Environment and Social Commitment

The commitment of TIS GmbH

Environmental issues as well as social issues are very important to TIS GmbH.
Therefore, the company has been involved in various projects for years
and tries to expand its commitment each year.

We support the following social projects

TIS GmbH Charity | Kalangala e.V.

Kalangala e.V.

The organization was founded in 2004 in Bocholt and helps children to develop an independent living perspective through education.

For more than a decade now we from TIS are committed to the organization. For example, we do not buy Christmas presents for our customers and use the money instead each year to make a donation to the organization. We communicate that in our Christmas cards to our customers.

At all our events, anniversaries and festivals, we also hold a great donation box for Kalangala e.V. ready.
All guests are requested in advance to waive gifts and flower greetings to TIS and instead donate directly for Kalangala e.V. or throw cash in our donation box.
At the annual Christmas party TIS employees also like to take the opportunity to buy raffle tickets to win small gifts. The redeemed money is generously rounded up and donated by TIS.
The project is accompanied by the owner's family of TIS, family Bielefeld.

TIS GmbH Charity | Büngern Technik

Förderverein Büngern-Technik Rhede

The nonprofit organization was founded in April 2009, at the initiative of a parent and relative advisory board. The Association is volunteer led and works with a minimum of administrative burden.
The association's goal is to assist in times of scarce public funding and to support the workshop in the realization of projects that are not financed by public funds. The organization thus helps to ensure the good quality offers of the workshop for individual support of people with disabilities.

The project is being supported by TIS since 2015.

Ökoprofit

Ökoprofit Urkunde für die TIS GmbHUPS CO2 neutraler Versand | TIS GmbHIn 2023 we participated in the project "Ökoprofit". We went to regular meetings with other companies of the region and talked about actions for environmental protection that can be taken by companies.
As a conclusion, we implemented different actions which are good for the environment and the sustainability. In the end, we received the Ökoprofit award.

As we did not want to lose the exchange with other regional companies, we joined the Ökoprofit Club which meets twice a year.

Green Telematics

The topic of "Green Telematics" is also important to us. We are therefore very pleased that our logistics software TISLOG can make a contribution to the environment, too. It is able to analyze the driving style of truck drivers and suggest improvements. As a result, both the wearing of truck parts and the consumption of fuel can be reduced.

Furthermore, with our products it is possible to check the CO2 values ​​of trucks, from which possible optimizations can be derived.
The values ​​can also be used by our customers to make compensation payments to various environmental projects.
