Spar business group switches to energy-efficient battery charging systems

Sustainability in practice

(Wels, Austria, February 2013) Fronius “Selectiva” battery chargers
with “Active Inverter Technology” allow large numbers of forklift truck
batteries to be charged gently at Spar Austria, thus significantly enhancing
the sustainable business activities of the group.

Most people, especially in
Austria, will know the “Spar” brand with the green fir tree in its logo. The
company sees itself first and foremost as a food retailer and operates
supermarkets across Austria, from Vorarlberg to Burgenland. The headquarters of
this family-run company are based in Salzburg. The individual stores in the
various Austrian states are supplied from warehouses run by six subsidiaries.
Around 2000 employees from 38 different nations work in these warehouses.
