ESG STRATEGY
The Wikov Group defines its ESG strategy as a key part of its long-term direction and competitiveness.
The strategy reflects current challenges in sustainability, regulatory requirements (especially CSRD and ESRS), technological innovations, and societal expectations. The goal is to enhance market position through investments in research, development, and digitalization.
Environment
The path to sustainable engineering
Energy efficiency and biodiversity
Increasing energy efficiency and the share of renewable energy sources are among our key strategic priorities. Our action plans include carbon footprint measurement, development of our own RES production, and biodiversity protection in cooperation with NGOs in the field of nature.
In-house energy production
We invest in the installation of photovoltaic panels on production hall roofs and the use of heat pumps.
Repair services and circular economy
Repair and service represent a key area of Wikov's operations. Thanks to systematic care for operated equipment, it is possible to significantly extend their life cycle.
From a sustainability perspective, this model has a fundamental benefit: it reduces the consumption of primary raw materials and energy and minimizes the ecological burden associated with mining. Wikov thus minimizes waste and maximizes the reuse of resources.
Social
People, community, and culture
People are the key element of Wikov Group's success. In response to the shortage of qualified workers, we systematically strengthen internal education through the Wikov MGI Training Center (Wikov Academy) and the Seduo.cz platform.
We support equal opportunities, addressing the gender pay gap, flexible working hours, and a transparent wage policy.
Social responsibility
We have a long-term cooperation with the Černí koně (Black Horses) organization and engage in micro-sponsorship of local initiatives. We support charity runs and events with a family overlap.
Sport and movement
We support youth sports: HC Wikov Hronov, Wikov Ski Skuhrov, TOTR Cycling Team. For employees, we organize ice hockey tournaments for the Wichterle Cup and summer and winter camps for children.
Culture and region
We are a proud partner of cultural projects such as the Police Symphony Orchestra, UFFO Trutnov, or the International Folklore Festival in Červený Kostelec. We develop traditions and cultural life in our regions.
Governance
Governance & Strategic Development
The trust of partners, customers, and employees relies on solid principles of management and ethics. The Wikov Group builds on transparent processes, responsible decision-making, and fair risk management.
This approach ensures stable growth and fosters trust in the Wikov brand as a reliable partner.
Litostroj acquisition and renewable energy
The merger of Wikov and Litostroj companies within the Wikov Industry group was a strategic step to leverage synergistic effects. Litostroj strengthens our position in engineering focused on renewable energy sources.
Hydraulic Laboratory Litostroj Power
It ranks among the world's top facilities for research on water turbines and technologies for pumped-storage power plants.
