Sustainability

Taking responsibility at Dräger

—

For us, our guiding principle of Technology for Life means taking responsibility. It gives greater meaning to the work we carry out and creates a sustainable foundation for our business model. We are concentrating our efforts on Environment & Society, Customers & Products and Company & Employees, with our goal to continue improving in these areas. Without social and environmental sustainability throughout all aspects of our supply chains, we are certain that no lasting economic progress will be achieved – and vice versa.

Sustainability Reports

—

Our annual sustainability report covers the period from January 1st to December 31st, 2024, and was last published on March 31th, 2025. In preparation for the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), this was integrated into the management report of the annual report for the first time. The content is based on the results of a double materiality analysis in accordance with the CSRD and therefore includes information on climate change, the use of resources, our employees, our value chains and our corporate policy.

Recognition of our sustainability performance

Sustainability and responsible corporate management are key approaches at Dräger. An ESG rating indicates how well a company is performing in terms of the environment, society, and governance. Regular audits carried out by renowned rating agencies provide us with valuable feedback on how to design our processes to be even more sustainable, and to adequately prepare for future challenges. We are delighted to have been awarded “Silver” status by the EcoVadis Institute following an audit in 2024, with our company receiving a total of 72 out of 100 points.
