Sustainably produced kitchens for a better world
Häcker Kitchens produces carbon-neutrally and was awarded by the DGM as a carbon-neutral company. To this end, the kitchen furniture manufacturer from Rödinghausen had its own emissions recorded, has offset the positive savings already made within the company and compensated the remaining delta by acquiring climate protection certificates.
With these certificates, Häcker supports reforestation projects, wind power projects as well as hydro-power projects. With its own labels, PURemission and PUResist, Häcker is leading in the field of healthy kitchen furniture.

We at Häcker Küchen are responsible for sustainably managing what already exists and at the same time creating the basis for future growth. ‘Made in Germany' is one of Häcker Küchen's main strategies and will continue to secure jobs here in Germany for the future."

Häcker’s raised bed - fragrant herbs with Mediterranean flair
In the training workshop, the apprentices have built a beautiful herb bed so that guests and employees of Häcker can enjoy fresh and healthy herbs. This now adorns the natural oasis in front of the Häcker lounge. Whether lavender, basil or thyme - herbs that grow here make every dish a special treat.
Environmentally friendly material for cargo stabilisation
Usually, foam blocks and polystyrene sheets are used during transport to secure high-value cargo.
Häcker has a better way. The company's trailers are equipped with sturdy paper bags filled with cardboard waste to secure the load.
This eco-friendly idea was developed by employees of the Häcker logistics department. Häcker promotes sustainable solutions.
Educational project in Africa
Häcker promotes and supports the Youth Development Project (YDP) in Sierra Leone, Africa, where 200 children receive an excellent education. The level of knowledge of these dedicated pupils in grade 2 largely exceeds that of grade 6 pupils in local public schools. More than 5,200 kilometres separate Germany from Sierra Leone in Africa. In terms of their standard of living, however, the countries are worlds apart.
Social water Viva Con Agua
Häcker supports Viva con Agua. Water for all, all for water. Häcker offers Viva con Agua in all meeting rooms. In addition, the vending machines of all plants are stocked with this social water.
We promote sport
As part of our commitment to football, we support the region and promote youth work. Our dedication to the region is also reflected in the sponsorship of SV Rödinghausen.
We promote youth residential groups and day-care centres
One of many examples: Girls and boys aged between 9 and 17 years, who cannot live with their former families, found a new home in the Rödinghausen residential group. The youth welfare service takes care of the needs of children and adolescents, especially with regard to educational support.
Häcker supported the sponsor of the institution by donating a modern built-in kitchen. In addition, Häcker provided kitchens for regional day-care centres to ensure that the children receive freshly prepared meals.
