Our values and principles

HR campaign subject with Marianne Germann, Lukas Blum and Robin Nellen

We achieve our goals together

Our passion for wood is central to all our activities. Our values and principles grew out of a combination of our longstanding experience and the never-ending discoveries to be made about the material we use to build and create. Today, these values and principles guide our partnerships both within and outside the company and determine how we think and act as a business.

Curious: we are open-minded, transparent, constructive and thoughtful

Our five core values keep us on track:
 

Ambitious

We set the bar high and tackle our tasks with purpose, motivation and passion.

Curious

We think outside the box. Open to new ideas, we continue to develop in a constructive and reflective manner.

Human

Every single person matters to us. That’s why we treat each other with appreciation, respect, trust and authenticity.

Aware

We take responsibility in a reliable and socially responsible manner – for our work, our environment and for each other.

Entrepreneurial

We shape our future with foresight, competence, innovation and use-oriented solutions.

Our fascination for timber is what drives us

Everything we do is driven by a fascination for our material and the innovation along the entire timber supply chain.

Our work with timber pushes the boundaries of what is possible: we harness new technologies and unlock potential. At the same time, we are constantly refining our processes, products and services.

We nurture people and their potential

We create an innovative and motivating environment that allows both our staff and our business partners to develop their skills and abilities.

Our joint working practices both within and outside the company rest on trust, appreciation, tolerance – and a healthy dose of humour. We also encourage an open error and feedback culture.

We work with clients in equal partnerships

We care about the needs and ideas of our clients. We work in partnership and develop open, transparent and constructive solutions – this counts as much for our services and how we perform them as for the way we design our processes.
