Commitment in our environment
As a family business, the common good is particularly important to us. We promote education and sport and support people in need. Together with our team, we are also committed beyond the company.
25 years of smart-TEC commitment and responsibility
To mark our 25th anniversary, we are strengthening our commitment to sustainable and social projects that help to support people, nature and the climate. All of our initiatives are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The young savages
With the support of smart-TEC, 25 square meters of very old deciduous forest with around 120-year-old oaks and beeches worthy of protection can be safely protected for the next 50 years. In doing so, we are making an important contribution to the protection of native ecosystems and the climate.
The chickens are loose...
With the support of smart-TEC, 25 pairs of chickens, including vaccinations, can be financed for families in Africa. The eggs laid provide important nutrients and the sale of eggs and young animals provides families with an additional income.
Vaccination saves lives
With the 25 vaccine doses from smart-TEC, hundreds of children in Africa can be vaccinated against measles. We are thus helping to reduce the spread of this dangerous and contagious disease and save the lives of many children.
High-quality education
smart-TEC is supporting the World Vision organization with a donation of 10 x 25 euros. This amount will be used to purchase exercise books, pencils, erasers, school books, school bags and school clothes to give the girls and boys hope and prospects!

Sustainable voluntary team projects
To celebrate RATHGEBER's 75th anniversary in 2023, we gave ourselves the best gift of all: our departments independently organized ecological and social projects - from idea to implementation
For example, we spent afternoons together in a retirement home, restored ponds and planted flowering meadows on our company premises.
Promotion
Education is a matter close to our hearts. As part of our sustainability goals, we support SDG 4 (Quality Education). To achieve this goal, we are involved in the areas of sport, music and sustainability education.
