What do warming blankets and beekeeper honey have in common?
Health, sustainability and a positive CO₂ balance.
The MOECK WARMING SYSTEM® significantly reduces the CO₂ burden in patient care compared with disposable competitor products. However, despite all efficiency measures, its use still results in a certain level of CO₂ emissions.
A single bee colony can bind up to 60 tonnes of CO₂ per year. [ *]
Our goal is to meaningfully offset the CO₂ footprint that we continue to generate — despite all other optimisation measures. For this reason, MOECK GmbH is actively committed as a company to the establishment and maintenance of several bee colonies.
By doing so, we aim to meet our aspiration of enabling a climate‑neutral solution in patient care.
Visit us, secure a jar of our beekeeper honey from our own bee colonies, and start a conversation with us — we look forward to meeting you.
Health for people and nature
Harvested directly from the hive, honey offers a wide range of health benefits. It has antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant properties and can help reduce inflammation in the body.
Honey is commonly used to support wound care, relieve throat or skin conditions, ease gastrointestinal discomfort, and assist in the treatment of fungal infections.
It can also help to soothe mucus and alleviate coughs. Honey has been shown to support protection against metabolic syndrome, including obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and disorders of lipid metabolism.
In addition, it contains minerals, trace elements, enzymes and antioxidants that strengthen the immune system and contribute to overall health.
