As a forward-looking company with a history dating back to 1909, we take responsibility. For people. For the environment. For our society. To us, sustainability is not just a trend, it’s an attitude reflected in our mission and values. Our concept of sustainability always considers the three pillars of ecology, the economy, and social issues. We operate in an industry that is not inherently sustainable. This makes it all the more important for us to drive change. We are not perfect, but we are committed. We want to make this world a little bit more beautiful and a little bit better with our spaces. Will you join us in taking responsibility for greater sustainability?
Our investments are not only in technology and innovation, but also in knowledge and responsibility. We use sustainable materials, rely on energy-efficient processes, and are committed to continuously improving our ecological footprint. The earlier we are involved in the planning of a project as a partner, the greater our impact. This is because smart, flexible design concepts can save resources and significantly extend the lifespan of rooms and room solutions.
We take responsibility for people, both within and beyond our company. We create a respectful, motivating and meaningful working environment in which our employees can fulfil their potential, regardless of their origin, gender, age or religion. At the same time, we fulfil our social responsibilities by training young people, collaborating with educational institutions, and participating in social projects and campaigns. This includes sponsoring sports clubs and international projects in war zones, such as ART HELPS.
At Knoblauch, we view economics as both a business indicator and the responsible design of our entire value chain. To us, sustainable growth means investing in long-term relationships with customers, suppliers and employees, as well as using resources responsibly. This applies to both human and material resources. Therefore, our focus is not on short-term profit maximisation, but on long-term, balanced economic activity for the benefit of future generations.
We were able to implement a pioneering project with our client Globetrotter: stores based on the Re:Think shopfitting concept. This circular approach involves using almost exclusively second-hand furniture.
Achieving sustainability and social responsibility is not possible alone. That is why we rely on strong partnerships with like-minded organisations that share our values and uphold the same high standards of ethics, environmental awareness and social commitment. Let’s start working together!
"Efficiency is the most powerful tool for making better use of resources, reducing environmental impact, and encouraging innovation." 
"Reuse in shopfitting means more planning with existing resources." 
"We think in terms of generations, not short-term trends." 
"The idea behind a project has the greatest impact in terms of sustainability." 
"Standard packaging is rubbish. Literally. We use custom-fit cardboard boxes that are just the right size, so they don't place an unnecessary burden on the environment.” 
"Meaningful development occurs when people are allowed to live up to their potential for sustainable success, creating a world in which humanity still matters."
