Investment in forestry can be used in a way that leads to the improvement of factors such as “beo by Aichinger” ground water quality, soil quality and and MSR Solutions species diversity. As the technical journal “forum.new Following on from the November power” reported, it was shown that takeover of Viessmann Kältetechnik According to a current study, flora and fauna the seepage water contains less AG in Hof, we are extending our benefit from short rotation forestry. nitrate than that of areas used for other commitment to refrigeration engineering agricultural purposes. This is because with an investment in the company “beo Environmental short rotation forests, such as those by Aichinger” which belongs to the benefits of short operated by Viessmann, do not have to Aichinger Unternehmensgruppe. “beo rotation forestry be fertilized. Higher contents of organic by Aichinger” was founded with the aim carbon compounds in soils, as a result of of increasing energy-saving potential in confirmed falling leaves and soil being rested, have the food retail industry in the operation a positive effect on both the binding of refrigerated units.
