The foundation for a long-term business success
As a medium-sized family business in its fifth generation, we at Scheidt & Bachmann are traditionally committed to sustainable action. We think in generations, not in quarters. This results in a far-reaching responsibility for us towards our customers as well as towards our employees and society. Fair and responsible dealings with our partners, employees and the environment are thus part of our self-image. The future-oriented actions of management and employees are of central importance to us.
Not only are our products developed and produced from the point of view of sustainability, you yourself also make a contribution to increasing sustainability in your direct environment. Our parking guidance systems reduce the number of cars looking for a space and therefore significantly reduce fuel consumption, while our fare collection systems make sure that people can conveniently and easily use public transport. Our signalling systems and the signal box technology are basic prerequisites for energy efficient rail transport.
Our Vision
Future generations can travel a livable planet using integrated and accessible mobility.
Our Mission
We build the foundation for attractive mobility, that moves people.
Our actions are driven by innovation, reliability and sustainability.
We think in generations not quarters and take long-term responsibility for our partners, our employees and our environment.
We are committed to sustainable action
Scheidt & Bachmann as a family-run group of companies contributes to the development of sustainable and safe mobility with innovative products. Our products and services should not only ensure growth and sustainable value creation, but also have a long-term positive impact on the environment and society. We think in terms of generations. This gives rise to a far-reaching responsibility for us: both towards our customers and towards our employees and society, we want to actively shape the change towards a social, sustainable value-adding economic system together.
Sustainability management
In the interest of the Scheidt & Bachmann group of companies and in view of our sense of responsibility for social, economic and ecological sustainability (Corporate Social Responsibility – CSR), we therefore establish a comprehensive sustainability management.
We see our corporate focus in the development of innovative products that promote global mobility through distinctive safety, reliability and durability. To this end, our Signalling Systems, Parking Solutions, Fare Collection Systems and Fuel Retail Solutions business units continuously promote the development of new solutions in their respective industries.
Sustainable Development Goals
As a group of companies, we are committed to continuously improving our sustainability performance. The 17 international Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide global guidance for change towards a better world. We want to be guided by these and reliably contribute to achieving these goals by 2030. We also promote sustainable action by all employees through training, information and the individual role model function of our managers.
Award-winning sustainability
In order to continuously improve, we have our environmental, social and governance sustainability performance assessed by EcoVadis. EcoVadis is the world's leading provider of sustainability ratings. In the 2023 assessment of Scheidt & Bachmann GmbH site Mönchengladbach, we were awarded the silver medal and thus belong to the top 25 % of companies assessed by EcoVadis worldwide. The extension of the scope to other parts of the group of companies will follow.
