Social responsibility
NORRES Schlauchtechnik has a long history of responsible behaviour towards the society we live in. We frequently participate in activities that benefit charitable organisations. We are extremely keen to support projects that help the socially disadvantaged, especially when they involve children. We also make an active contribution towards environmental protection.
NORRES Schlauchtechnik makes regular donations to “Noah's Ark”, a charity that describes itself as “a children’s hospice in the region and for the region”. The Ark’s concept, which is the only one of its kind anywhere in Germany, defines two main functions: to offer a haven for incurably ill children and to act as a short-term care centre for youngsters with severe disabilities. The aim is to assist the families concerned by providing professional care and respite for children and teenagers in the Noah's Ark centre. NORRES traditionally makes a donation to this deserving cause at Christmas.
At NORRES, all people are equal. All our staff benefit from the same opportunities. Their ethnic origin, religion, social background, age, sex or disabilities are considered to be irrelevant. NORRES maintains close links with a centre for handicapped people. Disabled staff carry out their work directly on the NORRES site and are therefore fully integrated in the life of the company.
The sustainable use of natural resources is firmly entrenched in NORRRES Schlauchtechnik's daily work processes. The move to our new “Am Stadthafen” facility coincided with extensive investments in eco-friendly production and HVAC technologies. Efficient insulation, double glazing, centrally controlled air conditioning with water chillers and production utilising heat recovery mean optimal protection for the environment. Since taking possession of the new and completely refurbished plant at the port of Gelsenkirchen in 2009, NORRES has succeeded in reducing the consumption of water, electricity and heating fuel dramatically – despite an almost fourfold increase in floor space.

Many application and design options – AIRDUC® PUR 355 AS TWIN COLOR
The NORRES Group as a manufacturer of innovative hose solutions offers various suitable solutions for many applications. Constant new and further development is the order of the day for this purpose - with the result: The NORRES Group is currently expanding its portfolio by introducing AIRDUC® PUR 355 AS TWIN COLOR.
Application and design options
The antistatic multipurpose polyurethane hose is the first and only hose in the AIRDUC® range that can be coloured in two different colours. This results in an innovative customer advantage: It is possible to customize the hose on customer request and adapt it to company colours or the respective field of application. Customers can thus consistently implement the company's own corporate design. At the same time a higher quality and more professional appearance of the machine component hose and thus of the entire product during use is achieved. Every colour combination is possible.
In addition, the AIRDUC® PUR 355 AS TWIN COLOR can be portrayed as an efficient hose innovation with best product properties. Highly resistant to abrasion and microbes, the hose with its permanently antistatic wall (volume resistance and surface resistance <10⁹Ω) is suitable for many applications. It has increased pressure and vacuum resistance and good oil, gasoline and chemical resistance. The AIRDUC® PUR 355 AS TWIN COLOR can be used in a temperature range from -40 °C to 90 °C, for a short time up to 125 °C.
