VACU-form has been awarded the Committed badge by EcoVadis, the world's largest provider of sustainability rankings for companies.
Since its foundation in 2007, EcoVadis has assessed more than 150,000 international companies. The provider's goal is to ‘deliver reliable, globally recognised sustainability assessments and insights that enable all companies to reduce risk, drive improvement and accelerate positive impact on our planet and society.’
EcoVadis assesses companies according to 21 corporate social responsibility criteria, which are divided into four thematic areas: environment, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. (EcoVadis sustainability recognition website)
For us, receiving this badge is the best motivation to continue on our path towards a green and sustainable future.
Sometimes apprenticeship pathways do not go as planned. Due to operational reasons, Samuel Berteit could no longer remain with his previous company, but we were delighted to welcome the nineteen-year-old at our team and are continuing the journey together towards a successful qualification. In the first few weeks, Samuel has already had a chance to get an insight into our various production areas and is currently working on one of our inliner machines. No doubt he will also have the opportunity to work in his favourite area, the extrusion machines. Dear Samuel, we say a warm welcome to the VACU-form team and are pleased to have you with us!

It is with great gratitude that we bid farewell to our Technical Director Stefan Ossendorf, who is retiring from active working life. For more than three decades, he has shaped WISCHEMANN, built up our production and played a decisive role in the further development of our technical processes. His farewell was therefore different than usual: in the shipping hall, his family, professional colleagues, the management and, of course, the WISCHEMANN team surprised him with loud applause, personal words and gifts.
At the same time, we are delighted that Franz Josef Lahrkamp is taking over as Technical Managing Director. With more than ten years of experience in the company, his expertise and understanding of our processes make him the ideal successor to continue WISCHEMANN's technical future in a secure and forward-looking manner.
We say ‘DANKE OSSI!’ and look forward to the new chapter!
