The power of sustainable action

Vacumetal is a Lean-management driven organization. We strive in implicating our people in the changes and the improvements in order to achieve a better and more efficient company. Our meeting policy is based on the sociocratic circle method.
With the use of personal development and e-learning programs we believe in the principle of learning by doing which improves our productivity and effectivity. We dedicate a lot of time in regularly training our people, not only in developing their skills but also to make them aware of the importance of our Safety and Health procedures. These are maintained on a daily basis.

Vacumetal has a “Best Available Technology” policy. Supplying our products to high-end customers in the market, means that we have to keep up very high standards in every aspect of the process. This applies to machines, software, raw materials and skills. This is however not enough. We need to test, develop, innovate in new techniques and technologies on daily basis. We believe in partnerships and we do not hesitate to turn to our (local) suppliers and clients to seek advice.

Since 2007, we work with 100% solvent free dry lacquers. By using these environmental friendly lacquers, we contribute, not only to a cleaner world, but we meet also a growing demand from our clients to conduct a responsible environmental policy. Recycling of metallized products/rejects, consumables and filter materials always has our highest attention.

At Vacumetal we are constantly finding ways to enhance our efficiency and performance on energy consumption. We have 1800 solar panels and since 2022 we only use green electricity.

We have a modern, cost-efficient heat recovery system to reduce energy consumption and provide a better indoor air quality and environment for our people.

A very important environmental measure was the reduction of the VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds). We have invested a lot in state-of-the-art filtration technology for the treatment of fine dust and solvents, eliminating fine dust and VOCs with an efficiency of more than 95%.
