Since 1951, the long-established company TROX has focused on innovation, durability and efficiency - combined with socially responsible action.

* Scope 1, 2, 3 upstream (click button for explanation)
Scopes define the areas in which companies emit CO2. According to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol), there are three standardised categories along the value chain:
Scope 1 comprises direct emissions within the company. Scope 2 records the indirect emissions from energy suppliers and Scope 3 describes the emissions from the upstream supply chain.
TROX is a global market leader in the development, manufacture and sale of components, units and systems for the safe ventilation and air conditioning of rooms, including fire protection and smoke extraction technology. TROX products are produced in an environmentally friendly manner, are energy-efficient and ensure demand-based operation.
With 33 subsidiaries in 28 countries on five continents, 20 production sites and further importers and representatives, the company is present in over 70 countries. The TROX GROUP currently has around 4,770 employees worldwide and an annual turnover of around 670 million Euros.
The foundation is an expression of the life's work of its founder, Heinz Trox. By establishing the foundation in 1991, he ensured the continued existence of TROX GmbH as an independent company. The object of the foundation is the advancement of scientific projects in the field of ventilation and air-conditioning technology and the support of social and cultural activities.
The Heinz Trox Foundation holds 94% of the shares in TROX GmbH which is based in Neukirchen-Vluyn on the left bank of the Lower Rhine. The foundation's holdings in the TROX GROUP are its primary asset; its dividend distribution forms the economic basis for its sponsorship activities.

Climate neutrality and sustainability have long been firmly anchored as corporate goals at TROX. Since 2019, TROX has produced an annual sustainability report with comprehensive information on the successes achieved as well as measures already initiated and planned for the future. A special climate formula was developed to illustrate TROX's commitment.
"TROX is a highly meaningful company that acts sustainably in two respects – for health and for the environment. This follows our tradition, which has always focused on quality, durability, efficiency, innovation and socially responsible action," explains Christine Roßkothen, Head of Corporate Social Responsibility.

The tree species, which originates from Asia, is also known as the kiri or bluebell tree. It grows rapidly, binds a particularly large amount of carbon dioxide and offers other benefits, such as use as a building material or food source.
