We plan, monitor and evaluate all our processes in terms of their environmental relevance. We achieved DIN EN ISO 14001 certification back in 1999.
Our current energy management system is based on DIN EN ISO 50001, which is certified until 2020.
Ensuring that energy-efficient JUMO products also use little energy in their manufacture is an important contribution to climate protection and the conservation of natural resources. For this reason, we have consistently installed a system in recent years to monitor our energy consumption within the company and to improve the energy efficiency of our processes.
The amount of energy used by JUMO in the manufacture of our products is so low that in 2020 we decided to replace the energy management system according to DIN EN ISO 50001 with an energy audit according to DIN EN 16247.
In the Hesse Environmental Alliance, we actively participate in the dialog between business and administration level to make operational environmental protection as efficient as possible. Here we focus on 6 goals in particular:
• Attractive framework conditions for Hesse as a business location
• Strengthening the personal responsibility of Hessian companies
• Ensuring a high Hessian environmental standard
• Reducing of environmental legislation to the necessary level
• Cooperative and sustainable orientation of environmental policy
• Support for municipal environmental and climate protection
Sustainable business is more important than ever. The Hesse sustainability strategy has provided a platform for the state in which societal groups such as companies, municipalities, and schools can get involved together.
At least 100 companies are to commit to greater climate protection as a result of which they will present their activities and plans for CO2 reduction in an action plan. We ourselves have been documenting our commitment to environmental protection with the DIN EN ISO 14001 management system for almost 12 years, so that signing the charter for climate protection was a logical step.
As a supplier of measurement and control technology, our solutions were rated as control and monitoring devices for commercial use (B2B) by stiftung ear in 2005 (Register no. 92688874).
In accordance with the foundation's guidelines, we comply with all legal requirements regarding registration, returns, disposal, and recycling as well as volume notifications and reporting to the authorities.

The mental and physical health of our employees is our top priority. We therefore attach great importance to the safe design of our workplaces and processes. Also, we ensure compliance with all legal regulations on occupational safety and health. These include avoiding work-related hazards and minimizing SGA risks by implementing effective prevention and protective measures. After all, only continuous improvement in occupational safety enables adaptation to changes in the working world.
In this context, our management system for occupational safety & health protection was merged with the already established management systems for quality, environment, and energy to form an integrated management system in 2023.
Since 1999 we have committed ourselves to environmental protection through the certification in accordance with DIN EN ISO 14001 - here we are also engaged beyond the legal necessities. This includes, in particular, the extensive avoidance of hazardous substances and the conservation of finite resources in our production. Upon request, we will gladly confirm that certain devices comply with the RoHS directives and, if applicable, the EU declaration of conformity.
REACH, a new Europe-wide chemicals law, was introduced on June 1, 2007, making manufacturers and importers of chemicals responsible for the safe handling of their substances. This agreement also applies to downstream users.
Our devices are continuously tested and the information updated in the context of the semi-annual updates of the REACH candidate list (SVHC). If substances listed in the current REACH regulation as "SVHC - Substances of Very High Concern" should exceed the permissible limit values in our products, we will inform our customers immediately in accordance with Article 33 of the EU Chemicals Regulation 1907/2006.
Upon sending a request to materialcompliance@jumo.net, we will gladly confirm that certain devices comply with the currently valid REACH regulation.
As a supplier to various U.S. companies, we are required to comply with all relevant legal requirements and regulations.
