Our family values

As a family-owned company, we think and act across generations. Based on Stefan Schörghuber's corporate philosophy, we have honed our family values in the context of transforming our group and established them as concrete target for our business divisions − adapting them in line with the respective industry and locations, and to ensure the greatest impact. One core family value is sustainability. Our group has always seen itself as a good corporate citizen, with protecting the climate and resources as its overarching objective.
