  • Our new facility

In 2025, Step International moved into its new 950 m² production facility, purpose-built to sustainably reduce energy consumption and carbon footprint, while improving working conditions and streamlining operations. Specifically, we implemented:

  • the installation of 254 solar panels
  • the removal of gas-fired heating
  • a better-insulated, higher-performance building envelope
  • 100% LED lighting throughout
  • a modern loading and unloading dock

Reduction of our carbon footprint

254 solar panels now cover 58% of our electricity consumption.
Heating: an optimal temperature is maintained for raw materials—balancing comfort and efficiency—supported by air destratification to ensure even heat distribution throughout the building.
Gas heating has been eliminated.
100% LED lighting, further optimized with zone-based motion sensors in the warehouse.
Enhanced insulation across the roof, walls, and floor, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
