manufacturer. In addition to the topic of sustainability, the focus was also on the challenges of maintaining in-house production in Germany. The Lower Franconian company is also expanding with a newly built logistics center. Here too, a district heating connection, KfW40 standards and photovoltaics are breaking new ground in the region.
