At Vogel’s, we believe quality and responsibility go hand in hand. For over 50 years, we have developed AV solutions built to last, reliable and easy to use every day.
Quality, long life, and responsible business have long been part of how we work. Today, we make our impact more measurable with product data, ecosheets and independent assessments.
We look at the full life cycle of our products:
This helps us improve step by step, while keeping the quality and design Vogel’s stands for.
Vogel’s is B Corp certified with a B Impact Score of 80.6. This certification assesses our impact on employees, customers, community, governance and the environment.
A product that lasts longer needs replacing less often. That is why we focus on:
We use the Vogel’s Sustainable Design Manifest. It helps us include responsibility in new product development.
Our ecosheets give insight into the environmental impact of our products. They show, among other things:
This information is based on Life Cycle Assessment methods. We are extending it from consumer products to Pro-AV solutions, so that professional customers can make better-informed choices.
Responsibility starts at the design table. We look critically at materials and production processes.
We also pay close attention to packaging. We reduce packaging material where possible and replace materials when a better recyclable option is available.
We also work to make logistics more efficient. By centralising activities and organising processes more intelligently, we reduce unnecessary handling.
Good employment practices are central at Vogel’s. That is why we have a code of conduct. It covers topics such as privacy, conflicts of interest, improper payments, anti-competitive behaviour and environmental impact.
We also support a safe working environment, both in our own organisation and at our suppliers. As a family business, we offer employees a fair and safe workplace with room for talent and ambition.
We believe clarity builds trust. With verified information on the environmental impact of our products, we help customers make more informed choices. That is why we provide ecosheets and EPDs.
We calculate Global Warming Potential (GWP) using life cycle analysis software to show the impact on climate change.
An EPD, or Environmental Product Declaration, is a standardised and externally checked document describing environmental performance based on a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). Verified by independent third-party EcoReview.
Responsibility is not a finish line. We keep measuring, learning and improving. Together with employees, customers and partners, we work on AV solutions where quality, innovation and responsibility come together.
Vogel’s. For Tomorrow..
The ‘Footprint Verified’ logo shows that the calculations of our Global Warming Potential (GWP) documented in our Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) are approved by EcoReview. This is an independent and recognized Life Cycle Assessment expert. This party validates that the footprint of Vogel’s calculated products is realistic and determined according to standards. You will find the logo on our best-selling products (such as our COMFORT series TV wall mounts).

Another goal we pursue is responsible production and consumption. It is our greatest challenge: how do we reduce our CO₂ footprint without compromising the high quality and design of our products? We are working on this in various ways.
First, we look carefully at where our raw materials come from and how our products are made. One proven way to conserve raw materials is to make high-quality products that last. We also keep looking for ways to reduce the environmental impact of production, for example, by cutting production steps or components where possible.
Since 2021, we have replaced EPS (polystyrene) in the packaging of our new consumer product lines with moulded paper pulp. The cardboard and paper-pulp packaging for COMFORT and QUICK can be recycled as waste paper and cardboard. Where possible, we have replaced single-use plastics with other materials and are working to remove the remaining plastic. For now, this plastic is still needed for large-scale production and to prevent specific product damage.
Since 2021, we have no longer used polystyrene in the packaging of our QUICK, COMFORT and ELITE product lines. This reduced the environmental impact (CO₂ equivalent) of a full-motion COMFORT TV wall mount by 77% compared with a comparable predecessor from the WALL Series.
Steel accounts for the largest share of our products’ environmental impact. To maintain product quality and service life, we cannot use less steel.
We continually improve other components instead. In 2024, for example, we replaced a COMFORT mounting screw that combined plastic and steel inseparably with an all-steel screw, so it can now be recycled as steel. In 2026, we combined a separate plastic Vogel's logo and a cable clip into one component.
Our goal? To maintain the quality of our products while reducing their environmental impact.
Spare parts need to be produced, transported, stored and packaged. We therefore keep only the most frequently requested parts in stock.
To encourage considered ordering and limit transport, we charge for shipping and ask for a small contribution towards the part.
Vogel’s aims to repair products in line with relevant European legal requirements. Can you no longer use your Vogel’s product without this spare part? We will help you find a suitable solution. Please contact our Consumer Care team.
