Sustainability

Harol’s production facilities run on 100% green energy thanks to its own wind turbine. This source of renewable energy enables us to save as much as 3,600 tons of CO₂ emissions every year.

Water is an essential energy source that we use carefully and efficiently. Our production facilities are equipped with recycled water systems, resulting in significantly less water consumption and a reduced environmental impact.

We recycle no less than 99% of our waste. This is the result of close cooperation with a network of dedicated distributors and suppliers.

Natural cooling is inherent in all Harol’s solutions. We designed the Harol Coolscreen with the principle of eco-design in mind. By using a minimum number of parts and a screwless design, we limit the demand for raw materials and supplies, while avoiding glue in the assembly process increases the environmental friendliness of the screens. These sustainable efforts have earned Harol Coolscreen the Archiproducts Sustainability Award. An additional positive aspect of sustainability is that all our roller shutters, screens and veranda sun blinds are also available on solar energy, which contributes to an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly solution.

Our entire Harol fleet consists of 100% hybrid and electric vehicles, with which we embrace a sustainable approach to mobility. In addition, all our vehicles are charged on-site using our own green wind energy.

Our employees who prefer the fresh air benefit from the option of leasing (electric) bicycles through Harol. This scheme not only supports sustainable commuting, but also provides significant health benefits through regular exercise and reducing daily stress.

Harol has a beautiful front garden with various plants at the entrance of the building. This green environment not only contributes to an aesthetically attractive entrance, but also promotes air quality and the general well-being of our employees. We have also created a green terrace with a dining area, where our employees can enjoy a relaxing lunch or a refreshing break in the open air.

Our offices are almost energy neutral (BEN), which means that we use minimal energy for heating, ventilation, cooling and hot water. We obtain the energy required for our activities from our own wind turbine and green electricity supply. In addition, the building elements and our furniture consist of recycled materials. As a sustainable alternative to bottled water, we provide everyone with purified tap water.

If we take a closer look at our products, we notice that they are finished with a sustainable powder coating in our own environmentally friendly powder coating paint shop. Our paint shop uses recycled water to minimise the environmental impact of the essential treatment. With this, we are taking further steps towards sustainability and environmental awareness.
