Usage over ownership – for more than 45 years
The concept of ‘usage over ownership’ has been at the heart of CHG-MERIDIAN’s business model for more than 45 years. Thanks to our circular business model, we are making a significant contribution to resource efficiency and sustainability. We do not see sustainability as a one-off target, but rather as an ongoing process that covers all aspects of doing business sustainably, from commercial considerations to environmental and social matters.
We do not consider sustainability in isolation; it is an overarching topic that is integrated into all of our relevant strategies. Departments, countries, and employees translate the strategy into specific action and thus ensure that sustainability is actively implemented in a targeted manner across the CHG-MERIDIAN Group.
“Sustainable IT usage is not a trend; it is an important step toward a better future.”
Dr. Mathias Wagner, CEO of the CHG-MERIDIAN Group
