Quality and Environmental

TOPTICA's quality management system was first certified in 2006 according to ISO 9001. Additionally, TOPTICA’s
environmental management system was first certified in December 2020. Both were merged into an integrated management system.
These international standards are used in numerous industries to install the continuous process of improvement 
and therefore improvement of product and service quality.

Sustainability

It is TOPTICA's philosophy, to observe in all our activities our obligation to protect the environment, including the prevention of environmental pollution and other obligations relevant to the context of our business. Influenceable environmental aspects of our activities, products and services and their effects are recorded by us in a registry of environmental aspects and possible risks and opportunities are assessed. All relevant activities, products and services including the life cycle are considered. Thus, we ensure that environmental aspects are monitored and systematically reduced and that conditions for continuous improvement of environmental performance are met.

Occupational safety

The safety and health of our employees, customers, and partners are our highest priority. In the area of ​​occupational safety, we comply with all strict German regulations, based on ISO 45001. We are supported in this by an external occupational safety specialist and a company physician and maintain close contact with the German Social Accident Insurance Institution for the Energy, Textile, Electrical and Media Industries (BG ETEM).
