Sustainability at ZEISS

From planting seedlings and trees to extensive clean-up activities - ZEISS employees worldwide actively engaged in environmental protection within Earth Day in 2023.  

ZEISS supports Science Slam, in which young researchers have ten minutes to share their scientific projects with the audience in an entertaining and vivid way. In this way, ZEISS wants to keep generating enthusiasm for nature and technology in society.

ZEISS is supporting the Justus-von Liebig School in Aalen (JvL) with fourteen ZEISS Primostar 3 microscopes and three ZEISS Stemi 305 microscopes. The supply also includes integrated HD streaming cameras which are now enabling modern teaching that is both practical and well networked.

ZEISS is sponsoring the Werkgymnasium Heidenheim with 16 ZEISS Stemi 305 microscopes and 16 Primostar plus accessories. The scope of delivery also includes integrated HD streaming cameras for the two teaching devices, which now enable hands-on and simultaneously networked modern biology teaching. The town of Heidenheim also subsidized the project.

ZEISS brings medical care to rural areas on the Impact India Foundation LifeLine Express in the form of eye tests and eyeglass lens provision.

The new high-tech site in Jena is to be integrated effectively in the public transport network. In Oberkochen, employees arrive at the site by company bus – electric and emission-free.

Electric vehicle charging while at work: ZEISS employees have also made this possible. Up to 50% of the parking spaces in Jena are to be equipped with charging stations. There is also sharing for e-scooters.
