With a new target vision, Bosch is now defining ambitious goals that it plans to achieve by 2025, and is focusing its activities even more on solving the challenges society faces. In the future, Bosch will focus on the following six megatrends: climate, energy, water, urbanisation, globalisation, and health. Each key issue includes two central aspects and medium-term targets.

In 2020, we want to make emissions in our direct sphere of influence (scope 1 and 2) climate-neutral worldwide. By 2030, we then want to achieve a further improvement in terms of climate protection on the basis of the quality of the measures applied. Learn more Sustainability Highlights from the UK One site saves 71 million litres of water At the Thermotechnology location in Worcester, a new water-recycling system is helping ensure efficiency and resource conservation in manufacturing. Every year, the location needs around 110 million litres of water in research and development, in its long-term testing facilities, and in production. The new recycling system makes it possible to reuse cooling water from the production facilities. The system saves twelve metric tons of CO2 and around 71 million litres of water annually – which corresponds approximately to the water consumption of 650 households. Worcester Bosch teams up with the Good Soil Trust The Good Soil Trust aims to provide a safe, family environment for people who are struggling in life. Worcester Bosch now donate wooden pallets and crates to the Trust, that were used for shipping products to the factory. The wood is then repurposed for compost bins, raised vegetable beds, and even a boat building project!
