The Guiding Principles are a short version of the Groups Business Principles,
summarized for our employees around the world, our business partners and the public at large. The phrases typed in blue letters are particularly Freudenberg-specific.
We are committed to anticipating, understanding and meeting our customers' needs and expectations.
As a multinational company of German origin, competing in global markets, our established tradition of innovation and renewal benefits our customers. Constant innovation in everything we do is essential for our long term financial success. We are leaders in continuous improvement and our culture rewards creativity and initiative by all our employees.
Entrepreneurship is our heritage and the foundation of our success.
We continue this tradition through delegated responsibilities,
freedom of action and personal accountability.
As a family company we are devoted to our employees' well-being and personal development.
We reject all forms of discrimination and harassment and show understanding and respect
in our dealings with each other.
Our company and its family shareholders together are committed to protecting the environment and being responsible corporate citizens in all countries and communities in which we do business. We take all possible care to ensure the safety of the workplace and of our products. As a family company we strive for the highest standards of personal behaviour. Fairness and integrity guide our conduct amongst ourselves, towards our business partners and the general public.
After more than 150 years the Freudenberg Group continues to be a wholly owned family enterprise.
We strongly believe that our long term business orientation is a major strength that benefits
our customers and partners. |
