Our values
That's us - that's what makes us who we are.

As a traditional family business, we live and act according to firm principles. They play a central role in our corporate management, provide orientation and define our approach. As an integral part of our culture, they reflect our self-perception, offer consistency in a constantly changing industry and help us to remain authentic and focussed.
That's us - that's what makes us who we are.
These seven values form the basis for all areas of our collaboration within and across departments and across all positions. Internally and externally.
Connectedness
In the culture of a family business, we treat each other with respect and are there for each other.
Courage
We are always boldly breaking new ground and shaping the future of our company.
Customer orientation
We reliably stand by our customers and support them in achieving their goals.
Willingness to perform
Inspiring our customers with outstanding quality and the best service is our greatest motivation.
Sincerity
Honesty and openness in our dealings with each other and with all our business partners are important to us.
Passion
We rise to every challenge with enthusiasm and passion.
Responsibility
We align our corporate goals with the long term and harmonise them with the sustainable use of natural resources.
"The bottom line is that the formulated values are the cornerstones of how we think and act at Klingele. They are not a theoretical construct, but arise from our actual dealings with each other and with our customers."
