Sustainability at PANTOPIX
We take responsibility
With targeted measures and regional initiatives, we are reducing our carbon footprint and actively contributing to climate protection.
Sustainability is not a one-off project for us, but an ongoing process. Since 2019, we have been working with CarboCert GmbH to specifically reduce our carbon footprint and actively contribute to climate protection.
Through certified CO₂ sequestration in soils, forests and agroforestry systems, we support regional sustainability initiatives and take responsibility for our environment. Together with CarboCert, we promote measures such as humus formation, reforestation and agroforestry – for long-term CO₂ storage, healthy ecosystems and more biodiversity.
We want to continue to expand our commitment in the future – with new projects and the motivation to become active ourselves.
Our commitment
Projects for a sustainable future
Plantings along the Schwarzach and the Mühlekanal
In spring 2025, we carried out a reforestation campaign together with CarboCert and a regional farmer. This involved planting 145 young trees to help store carbon and stabilize the local ecosystem. The newly planted trees support the water cycle, promote biodiversity and help to improve soil quality. We are delighted to have supported this sustainable project with EUR 5,000 and to be actively involved.
Climate-stable forest conversion with the help of a poplar forest canopy
In spring 2024, 500 poplars were planted at the Abler farm in Bodnegg as an understory forest on the open damaged areas caused by storms and snow pressure. Due to the climate-related collapse of the spruce stands, it is necessary to restore the central forest functions as quickly as possible. As a fast-growing tree species, the poplar is very well suited for this. It is easy to plant, heat-resistant and very fast-growing. As a result, it quickly forms a shade that protects and cools the soil. We were once again happy to support this project with EUR 5000.
Hedge planting at the Igel organic farm in Grünkraut
In 2023, we supported the Igel organic farm in Grünkraut with EUR 5,000 to plant hedges in order to create microclimate zones in the field and prevent water loss.
Hedges bind carbon both in their biomass and in the soil, which leads to long-term CO₂ storage. At the same time, hedges protect the soil from erosion and improve its structure, which further stabilizes carbon sequestration. They also promote biodiversity by providing a habitat for many animal and plant species and contribute to climate resilience by protecting agricultural land from extreme weather conditions such as wind or heavy rainfall.
