Eco warriors
As a leading global supplier of technology and services, the Bosch Group has offices and subsidiaries in more than 60 countries worldwide. Focusing on the three main business areas of automotive technology, industrial technology as well as consumer goods and building technology, Bosch Group generated revenue of more than €47 billion in 2010.
Bosch continually invests in sustainable improvements to its existing product ranges and in the development of new technologies, which ensures it is providing some of the most energy-efficient and eco-friendly products available. This is reflected in its research and development budget, which surpassed €4 billion in 2010. No less than 45 per cent of this expenditure was directed toward eco-friendly, and resource-conserving products. Researchers and developers in all business sectors at Bosch work continuously on finding solutions to the challenges of environmental protection. This sees the company applying for 3,800 patents a year, which stands at 15 patents a day!
