ARCHIVED Environmentally Friendly Workplace

An Eco-Friendly Place to Work

We strive to ensure that our facilities and offices are energy efficient, with strong recycling and waste management practices in place, and we also prioritize minimizing the impact of our sites on local biodiversity. Recent examples of initiatives include:

Munich, Germany

A professional beekeeper manages four colonies on the roof of the Munich production site, home to 160,000 bees. The team helps maintain the rooftop, which is well suited for bees due to being surrounded by trees and marshy meadows. During 2020, the colonies produced approximately 180kg of rooftop honey. This honey is available for teams to buy and was also offered as Dentsply Sirona Christmas gifts to Key Opinion Leaders and employees, engaging them in our bee protection program.

Ballaigues, Switzerland

To commemorate 130 years since its inauguration and promote ecological diversity, the Ballaigues team designed and built an insect hotel in the shape of Dentsply Sirona’s symbol. To create the formation, they used only non-living products and untreated plant materials – predominantly wood – that had been recycled or designed to complement local biodiversity. The structure enables insects and arachnids to survive through the winter and more safely lay eggs in the summer.
