Financial Informatics Enters the Realm of Environmental Sustainability: Achieves EMAS Certification for Climate Protection

Finanz Informatik, a leading digitalization partner, has been certified under the European Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS). This prestigious certification confirms that Finanz Informatik's measures and processes in the area of environmental protection meet the highest standards.

The certification process was a complex endeavour, involving resource distribution, employee training, data collection, and documentation. Finanz Informatik's management system was implemented meticulously to fulfil the requirements of the Energy Efficiency Act (EnEfG) with the introduction of EMAS.

Thomas Steigleder, CEO of the IHK Frankfurt am Main for the area of innovation and environment, acknowledged the complexity of the process. He presented the certification to Finanz Informatik, emphasizing the company's commitment to environmental protection.

Finanz Informatik's data centers are designed in an energy-efficient manner, operated with green electricity, and heat adjacent office buildings with waste heat. This innovative approach not only reduces the company's carbon footprint but also contributes to energy savings.

The EMAS certification is not a one-time achievement. It requires annual monitoring audits and a full recertification every three years. Finanz Informatik's environmental protection measures and processes have been recertified under EMAS by IHK Frankfurt am Main, confirming that the company's continuous efforts to improve its environmental performance are yielding results.

As a responsible digitalization partner, Finanz Informatik takes its environmental responsibilities seriously. The company has analysed environmental impacts of its processes, developed goals and measures for resource conservation, and established a continuous improvement process during the EMAS introduction.

With this EMAS certification, Finanz Informatik reinforces its commitment to sustainable business practices. The company offers high-quality IT services while ensuring a minimal impact on the environment. This certification is a testament to Finanz Informatik's dedication to creating a greener and more sustainable future.
