Sustainability

Definition of sustainability
Sustainability or sustainable development means satisfying the needs of the present in such a way that the opportunities of future generations are not restricted. It is important to consider the three dimensions of sustainability – economically efficient, socially just and ecologically viable – on an equal footing. In order to preserve global resources in the long term, sustainability should be the basis of all political decisions.

Aspects of sustainability
ESG rating
We were the first passenger shipping company in the “inland waterway transport” category to undergo an ESG rating. This evaluates companies according to sustainability criteria in the areas of environment, social affairs and corporate governance and shows how responsibly and sustainably companies act.
We are very proud to have scored better than 71% of all 130,000 companies assessed with a bronze badge – a strong sign that sustainability is not just a word for us.
