Since its inception in 1948, the WEPA Group has been a family-owned business with a focus on sustainability.
Sustainability is firmly rooted in our corporate culture and is an integral part of our corporate strategy. Our holistic approach balances economic, ecological and social aspects.
To preserve and, if possible, improve our quality of life, this triad includes the sensible and efficient use of raw materials and capital, know-how and experience, machines and processes. As a family business, we take responsibility for our future and that of the generations to come.
We are aware of the present-day effects our actions have on the world of tomorrow. In the context of our sustainability management, we fulfil our responsibility in the area of conflict that arises from being a commercial enterprise with regional roots and simultaneously operating throughout Europe. This generates transparency, trust and added value for the entire WEPA Group with all stakeholders – from employees to customers.
Our self-image as a sustainable family business has always included having trustworthy co-operation with our external partners.
We work with a number of partners who share our holistic approach to sustainability. From environmental to social projects, we continue to learn and benefit from our shared experiences, allowing us to help both communities and the environment.
