KÜBLER plants 1,000 trees for climate protection

The idea was born within the team: doing good together at the Christmas party. As sustainability is a top priority at KÜBLER anyway, the goal was quickly clear: planting trees for climate protection. A raffle was organized for this purpose, into which every employee had paid, twice over. Firstly, many of the raffle winnings were donated. Secondly, raffle tickets were purchased. The campaign was so well received that all the raffle tickets were sold within a very short time.
"I really enjoyed the raffle. Donations are always a great thing, but such a successful campaign makes it even easier to get active," says Sina Koppenhöfer, media clerk trainee at KÜBLER GmbH.
Another kicker was that the company had promised to double the amount and thus the number of trees. 1,000 trees are now being planted on behalf of KÜBLER and its employees. The organization Plant for the Planet, which benefited from the donation, organizes tree planting projects all over the world.
"It is important to us to set a good example in the area of climate protection," says Thomas Kübler, founder and Managing Director of KÜBLER GmbH. The topic has been on the agenda for the Ludwigshafen-based hall heating specialist not just since Greta Thunberg. In fact, KÜBLER's infrared systems have been making a major contribution to environmental protection for over 30 years. The energy-efficient dark radiators save up to 70 % CO2 and energy. The company regularly receives awards for this - including the German Sustainability Award. "We want to prove that climate protection doesn't have to be hard and arduous, it can actually be fun."

- Ludwigshafen, 19.06.2020 | The Building Energy Act, or GEG for short, has long been eagerly awaited. The uniform, coordinated set of regulations for the energy requirements for new buildings, existing buildings and the use of renewable energies to supply heating and cooling to buildings is intended to bring together various laws on building energy efficiency and heat use. And thus significantly simplify the previously highly complex and difficult to understand landscape of energy-saving legislation for building owners and planners. Drafts of the law have been available since 2017. After endless postponements over legislative periods, the GEG was passed yesterday in the Bundestag.
