Commitment to sustainability

Sustainability is very important at Estrel Berlin and an integral part of the corporate philosophy. Given the grand scale of the Estrel's operation, an ecologically responsible use of resources is essential. During the planning and construction of the Estrel, the energy supply was designed with these aspects in mind. We understand sustainability to mean more than compliance with environmental guidelines. Rather, it is pursued holistically, encompasing all aspects of the operation.
