💧 In many areas, searching for water is dangerous. People are forced to dig without proper equipment, creating unsafe wells that don’t guarantee #CleanWater. This leads to thirst, sickness, and fatigue, causing health problems, loss of income, and missed school days. When clean #water arrived in Morpus, Kenya, life transformed: 🍎 Fresh fruit from watered plants 🐄 Better income from well-fed livestock 🎓 No school days missed due to illness This is how water transforms lives. NGOs are key to help communities build and manage sustainable water infrastructure. The GF Walk for Water raises awareness and funds for Water Mission, helping communities secure a better future.

🌍 Today, we're raising awareness for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on Goal 12 – Ensuring sustainable consumption and production patterns. Many industries face the challenge of producing more with less, particularly in developing economies, while preserving the world's natural resources for future generations. Innovation, both in processes and technology, is the key to meeting this challenge—and companies like us are at the forefront of these efforts. Take #lacticacid, a vital raw material for biodegradable plastics, such as those found in everyday items like bags, cutlery, and packaging. We have partnered with OMZ for over 10 years, supporting them in developing technologies that convert corn starch into bioplastics using ion exchange technology. In 2020, OMZ expanded its innovative #ionexchange systems to help reduce water usage and halve sewage discharge. Our Diaphragm Valves DIASTAR provide excellent flow characteristics. OMZ was able to use the smaller DN50 valves to downsize equipment, reduce raw material needs, and optimize production. The result? Over 5,000 GF valves deployed, elevating OMZ's customers’ systems to a more sustainable, efficient level while ensuring leak-free performance. This is just one example of how GF is contributing to a smarter, more sustainable future. As part of Georg Fischer, we are committed to the United Nations #SustainableDevelopmentGoals (SDGs) – 17 universal goals for a more sustainable world by 2030. 💡🌱 👉 To find out more about how we are supporting the UN Sustainable Development goals, visit our website: https://lnkd.in/eXQ6R-y3 #Sustainability #SDG12 #BiodegradablePlastics #Innovation #GFPipingSystems #watertreatment

🚶 What if your daily walk was more than a healthy exercise, and a matter of survival? Millions of women and children walk over 6 kilometers each day to collect water in regions where it's scarce. But together, we can help change that. 💧 This year, GF employees are once again walking a symbolic 2 kilometers with buckets of water to support life-saving clean water projects. And we’re excited to have free ski champion Andri Ragettli join the GF Walk for Water in Schaffhausen, Switzerland! Let’s make a real difference, one step at a time.

A premiere night for GF ⭐ 🇨🇳 🇨🇭 GF joined the very first Swiss Night in Shanghai, organized by the Consulate General of Switzerland. On 12 September, 300 guests gathered to mark the 176th anniversary of the Swiss Federal Constitution, including Swiss business leaders, diplomats, and government officials. 🤝 GF was honored to be a sponsor, strengthening our collaboration with Swiss officials and partners in China. This follows the successful opening of our new plants in Yangzhou and Shenyang, which were visited in April by the Ambassador of Switzerland to China and the Consul General of Switzerland in Shanghai. Looking forward to the next collaboration. 期待下一次合作。 #China #Switzerland #TeamWork #GoingForward

❄️ Think all this snow and ice make finding water easy? Not quite. As we follow Anja Blacha through extreme environments, we’re reminded of the importance of valuing and protecting the natural resources that can be easily taken for granted. 💧 “On my expeditions, water is essential—not just for hydration, but also for warmth and acclimatization. Getting clean water is hard work. Collecting snow and ice, then boiling it with limited gas supplies, makes you appreciate every drop. The simple act of turning on a tap after an expedition reminds me of the everyday privilege, we often take for granted,” says Anja. Follow us on Instagram to see how Anja tackles the challenge of getting water in extreme environments 👇 https://lnkd.in/eabPaYji #Water #Sustainability #Caring #Sports #GoingForward

A big thank you to our partner Georg Fischer for providing us with the essential chassis frame for our pod!🙏 This frame is one of the key structural parts of our pod. It forms the base onto which our entire propulsion and levitation systems are built, securely holding our pod during the acceleration and deceleration phases.

✨ Only a few people have managed to climb both the third and fifth highest mountains in the world (especially within just a few weeks). This year, Anja Blacha embarked on expeditions to Makalu and Kangchenjunga in Nepal, accomplishing this incredible milestone. 🦸♀️ Anja’s expeditions not only push the boundaries of human capability but also resonate deeply with GF's values: Performance, Learning, and Caring: “On Kangchenjunga, staying motivated and resilient after the expedition was initially canceled was key. Forming a new team with a positive attitude and #learning from past attempts led to our success.” ⏩ “This experience taught me the power of persistence, independent thinking, and the importance of #collaboration in the face of changing circumstances. It showed me that what seems impossible can be achieved when people push their limits and unite toward a shared goal.” Follow us for more on Anja's amazing journey! #Sports #GoingForward
