WINTER & COMPANY’s 125-year success story is thanks to the careful strategies of our founders and all their descendants. As an aware and responsible organization, we manoeuvre within the triangle of environment, business and society to uphold and secure our good commercial framework over the longer term. Because of this, it is understood that we must protect the environment and work sustainably with the natural resources we use. We steer our company on a watchful growth course, create attractive working conditions and foster our employees.
At WINTER & COMPANY, we understand that we have an impact on the environment through our activities. Upholding the relevant regulations and standards is, naturally, considered an obligation. With an integrated environmental management and judicious measures, we can reduce the ecological “footprint” of our products. Thus, the complete WINTER & COMPANY product palette fulfils the REACH conditions.
Above and beyond this framework, we encourage all divisions to uphold the highest ecological standards. WINTER & COMPANY is FSC™-certified and a member of the UN Global compact. All our environmental certifications are renewed every year and our employees are regularly and thoroughly briefed on newest developments.
One of WINTER & COMPANY’s most important goals is to be a progressive and fair employer. A respectful approach, as well as high standards of employment, are very important pillars of this philosophy. Addition and further education are encouraged and supported, as well as internal opportunities for further training and advancement, whenever possible. Flexible working hours and conditions with adaptable schedules and a selection of part-time positions support our employees in the design of their work-life balance. Overall, we try to offer considerate and attractive work surroundings, which we continuously further improve and develop organisationally, with a careful eye on job security and long-term health.
WINTER & COMPANY should remain independent, within family ownership and stay focused on their core competences creativity, guidance and distribution. The basis for a long-term oriented further development is the company’s financial independence. Quantified, that implies an on-going above-average high equity ratio, as well as a margin in line with the industry standard. We want to manage the required growth from within the firm, primarily by better coverage of existing markets and expanding into new geographic areas. Second, we want to encourage our growth through innovation and a further expanded product line. In all our enterprise goals, WINTER & COMPANY remains committed to: social responsibility for our workers, business partners and clients, ethical leadership, cultural and environmental responsibility and our local roots and global perspective. These are our obligations.
