BERGER Bau SE, a prominent family business with roots in Passau, has been actively involved in the Bavarian Environmental and Climate Pact for many years. The company, with a 120-year history, employs around 3,000 people across 100 locations in Europe, generating an annual turnover of €700 million. Recently, it received a participation certificate from Bavarian State Minister Thorsten Glauber, presented by Mayor Andreas Rother.

BERGER Bau SE, committed to voluntary operational environmental protection measures, has been certified according to the ISO 14001 standard. In a significant move, the company is converting its Vilshofen operating site from gas to district heating as an energy carrier. This transition aligns with the company's focus on renewable energies, including combined heat and power plants, photovoltaic systems, and district heating at its large sites. Despite extensive searches, specific details about the environmental and climate change protection measures adopted by BERGER Bau SE since 2020 were not readily available in public records.
