Consistent values.
It is a considerable achievement when a company becomes more
than 170 years old in times of radical change and transformation,
and it is only possible with entrepreneurial conscientiousness,
responsibility and committed employees. The fact that the Donau
Chemie Group is a family enterprise makes carrying out this
responsibility much more easy. “The clear ownership conditions
permit long term thinking with flexibility and quick decision
making at the same time“, as Donau Chemie owner Alain de
Krassny puts it. Our value system cannot suddenly be removed
by an anonymous decision by a group centre far away. Our
vision is right at the heart of the company and has existed and
was pioneered for many years. We maintain contact with our
employees and suppliers as partners. We have an absolutely
solid financial structure and pay great attention to quality and
security in our daily actions, all of which makes us predictable
and reliable. The Donau Chemie Group stands for consistent
values even if markets and basic conditions dramatically change
once again. More than ever, we meet the new challenges with
the strength of innovation and flexibility. Our mission is clear:
we use chemical base substances and develop and produce
innovative products and services out of them for the benefit of
business partners, employees and the environment. As we do
this, we work intensively with our customers and partners. Never
before was partnership as important as it is now. Excellent quality and optimisation of processes that ensure advantages on the
market for our customers in times of change can only be created
together. Our high investments in research and development
and in the modernisation of plants secure our ability to compete
and, at the same time, ensure that we can develop better, more
environment friendly products using raw materials that protect
resources. Our safety precautions are a role model throughout
Europe, our goods are absolutely pure and precise in the desired
quality. We are there, when we are needed and even deliver
when others find themselves in bottlenecks. And, to serve our
customers, we look out for ecological requirements and want to
create as much ecological benefit as possible with the use of our
products! A warm welcome to the world of the Donau Chemie
Group, a world in which chemistry is used responsibly for the
success of our customers and to protect human beings and the
environment.

Dipl.-Ing. Alain F. de Krassny,
Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Donau Chemie AG
As a human being and entrepreneur, I would like to formulate
a thought that is of considerable significance to me: Life, as it
matures, is like a spiral pointing upwards, whose curves are always a result of the connection between learning, recognising,
understanding and implementing. The process thus remains of
the same type. The value scale, however, changes.

We assume responsibility.
As a chemical company, we have a specific responsibility towards our customers, employees and the environment.
Our ecological responsibility
08
Safety, environment and quality
Safety, environment and quality are the three foundations of
our company. We comply with these premises by following the
principle of responsible acting.
In our facilities all over the world a consistent and general
safety system ensures the necessary protection of humans and
environment.
Our quality connotation does not only cover products, but actions
focused upon quality in all fields. Be it the respectful interpersonal dealings of our employees, the devices for safety and
environmental protection or the information-culture in our entire
company.
Protection of resources through sustainable production
processes
We produce cycles of materials using recognised recycling
processes for hazardous and non-hazardous waste. We thus
combine ecological and economic advantages for the benefit of
the environment and our customers.
If rivers remain clean and dry regions obtain drinking water,
chemistry has been used meaningfully. We always look for the
meaningful correlation between expenditure and use in all our
products. We are active in soil revitalisation and reclamation of
contaminated sites.
Environment friendly products
We produce pure, inorganic product lines, such as iron and
aluminium saline solutions, for example, for sewage and drinking
water treatment. When producing activated carbon we use
renewable raw materials such as coconut shells. This makes our
production eco-friendly, sustainable and we do our part to save
energy (“Green Production Technology”).
In the area of brands, we produce high value natural cosmetics on the basis of pure plant substances. We have developed
an extremely powerful and environment friendly household
cleaner, “Eco Forte,“ the first household cleaner to receive the
environment symbol in Austria and which also carries the ECO
label. The focus of our research department is to continuously
improve products to make them more environment friendly.
Energy efficiency
Accumulated thermal energy is converted into electricity and
hot water in our plant in Pischelsdorf. We work completely
CO2 neutral in the process. In our Brückl plant we operate a
water power plant and innovative plants for thermal recycling
of exhaust gases (recovery of the excess hydrogen). Contrary
to comparable plants for hydrochloric acid synthesis, the reaction
warmth is used with the help of a steam boiler integrated into
the plant to create steam. This highly modern use of heat
reduces the CO2 exhaust on site by 8,000 tons per year, which
is the equivalent of a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions
relevant to the climate of more than 30 per cent on site. The
savings in use of heating oil as a result of this thus drastically
reduce the sulphur dioxide emissions. At the Landeck plant,
AB O UT T HE D O N AU C HEM IE G R O UP
the production of calcium carbide which uses a lot of electricity
is supplied by our own water works with environment friendly
energy, through which we save approx. 80,000t CO2 per year.
The construction of a housing unit for unloading coal considerably reduces the dust emissions and contributes significantly
to relief amongst the people living in the area. We could
reduce the use of natural gas by more than 50,000 m3 per year
and CO2 emissions by 120t through extensive investments in
improving our plants for activated carbon coal reactivation.
Responsible Care
We participate in Responsible Care, a global initiative of the
chemical industry ensuring the health and safety of employees,
neighbours and customers as well as an environment worth
living in. We are not just a member, but also one of the first
tested and certified companies in Austria. We are certified in
accordance with ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 13485, GMP,
HACCP as well as the ECO label and the Austrian Environment Symbol.
Moving transportation away from the road
Transporting is done by rail whenever possible. All our sites
are connected by rail. Heavy vehicle traffic in Pischelsdorf
was reduced by about 12,000 journeys through common
investments with our partners into a three kilometre long
transportation unit, which has led to considerable environmental relief and an increase in the quality of life for the
neighbouring population.
Waste disposal
Ecological responsibility is evident when we think about the
consequences of our actions. We therefore not only develop
and sell, but also offer programmes for the disposal and
recycling of used chemicals and products. We are glad to
support our customers in the treatment of sewage, exhaust
air and waste flows.

Safety is everything
Our social responsibility
Production means the protection of human beings and the
environment. In this respect, our sites are amongst the leading
areas in Europe. Thanks to high investments in the continuous improvement of safety precautions, safety standards
apply that are far above the average and ahead the legal
requirements. We have access to a company fire brigade and
continuously conduct training sessions for our customers to
ensure the
appropriate handling of chemicals. All our products comply
with the requirements defined by REACH and have been
registered in advance. Our extensive know-how with respect
to the registration ordinance is also passed on to our customers. We are a member of Responsible Care, an ambitious,
global initiative of the chemical industry which serves to do
much more in production, transport and the use of chemical
products than the legal requirements demand. The Austrian
centre of the transport/accident/information and help system
(TUIS) is at our site in Pischelsdorf. We call on our specialists
for help in case of accidents. To avoid any accidents at all, we
continuously pass on our know-how on avoiding accidents
and the treatment of damages following accidents connected
to chemicals, to the police and the fire brigade.
Satisfied employees with a sense of responsibility who
contribute with their service, ideas and commitments every
day, are the pillars of our economic success. Since we expect
responsible behaviour as employers, we first have to bring it
to our employees and be a model to them. The protection of
human beings is the top most priority and negligence, stress
or aiming for profits cannot detract us from this goal. Industry
specific risk potential and possible causes of accidents
through negligence are continuously analysed in detail and
safety standards are adapted. Our accident statistics clearly
point towards “zero accidents.” Talent and potential at all
sites is promoted in a modular training course at the Donau
Chemie Academy. The multiple offers for basic and advanced
training intensify the quality leadership and innovative forces.

Quality – Responsibility towards our
business partners
Our responsibility and our respect towards customers and
suppliers are expressed in the flawless quality of our products
and services. We supply perfectly pure products, following the
exact formula at the desired quantity. We also offer delivery at
weekends as we stay open for longer. We work together with
our business partners on customised, future oriented service
and logistics concepts.
R&D – we provide solutions
We don’t just provide chemical products, we provide solutions.
Apart from our range of standard products, we develop the
exact product together with our customers that makes a
difference in their processes and applications as far as quality
and safety are concerned. We ensure permanently optimised
processes for our customers with perfect documentation and
ability to follow up. We develop customised products in the
areas of activated carbon, chemical compounds for commercial and industrial use, consumer products, water and paper
technology.
Special products for the treatment of drinking water and air
purification in automobiles have been created by modifying activated carbons. These products have already been
successfully used by our customers in practice for a long
time. Through close cooperation with the aluminium industry,
special mould release elements for die casting could be
developed which fulfil the high demands of the automobile
industry. In the area of (highly complex) paper manufacturing,
intensive cooperation with our customers has led to innovative, customised solutions. The fixing agent Donau PAC papyro
nil as a fixing agent for starch and glue has become highly
significant in the industry.
Our own research and development department is also aiming
at developing increasingly ecologically sensitive products
and environment friendly raw materials for our customers.
They have succeeded in the area of consumer products in
particular through the development of ecologically sustainable
products with the Eco label. We continuously work on the
creation of competitive advantages for our customers with
investments in technology and know-how and aim at securing
our common future.
