Sustainability as a corporate principle:
– How Vario Pack takes responsibility

Homburg, August 2025 – Whether logistics, packaging, or industrial container cleaning: Vario Pack GmbH & Co. KG demonstrates how industrial services and sustainability can be successfully combined. The company based in Homburg has been actively driving ecological and resource-saving measures for years – with visible success.

“Sustainability is not an add-on for us, but part of our corporate DNA,” explains management. As an industrial service provider, Vario Pack is aware of its role within global supply chains – and acts accordingly. Instead of relying solely on compensation, the company has consistently invested in the energetic, infrastructural, and procedural future of the business in recent years.

Technology Meets Responsibility: Sustainability in Practice
Vario Pack has already implemented numerous projects that reduce CO₂ emissions and measurably decrease resource consumption:

  • Photovoltaic systems on factory roofs generate electricity from solar energy for self-supply.
  • Combined heat and power plants (CHP) produce electricity and heat locally and highly efficiently.
  • Wastewater treatment systems in container cleaning enable the reuse of process water, thereby reducing fresh water consumption.
  • The company also relies on e-mobility in its fleet – not only for passenger vehicles but also for trucks, a pioneering move within the industrial sector.
  • Particularly noteworthy is participation in the internationally recognized CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project). Vario Pack regularly publishes its CO₂ emission data, undergoes independent evaluation, and transparently positions itself within an international sustainability ranking – a step many companies still shy away from.

Vision Beyond the Factory Gates

At Vario Pack, sustainability is understood not only as a technical challenge. The treatment of employees, partners, and processes is also continuously developed with sustainability in mind. Short transport routes, regional partnerships, environmentally friendly packaging solutions, and a consistently process-oriented mindset are part of the company’s self-image.

“Sustainability means progress with responsibility – on all levels,” the company states.

The journey is far from over. New projects are already in planning – with the clear goal of not only relieving future generations but actively handing over a better industry to them.
