Mey GmbH in Albstadt: Pioneer for sustainable textile production!
On June 6, 2025, the company Mey GmbH & Co. KG from Albstadt-Lautlingen was awarded the title “Zukunfts.Länd.macher”. The Baden-Württemberg Environment Minister, Thekla Walker, presented the honor to the managing directors Florian and Matthias Mey. According to schwaebische.de, this happened as part of an event dedicated to promoting sustainable practices in the textile industry.
The award is intended to honor innovative and sustainable projects in climate, environmental and resource protection. Walker highlighted the company's long-term efforts in environmental protection and resource efficiency. In her speech, she emphasized the need for new thinking within the traditional industry, especially in view of the challenges of climate change. Sustainability must be viewed as an important pillar of entrepreneurial success.
Innovative strength and responsibility
The event also included a tour of Mey's production facilities, where guests in attendance learned more about regional manufacturing, the development of innovative fabric concepts and the use of sustainable materials. A central aspect was also the use of green electricity, which plays an important role in the company's sustainable strategy.
In their words of thanks, Florian and Matthias Mey expressed their appreciation for the award and emphasized their responsibility towards nature. They saw the award not only as an appreciation of their previous achievements, but also as an incentive for future improvements in the environmental sector. This illustrates how closely the commitment to sustainability is linked to the company philosophy.
The aim of the award
The “Zukunfts.Länd.Macher” award is given by the Ministry of the Environment of Baden-Württemberg to increase the visibility of companies and projects that are actively committed to climate and resource protection. The aim is to promote creative solutions and encourage others to imitate them. The award-winning approaches show that the energy transition and climate protection are already being successfully implemented in Baden-Württemberg, as um.baden-wuerttemberg.de reports.
This award makes it clear that the Baden-Württemberg region plays a pioneering role in the implementation of sustainable projects and that innovative companies such as Mey GmbH & Co. KG make a significant contribution to this progress.
