Corporate Responsibility

It is our aspiration to combine performance-oriented professionalism with a cooperation characterised by humanity.

Our goal is to meet and exceed the expectations of our customers, suppliers, business associates and shareholders. There is only one way to accomplish this: Together and as a family business with strong shareholders and long-sighted management.

We also focus on environmental protection and sustainability. We are paying attention to an efficient use of energy and resources, starting from the procurement of raw materials to the point of shipping the products. We avoid unnecessary distances, hazardous raw materials, energy-intensive manufacturing processes and we keep CO2 emissions on the lowest possible level.

We realise:

Every company is only as good as its employees. Thus, our focus particularly concentrates on the targeted promotion of education and training.

We are committed to our social responsibility and the ten principles that form the basis of the “Global Compact”.
