GROHE sets new standards in forward-thinking manufacturing “Made in Germany” and con-tinues to expand its technological leadership: GROHE uses the 3D metal-printing process at its Hemer plant, redesigning the GROHE Atrio and GROHE Allure Brilliant faucets.

In 2015, GROHE commissioned a combined heat and power plant (CHP) in Hemer. This generates3,400,000 kWh of electricity p.a., which is equivalent to a consumption of 680 four-person households.

The electricity is used in the foundry for melting brass. The generated waste heat is used in electroplating for surfa-ce coating. The CHP can help save up to 1,200 tonnes of CO2 per year.
