Salamander in Türkheim on its way to becoming a climate-neutral company
Sustainability has a long tradition at Salamander and is lived through resource-saving production and the responsible use of raw materials. The Salamander founder, Jakob Sigle, deliberately chose the location in Türkheim in order to use the natural energy resource of water and to act largely independently due to its proximity to the Wertach. Thanks to this wise, entrepreneurial decision, it is now the case that around eight percent of the electricity consumption is permanently covered by the company's own hydroelectric power plants, which have been located on the company premises in Türkheim for over 100 years. Salamander is currently purchasing a further 20 % of green electricity.
