For the second time, Peter Seppele GesmbH, a company with a long-standing business tradition located in Feistritz an der Drau/Austria, organised a symposium with international and renowned participants. In a snow-covered fairy-tale like scenery Thermofloc distributors from more than 20 countries met at the *****Hotel Pulverer in Bad Kleinkirchheim to exchange their practical experiences and their visions for the future of comfortable living. As befits an event of such importance, the symposium was opened by Mr Seppele jun., the managing director, who also gave a welcoming speech. Following this, Mr Heimo Krainer, head of the company’s division for insulating material, described the development the division has undergone over the past few years.

On 19 June 2008, Seppele’s “Thermofloc” was awarded the “Environmental Label by the Republic of Austria” by Josef Pröll, the Federal Minister for Environmental Affairs”. In his speech on Thursday, Minister Pröll pointed out that this is an award for a company “that does more for the environment that is actually required by law; a company that shows that investments into the environment can be economically successful.” Seppele produces 7,000 tons of Thermofloc per year. This insulation material fulfils – and actually outdoes – all ecological and thermo-technical criteria and is supplied by Seppele in 20 European countries.
