As a family enterprise, we often choose the long-term and therefore sustainable solution.

From this point of view, it is only obvious for us to minimize the ecological damage that is related to the added value in the sense of long-term sustainability.

Since 2005, our production and administrative facilities in Tuttlingen have been powered entirely by ‘green’ electricity from Greenpeace Energy. In addition, three photovoltaic systems with a capacity of approximately 100 kWp are installed on our roofs. We are also committed to electric mobility in our company car fleet, and currently cover over two-thirds of our daily journeys using our electric power. 

We also try to relieve the environment in other field. For example, we collaborate specifically with logistics companies such as GLS, which centralize compensation, reduction and avoidance of CO2-emissions and make parcel shipping 100 percent climate-neutral. That's why we force digital storage and if not possible we use exclusively recycling paper for internal purposes.

Tekno-Medical supports the German Red Cross in its campaign for dental operations in Peru.

Since 1995 the German Red Cross has been sending medical students to Peru. They use a well-established network with the Cruz Roja Peruana and the Rotary Club Independencia. Once a year for several weeks, a team of physicians is in Peru to perform interventions on patients with cleft lips and jaws and cleft palates. All kind of interventions related to this surgical field as well as auricle corrections are a daily occurrence. Patients of any age, many infants with prime occlusion operations, but also difficult repeat-interventions of failed first operations, final nose-lip-corrections on adolescents constitute complex tasks for the team.
