Sustainable innovations
Change begins with attitude.

What will remain after us if we don't start rethinking? Change doesn't happen by itself. It happens with us. And it has to happen.

That is why we at DR.SCHNELL are working hard to continuously reduce the CO₂ footprint of our products. We are driving innovation and proactively focusing on alternative ingredients and regional partnerships.

Help us protect the environment. So that future generations can also enjoy a planet worth living on.

CO₂ reduction can also be simple

Our unique DR.SCHNELL CO₂ calculator enables us to calculate all product emissions in accordance with ISO 14067 Scope 1-3. For you, this means that we support you in achieving your personal emission targets through product range optimization, expert product selection, and complete documentation of your savings compared to the previous year.

PURUS Innovation Award
The Purus Innovation Award (PIA) is a prestigious industry award presented during the CMS trade fair in Berlin. Our innovative medical cleaner MILIZID ONE won the PIA in the cleaning agents category in 2025. This is the second time in a row that DR.SCHNELL has won this coveted award.
EcoVadis
EcoVadis enables industry-specific comparisons of a company's sustainability. Since 2018, the certificate has attested to our excellent performance in the areas of environment, ethics, labor law, and procurement.
EU Ecolabel
The EU Ecolabel is an environmental label awarded to products and services that meet high environmental standards throughout their entire life cycle. In addition to strict scientific criteria for rapid biodegradability, high packaging efficiency, and limited environmental toxicity, a performance test is also decisive. Our goal is to award the EU Ecolabel to every new product that falls into one of the categories offered.
EMAS/ISO 14001
We have been EMAS-certified since 1998 and review all environmentally relevant parameters in the company every year to identify opportunities for improvement. We publish the results annually in our environmental statement. EMAS certification is similar to ISO14001, which we also comply with, but goes much further and is one of the most demanding environmental management systems in Europe. It shows that we systematically record our environmental impact and continuously improve it.

The Charter for Sustainable Cleaning seal identifies detergents and cleaning agents that are manufactured in a more environmentally friendly manner according to defined sustainability criteria. It is awarded by A.I.S.E., the European industry association for soap, detergent, cleaning, and maintenance product manufacturers. We have been a member of the initiative since 2007 and were first assessed in 2008.
ISO 9001
ISO 9001 is the world's most important standard for quality management systems. By complying with this standard, we can demonstrate that we systematically control our processes, reliably meet customer requirements, and have clear responsibilities for all issues within the company.
