Corporate Social Responsibility
Our Commitment
to the Environment
Reduction of CO₂ Emissions
Every photovoltaic mounting system we build supports panels that produce clean energy for decades. According to the IEA, every GW of installed photovoltaic capacity prevents ~1.5 million tonnes of CO₂ per year.
In Greece, with an average grid emission factor of ~260 g CO₂/kWh and 1,700+ hours of sunshine, every MW of photovoltaics avoids ~350–400 tonnes of CO₂/year. Our mounting systems support thousands of MW across the country.
Metal Recycling
Scrap management is a strategic priority. Every offcut from laser cutting, press brake and CNC is collected, sorted by alloy and sent to certified recycling partners.
Recycling steel saves ~74% of the energy of primary production, while aluminium reaches ~95%. Less extraction, fewer emissions, less waste.
Growth
in Northern Greece
AXINAR, with 25 years of steady presence in the Oraiokastro Industrial Area, started as a small family workshop and has grown into one of the most modern metal fabrication facilities in Northern Greece.
Today we employ 50 people and export our know-how to Italy, France, Spain, Austria, Germany, the United Kingdom and South Africa.
Every project of ours creates ripple benefits: partnerships with local suppliers, support for regional employment and reinforcement of the productive fabric of Macedonia.
Social
Actions
Voluntary Blood Donation
Twice a year, we organise voluntary blood donations at our premises in cooperation with hospitals in the area. Our employees also take part in external campaigns.
It is not a corporate initiative, it is a collective decision of our people.
Support for Technical Education
We regularly send metal test pieces to technical schools nationwide, so that students can practise welding with real materials.
Scrap that is offcut for us can become a student’s first project. We encourage other industries to follow suit.
Academic Research & Student Teams
We collaborate with student teams from AUTh and NTUA, providing free metal fabrication. From Formula Student teams and ASAT to robotics competitions.
For us, it is an investment in tomorrow’s engineers.
Support for Local Associations
We provide financial support to sports, cultural and traditional associations in Oraiokastro and the wider Thessaloniki area.
A business thrives only when the society around it thrives too.
