TAKRAF Group publishes its third Sustainability Report
TAKRAF Group has released its third voluntary Sustainability Report, covering the fiscal year 2025 and reinforcing its commitment to transparency, responsible business practices and long-term value creation.
Prepared in alignment with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the report provides comprehensive insights into TAKRAF Group's Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performance, sustainability strategy and future ambitions. By voluntarily reporting several years ahead of the mandatory reporting requirements, TAKRAF Group continues to position itself among the early adopters of sustainability reporting within its industry.
The 2025 reporting year was a special one for TAKRAF Group, as it marked the company's 300th anniversary. This milestone celebrated
three centuries of engineering expertise, innovation and adaptability that have shaped the company's journey from its origins in Lauchhammer, Germany, to a global technology provider serving the mining, bulk material handling and minerals processing industries.
Sustainability and innovation go hand in hand
The report highlights how sustainability has become increasingly integrated into TAKRAF Group's business strategy, governance structures and day-to-day operations. It also reflects the company's continued focus on developing technologies that help clients operate more efficiently while reducing environmental impacts.
Key solutions featured in the report include In-Pit Crushing and Conveying (IPCC) systems, Gearless Conveyor Drives (GCDs), High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGRs) and DELKOR dewatering technologies, all of which contribute to improved resource efficiency, lower energy consumption and reduced emissions throughout the mining value chain.
The report also showcases examples of sustainability progress across TAKRAF Group's global operations, including photovoltaic installations in South Africa, energy-efficient infrastructure upgrades in Germany, employee engagement initiatives and further improvements in governance and compliance processes.
The 2025 Sustainability Report and accompanying Technical Report provide a detailed overview of TAKRAF Group's sustainability journey, key achievements and priorities as the company continues to drive sustainable transformation across the industries it serves.
"For 300 years, TAKRAF Group has turned raw possibility into lasting value. That is still what we do – and today, it matters more than ever."
Thomas Jabs, Group Chief Executive Officer, states in the report.
Reflecting on both the anniversary year and the role of the mining industry in supporting global megatrends such as digitalization, artificial intelligence (AI) and the energy transition, he adds:
"Helping our clients extract critical raw materials more efficiently, more safely and with a lower environmental footprint is not separate from the energy transition. It is part of it."
From renewable energy technologies and battery supply chains to digital infrastructure and advanced manufacturing, many of the resources required for a sustainable future depend on efficient mining and processing solutions. TAKRAF Group aims to support this transformation through innovative technologies, strong governance and responsible business conduct.
Looking ahead
Building on the foundations established with its first Sustainability Report in 2023, TAKRAF Group remains committed to continuously improving ESG data quality, expanding sustainability initiatives and supporting clients through technologies that contribute to a more sustainable future.
This report reflects the commitment, expertise and collaboration of colleagues across TAKRAF Group who contributed throughout the reporting process. Capturing a milestone year in our history, it demonstrates the progress we have made in further integrating sustainability into our business and strengthening transparency across the Group. We thank everyone involved for their valuable contribution and for helping us continue our journey towards responsible and sustainable growth.
For Mining with Meaning.
