Social Responsibility

“Training and education of young people are the most valuable investments in the future.”
(Franz-W. Aumund)

The AUMUND Group has always stood for social responsibility, and from the very beginning this has been reflected above all in its support for the education of young people. As Franz-W. Aumund gave the business an international outlook, the social commitment of the AUMUND Group of companies took on an international dimension as well. Social projects around the world are supported with the personal involvement of the managing directors of the AUMUND companies as well as SCHADE Lagertechnik GmbH, SAMSON Materials Handling Ltd and ESI EUROSILO.

Today the AUMUND Group is owned by the Aumund Foundation, continuing the legacy of Franz-Walter Aumund.

Aumund Foundation

This social commitment has been placed on a professional footing through the establishment of charitable foundations. Since 2006, educational projects have received substantial support from the Franz-W. Aumund Stiftung. The Aumund Foundation, established in 2019, promotes science and research in Germany and is dedicated in particular to projects in education and healthcare worldwide.
