Compliance and commitment

Our promise

Our values

Our values form the foundation of our actions and are inextricably linked to our daily business. Integrity and honesty are our top priorities.

We are committed to transparent communication, both internally and externally, in order to strengthen the trust of our customers, partners and employees. Respect and fairness characterise our cooperation and decisions.

Our aim is to develop sustainable solutions that meet the needs of our customers and at the same time fulfil our social responsibility.

Compliance

We are convinced that sustainable economic success can only be achieved in harmony with the protection of the environment for existing and future generations and the protection of human rights.

We consider a liberal and democratic self-image to be very important for a better world of tomorrow.

With the Supply Chain Duty of Care Act (LkSG), which will come into force on 1 January 2023, the protection of human rights and environmental protection in our own business area and, in particular, along our supply chains has moved further into the focus of our corporate activities.

Compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and adherence to our own standards are of the utmost importance to us.

Environmental and climate protection

We pursue a policy of sustainability and think about the generations that follow us. We are constantly scrutinising our processes and our actions in order to work more efficiently and thus conserve resources.

Our next major goal is to reduce our CO2 footprint through emission-free vehicles (noise and exhaust fumes).
