What does Lessmann mean by sustainability?

We understand ecological responsibility to mean operational environmental protection and a contribution to climate protection. The aim was therefore to have the company certified according to ISO 14001:2015 (environmental management) in order to clearly define and pursue reduction targets for emissions and raw material consumption, among other things. Lessmann has been certified according to this standard since May 2022 and thus records consumption in order to make future reduction targets measurable. We have also recently become part of the “Environment + Climate Pact Bavaria”. By participating, we are committed to taking environmental protection measures that go far beyond the legal requirements. We have been using several photovoltaic systems to generate electricity on all roof areas of our company since 2003. Through constant expansion, we now achieve a total output of 588 kWp. With an annual consumption of around 1,200 kWh, we generate almost 50% of our electricity ourselves. We are even better when it comes to heating: it is fueled 100% by leftovers from the production of our wooden handles.

What are encapsulated brushes?

In the encapsulated brushes, the steel wire trim is embedded in a tough plastic mass. This means that the trim widths always remain the same during processing and premature breakage of individual wires is avoided. Lessmann’s plastic-bonded brushes are available in three different shore hardnesses: black – hard, red – standard and white – soft. The more aggressive the application, the harder the plastic material should be. Another advantage of the harder plastic material is the dimensional stability.
