As a company with roots in the region, it is important to us not only to be there for our customers, but also to take on responsibility in the communities where our employees live.<\/p>\n

That is why we are pleased to be able to support the central playground in the Kleingartach neighborhood of Eppingen with a new climbing structure.<\/p>\n

The idea came from our managing director, Roland Quade. He lives with his family in Kleingartach and noticed that the playground lacked climbing equipment for middle-aged children. This observation led to an initiative and, ultimately, a donation. <\/p>\n

After consulting with the local council, the appropriate playground equipment was selected and professionally installed by the municipal maintenance department. A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone involved who made this project possible. <\/p>\n

\"Sponsored<\/p>\n

We hope all the children have many wonderful hours playing on the new climbing structure, and we\u2019re happy to be able to make a small contribution to our region.<\/p>\n

This commitment is nothing new for us. We have supported regional projects in the past as well, including those focused on animal welfare. You can learn more about this in our article: Regional Animal Welfare: Why Social Engagement Is Important to Us.<\/a><\/span> <\/p>\n

After all, for us, responsibility doesn’t end at the workplace. It extends just as much to the places where our company and our employees call home. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
