ewe produces sustainably

Environmental responsibility is an essential part of the value system for ewe kitchens and, just like sustainability, has been driven forward for years on its own responsibility.

Not because it is “trendy”. Nor is it because there are certain regulations. But because ewe kitchen is aware of its ecological, but above all its economic and social responsibility.

  • Two own production sites in Wels and Freistadt
  • Regional employer with regional suppliers. This keeps the added value in the country and strengthens the domestic economy.
  • Distances are kept short, CO2 emissions are reduced
  • Certified according to ISO 14001 since 2000 – commitment not only to the avoidance of pollutants in production, but also to the use of environmentally friendly energy such as district heating at the Wels site and a photovoltaic system with an output of 200kWp for production in Freistadt

Acting ecologically in a holistic way is not just something that ewe kitchen takes for granted. It is also imperative to maintain an intact and healthy environment for future generations.
That is why ewe kitchen attaches great importance to the most careful selection of materials and suppliers. And subjects its products and / or raw materials to more stringent tests than they actually have to.

This stems on the one hand from the need to preserve the environment and on the other hand from the desire to respond to the modern living conditions of today.
