Uncompromising quality – that's our daily goal. Nobody can fool us when it comes to quality. And to keep it that way, we work with passion, dedication and skill in all parts of our company. The result is impressive: for us, our customers, our partners and the market. This unique quality is our claim and our best selling point.
We do everything to guarantee continuity. We work with foresight and responsibility for people and the environment. Our customers, suppliers and employees have relied on our company for generations. Protecting our environment and the responsible use of natural resources are second nature to us.
We keep our promises. We say what we think. We stand by what we do. Reliability and sincerity are essential parts of our corporate culture, which we cultivate both with one another and with our customers and business partners. This is apparent through our communication, our behaviour and our products.
We are a family company that maintains a good community. Since our foundation, we have experienced just how much strength can come from community. This sense of community is based on two properties that are as simple as they are effective: respect and tolerance.
We carry our history forward into the future. We have been demonstrating a pioneering spirit ever since our company was founded in 1805. With the knowledge and experience from over 200 years, we are shaping the future while remaining true to our roots.
To improve, you have to change. We are open to change, and are continuously developing as a company. We use the development of the market and society as an opportunity for product innovations, and we adapt our processes accordingly.
Our brands and our company stand for attentiveness and well-being. With our products, we make an important contribution towards healthy nutrition. You can feel and taste it. Just as our products ensure well-being, we ensure each other’s well-being when working together.
