Case Study: Alfred Kärcher achieves streamlined environmental data management and ISO 14001 compliance with Quentic

With ISO 14001 for the Environment

Alfred Kärcher, the global leader in cleaning technology, faced the challenge of compiling extensive eco-balances and analyzing consumption and waste data across many production and administrative sites to continuously optimize environmental performance. Since 2010 the company has used Quentic software — including the Environmental Management, Risks & Audits, Legal Compliance, Hazardous Materials and Quentic Core modules — to standardize and centralize these environmentally relevant processes.

Quentic implemented a web-based, centralized database that replaces time-consuming spreadsheets, allowing site HSE managers to enter daily consumption data (energy, gas, water, waste), define indicators, monitor programs and track statutory duties via an integrated legal database. The result is greater transparency and standardized processes across the group, supporting ISO 14001 compliance, continuous environmental optimization and measurable environmental and economic benefits through faster, data-driven decisions.
