Sustainability

Eco-Friendly Stainless steel is 100% recyclable, and Franke stainless steel is composed of nearly 70% recycled material. In the light of that commitment it is important to consider the sources of Franke Stainless Steel. Much of the world’s stainless steel comes from low cost countries, but Franke chooses to invest in high cost stainless steel from Germany, Spain, Belgium and Finland. Franke takes pride in the fact that its European mills’ use of only the most modern production equipment, further ensuring the purity of its recycled steel materials.

"Thinking and acting in a sustainable way is simply a must. For Franke, the path of sustainability was the right one for the last 100 years. I am convinced that it will also be the path to success for our customers, our employees and Franke in the coming 100 years. Ecological, economical, and social aspects shall be considered in whatever we do – from office to production floor.

Sustainability means fairness towards future generations. Everything we do should be made in a way that all of us can face our children with clear conscience.

I trust in all Franke employees to take responsibility and work on sustainable solutions for our customers.“ ~ Michael Pieper, President / CEO Franke Artemis Group
