Integrated governance structure
The topic of sustainability is firmly anchored in the CEWE Group's Executive Board and has been managed by Thomas Mehls since 2016. He is responsible for the strategic orientation and implementation of sustainability measures at all locations. The Sustainability Circle coordinates the content of the sustainability strategy for the CEWE Group across all departments. At the locations in Germany and abroad, the respective managing directors are responsible for sustainability issues.
Management approaches
As early as 2011, CEWE had already created and put into practice a DIN EN ISO 14001 Environmental Management System at its four German digital printing production sites in Oldenburg, Germering, Mönchengladbach, and Freiburg. IIn the meantime, all major CEWE production sites and also Saxoprint and DeinDesign have a certified environmental management system. Additionally, the Energy Management System implemented at all German locations and Saxoprint are of DIN EN ISO 50001 standard. The management approach helps to establish social, ecological, and economic aspects while actively advancing our climate protection agenda. Both systems regularly undergo external audits and inspections.
