We, too, know that climate neutrality is becoming increasingly important for our customers.<\/p>\n
Even during the initial planning for our new building project, we were able to integrate numerous sustainability goals into the development plan.<\/p>\n
With ten boreholes, each 100 meters deep, and two heat pumps, all production areas and offices are heated in winter and cooled in summer. The photovoltaic system installed on the roof of the production facility with an output of 99 kWp supplies us with green electricity. With triple glazing of the windows and a highly thermally insulated construction, maximum energy efficiency and cost savings are achieved.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t![\"gdoptics-elektromobilitaet-ladestationen\"](\"https:\/\/gdoptics.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/gdoptics-elektromobilitaet-ladestationen.jpg\" "\\"gdoptics-elektromobilitaet-ladestationen\\"")

Multiple use of resources<\/h5>
On the way to climate neutrality, GD Optics has converted its company cars to electric vehicles and offers eight charging stations on the premises. Two cisterns are used to collect surface water for further use, for example to irrigate the green areas and plantings on the site, which covers a total of 7,800 square meters. Once the cisterns are full, the water is discharged into the adjacent ditch, thus not polluting the surrounding canals.<\/p>\n\t\t
Produce foresightedly<\/h5>
The wastewater generated during glass processing is pre-cleaned in the plant before it is discharged into the sewage system. For this purpose, we have installed a new wastewater treatment plant that filters out suspended solids. Our machines are also cooled by a cooling water cistern installed by us.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t![\"gdoptics-nachhaltigkeit-fahrrad-mensch-und-umwelt\"](\"https:\/\/gdoptics.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/gdoptics-nachhaltigkeit-fahrrad-mensch-und-umwelt-scaled.jpg\" "\\"gdoptics-nachhaltigkeit-fahrrad-mensch-und-umwelt\\"")

Advantages for people and the environment<\/h5>
The employees of GD Optics also benefit from numerous advantages that were taken into account in the course of the new building. For example, a covered bicycle parking area was built at the new location and the new ventilation system has a heat recovery system so that floor cooling in many rooms means that the operation of the existing air conditioning systems can be dispensed with.<\/p>\n\t\t
Innovation and sustainability<\/h5>
“We strive to develop the basis for innovative solutions through our products that provide answers for a better future.
