4B focuses on sustainability
The traditional and family company 4B consistently focuses on sustainability and will only produce windows made of wood/metal from 2023. With wood, 4B focuses on a 100 percent climate-neutral raw material. As a result, the factory in Emmen, which specializes in the manufacture of quality windows made of plastic, will be closed. There is a connection solution at the headquarters in Hochdorf for all 27 employees working there.
For many years, 4B has been pursuing a corporate strategy that is based on the needs of the market and on social and ecological sustainability criteria. This makes the company successful and today it is the market leader in window production. The company traditionally focuses on the manufacture of wood/metal windows, which are developed and manufactured exclusively in Hochdorf. With the plant in Emmen and the production of plastic windows, 4B has opened up an additional market in the past. However, the demand for these products has steadily declined in recent years. Against the background of this economic development and in accordance with 4B’s focus on the production of windows with resource-saving and low-emission materials, the closure of the factory in Emmen is a logical consequence. From 2023, the 4B company will dispense with the energy-intensive production of plastic windows. On the other hand, further investments are being made in the Hochdorf production site.
Connection solution for all employees
4B is aware of its responsibility towards its employees. The company therefore offers all 27 employees in Emmen a connection solution at the headquarters in Hochdorf. 4B thus secures the know-how and broad experience of well-qualified specialists. In any case, it is very important to 4B to consistently invest in the training and further education of employees. With its own campus, 4B has developed a platform for promoting employees, which in turn benefits the internal further development of production and products. In this way, 4B secures the ability to be present as the industry leader in the market at all times with convincing and innovative solutions.
