Siemens Home Appliances and Sustainability

What Siemens sustainability means for you.

Living in harmony with nature doesn’t mean you have to compromise on comfort or convenience. From production, to usage and re-usage — we are working hard to minimize the environmental impact of our products, through sustainable solutions and long-lasting design.

Taking responsibility for environmental impact for a long time.

Siemens has operated in the home appliance market since the beginning of the 20th century, beginning with the first vacuum cleaner in 1906. Since then, it has always been our highest aim to make your life at home more pleasant with genuine and useful innovations. With those, the environmental impact could have been reduced steadily. For example amongst many others, with the aqua sensors in washing machines and dishwashers, which have significantly reduced power and water consumption.

Striving for sustainable progress.

Siemens Home Appliances is fully committed to helping combat climate change by manufacturing long-lasting, energy-efficient appliances in a sustainable way.

From design to development and manufacturing, everything we do is designed to minimise our environmental impact. Our factories, offices, warehouses, and R&D centers run increasingly on green energy, which is self-produced by our photovoltaic systems or sourced from sustainable energy suppliers.

When power meets intelligence for highest efficiency.

Home appliances by Siemens are developed to use natural resources as economically as possible. Thanks to our engineering excellence, we have developed a combination of intelligent software and a network of sensors to automatically detect, evaluate and regulate key factors related to operation of your home appliance – iSensoric. It manages each appliance precisely to use resources such as power and water as efficiently as possible.

Smart and sustainable possibilities with Home Connect.

With Home Connect, you can control your Wi-Fi enabled Siemens home appliances conveniently via app. Switch an appliance into energy-saving mode from anywhere in the world. Use smart assistants like the smartStorage Guide to keep your food in the fridge fresh for longer and to get inspiring recipes based on existing ingredients, so that no food is wasted.

As an owner of a photovoltaic system on the roof, you can use the Flex Start function of Home Connect and its partner SMA. The washing machine, dryer, or dishwasher can be started automatically as soon as self-generated photovoltaic power is available.

Designing home appliances to last.

Ever since, the design of Siemens Home Appliances has developed along with long-term trends and sustainable innovations. The design itself is timeless, yet modern and crafted with conscious focus on long-lasting elegance and quality. This long-lasting appeal is down to the refined combination of handpicked materials and a clear design language. Hundreds of quality tests ensure highest standards in production before they are ready to stand out in your home. With design that goes beyond the obvious.

Maximum responsibility during the whole product life cycle.

In order to avoid waste and save resources, Siemens Home Appliances as part of the BSH Home Appliances Group, is committed to reuse and circulate products, parts and materials as long as possible. Modern recycling technologies ensure that valuable resources can be recovered from old appliances. In urban mining projects, we develop closed material cycles for the recovery of valuable secondary raw materials. The use of recycled plastics and bio-materials is also being tested to develop biodegradable materials for example the packaging of our appliances.
