Stannol Managing Director Marco Dörr has been awarded the BAUM environmental and sustainability award in the small and medium-sized enterprises category. The award ceremony took place on November 11 in Dortmund.
Pioneer in the industry
The jury's statement: "Marco Dörr was the first in the soldering industry to initiate and implement the exclusive use of recycled tin or fairly mined and traded tin at Stannol. In this way, the family business has set new sustainability standards for this conflict raw material and had a positive impact on the industry."
"Receiving the BAUM Environmental and Sustainability Award is a great honour for us – and a strong signal: sustainability is not only created through political decisions or private commitment, but above all where companies act courageously, invest and take responsibility. We want to show that sustainable business is not a contradiction to success, but rather its foundation," emphasises Marco Dörr.
