The founding idea of WEROCK was to make the production of industrial goods more sustainable. We have set ourselves the goal of making a positive impact on our planet. Our planet’s resources must not be wasted any longer and CO₂ emissions must be reduced. Sustainability and environmental protection are therefore an integral part of WEROCK Technologies GmbH.
WEROCK is a member of Leaders for Climate Action, a signatory of the Entrepreneurs For Future demands and a founding member of the Unternehmensnetzwerk Klimaschutz (Business Network for Climate Protection). All greenhouse gas emissions from WEROCK and the downstream production facilities are generously offset through Gold Standard projects in accordance with the GHG Protocol Scope 1 to 3. Some of our production facilities also already have ISO14000 and ISO14064 certifications.
In addition to the unavoidable emissions that arise during the manufacture of our products themselves, we take various measures to ensure a low carbon footprint: low/no paper policy, Ecosia as the default search engine, promotion of sustainable mobility, green electricity, video conferencing instead of field service, etc.
In the future, we want to continue to actively improve our own processes and use our profits for good causes. Even though WEROCK is not a non-profit organization, we plan to invest 50% of our profits in our own climate protection projects, which we carry out ourselves or with partners. One focus is on sustainable energy generation.
Our products are shipped via climate-neutral UPS shipping. Imports from Asia are transported by sea or train freight wherever possible. In any case, greenhouse gas emissions are fully offset. We only use used cardboard boxes to ship your orders, because in most cases, boxes can withstand multiple shipments and do not have to be disposed of immediately. Even product boxes that have only slight cosmetic defects are reused. Since the company was founded, WEROCK Technologies GmbH has not purchased a single shipping box.
It is currently not possible to manufacture modern electronics in a completely conflict-free or climate-neutral way. The production of electrical products such as industrial computers, laptops or barcode scanners consumes electricity, water and also various chemicals. To manufacture powerful and long-lasting batteries, we also need conflict-prone materials such as lithium and cobalt. With our Code of Ethics, we not only commit ourselves, but also our suppliers, to sustainability and environmental protection. Our suppliers undergo an annual ESG audit, which all core suppliers must undergo. As part of these audits, we regularly review how we can further reduce actual emissions and which environmentally friendly processes, procedures and materials can be used.
We ensure that our products have a long service life right from the development stage. WEROCK products are characterized by high quality and functionality on the one hand. All products are designed for the longest possible use. For mobile devices, the battery is always replaceable by the user. In the event of defects, we still repair ourselves and do not simply replace; a printed manual is only available on request and product packaging is made of 100% paper wherever possible.
As a young company, we don’t have a complete research department that could calculate the emissions of each component in the supply chain and is constantly researching new materials. Nevertheless, we want to do something. For this reason, we offset the emissions that cannot yet be avoided. To do this, we work with Gold Standard certified climate projects. Emissions are calculated on the basis of calculations by recognized institutes and are expanded upon through our own calculations and research.
WEROCK neutralizes 100% of all emissions through Gold Standard projects. When selecting projects, we only support particularly high-quality projects that, provided they are available, take into account at least five of the 17 targets for sustainable development of the UN. However, we strive to support only projects with eight or more of these goals. In addition, WEROCK invests in further projects in line with the company’s principles.
Every quarter, we report on the development of our emissions and how we deal with them. Our emission offsets also take place in this cycle. We report on the specific offset projects that we support to offset our emissions. We also report on our progress and setbacks in reducing and avoiding emissions. Our efforts go beyond the mere compensation of CO₂ emissions: All decisions are made with the aim of permanently improving environmental protection. Once the three-stage process has been completed, regular reviews are carried out to determine how the company’s environmental protection efforts can be further improved. Do you have any ideas on how we can become even more environmentally friendly? We look forward to hearing from you.
The last quarter was marked by many year-end projects, and we would like to thank our customers for their trust. Thanks to the higher inventory levels we built up over the year, we were particularly well-positioned to meet delivery demands. As a result, we had to produce less in Q4/2025,
WEROCK continues to grow – and so do the greenhouse gas emissions generated by production and logistics. In this article, you will find out what emissions were generated in the third quarter of 2025, how we dealt with them and what measures we are taking to reduce them. Join us

WEROCK continues to grow, as do the greenhouse gas emissions generated by our production and logistics operations. This article discusses the emissions produced in the first quarter of 2025, our response to them, and the measures we are taking to reduce them. To live up to our claim of being
WEROCK continues to grow – and with us, the greenhouse gas emissions resulting from production and logistics also increase. In this article, you will learn about the emissions generated in the fourth quarter of 2024, how we have dealt with them and what measures we are taking to reduce them.
One climate story follows another: typhoons in Asia, floods in the Sahara, hurricanes in the United States, and heavy rains in Germany. But other issues dominate the media: wars, elections, economic difficulties. As is so often the case, our planet takes a back seat. Emissions Emissions from the manufacturing and
After the European elections and before the summer holidays, there is a lot to report again. We are repeatedly asked about certifications for the climate neutrality of our products. WEROCK continues to grow, and with it the actual greenhouse gas emissions generated by production and logistics. The exact calculation of

Sometimes I wonder if our quarterly reports are becoming increasingly gloomy. In the final declaration of the COP27 UN climate summit in Sharm El-Sheikh, the international community reaffirmed the goal of limiting global warming “as far as possible” to 1.5 degrees Celsius compared with the pre-industrial era. Whether or not
At WEROCK, one basic principle applies: The customer must receive a perfect product. Partial defects, damaged or even dead-on-arrival products are not acceptable to us. It is not enough to set requirements for product quality in advance of the factory. All items are inspected with great care upon receipt for
Marked by all kinds of uncertainties in the industry, the third quarter has come to an end and raised many questions also in the field of environment, nature and climate protection. Many manufacturing companies that rely on gas supplies are groaning under the high costs. And prices know only one
Packaging has become one of the biggest burdens on our planet – this is obvious and should be well known. What is always more important here is to act appropriately: We have to do many things to counteract as efficiently as possible. Closing material cycles, saving packaging and designing it
