We perceive our business as a significant responsibility. Therefore, we focus on supporting society and developing the Ústí nad Labem region, where we are based, as well as selected nationwide projects.
In addition to our own donation fund, we support sports clubs in the region, cultural events, public benefit and social projects, as well as other charitable and non-profit organizations operating throughout the Czech Republic.
ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) is a key concept that we, as the ARMEX Group, take very seriously. It is a set of principles focusing on environmental protection, social responsibility, and sustainable management.
We implement these principles in practice by installing photovoltaic panels at our gas stations, switching to green electricity in our Prague offices, and offering renewable energy sources to our customers.
Ecological mobility is another key area. Currently, we use LNG vehicles and are testing electric cars, preparing for a transition to a more environmentally friendly fleet. We also motivate employees towards sustainable travel through initiatives like "Bike to Work" or "Step Challenges."
For us, ESG is not just a legislative obligation but primarily a strategic opportunity. Our planned decarbonization strategy has a clear goal – to reduce emissions, increase energy efficiency, and contribute to sustainable development in the long term. We demonstrate that responsibility and innovation go hand in hand and believe that we can be an inspiration in this regard.
We view sports as an integral part of a healthy lifestyle, as well as a source of entertainment, joy, and community. Therefore, we have long supported projects that develop sports in Děčín and beyond.
We have been the general partner of the basketball club BK ARMEX Děčín, one of the most successful basketball clubs in the Czech Republic, which has been playing at the top level for over 20 years.
BK ARMEX ENERGY DĚČÍN: 80 Years of Basketball and a New Chapter of Long-Term Cooperation
In 2015, we established the charitable ARMEX ENERGY Donation Fund, through which we support children and young people in adverse life and social situations on their educational journey.
We are the general partner of the "Education for All" program and annually financially support more than 30 students in the districts of Děčín, Litoměřice, Teplice, and Ústí nad Labem.
This assistance helps develop the talents of gifted children who, due to challenging life or family conditions, do not have the same starting position as others. The funds can be used for educational aids, school events, and extracurricular courses.
We have long collaborated with the Ústí Community Foundation to support the region in several areas, including annual participation in the Ústí nad Labem Half Marathon.
In 2024, the team of charity runners, including our colleagues from ARMEX ENERGY, collectively ran an impressive 1,751 kilometers, raising over 200,000 CZK to support children in the region.
Supporting local communities and improving children's living conditions is a priority for us. We are proud of this collaboration and all who participate in it.
We are a partner of the project Hasičovo, which creates a shared space for professional and volunteer firefighters and their families.
This space promotes awareness of firefighting work, experience sharing, and supports related activities such as education, sports, and prevention.
We consider the functioning of a supportive community, which helps its members handle the challenges and demands of this honorable and dangerous profession, to be extremely important and beneficial.
In 2024, we contributed over 500,000 CZK to support the Hasičovo project and various firefighting competitions.
Zdravotní klaun (Medical Clown) is a charitable organization that, since 2001, has been helping pediatric and geriatric patients cope with treatment through laughter.
Its mission is to bring joy, positive energy, and especially hope to places where it's scarce – particularly in children's hospital rooms, specialized clinics, and homes caring for seriously ill children.
Linka bezpečí (The Safety Line) has been providing assistance to children and students facing challenging life situations or everyday problems they cannot handle on their own for 30 years.
They place great emphasis on prevention – consultants visit schools and sports clubs, create educational videos, podcasts, and write blogs. Supporting the mental health of the most vulnerable is immensely meaningful to us.
The Popálky organization provides continuous and comprehensive support to adults and children who have suffered burn injuries, as well as to their families and loved ones. They organize meetings, workshops, and summer camps to help burned children better cope with their situation.
In addition, they run prevention programs for all age and social groups to help prevent such injuries. Supporting people and families in challenging life situations is deeply essential to us.
