Ever since our company was established in 1882, the commitment to conducting our business responsibily has been a cornerstone of our corporate culture.

Economic success is the prerequisite that enables us to take a responsible and sustainable approach to business. Only if our operations are profitable can we invest in the latest technology, train people, give social projects our long-term backing and also give our investors a fair deal.

We make the needs of the consumer our top priority. By implementing the very latest scientific knowledge, we ensure the safety and high quality standards of all our products.

Our employees determine our company’s success; their behavior is the key to our responsible business activities. Through our employee development initiatives, we offer exciting and a wide ranging career opportunities.

Our international policy of environmental protection has been in place for many years. Its emphasis is on preserving resources and using energy more efficiently.

We support projects aimed at helping young people around the world and creating real opportunities for them – such as promoting equal opportunities. We believe that our contribution will advance social development.
