Social responsibility is the basis of our corporate guidelines. A fair and trustworthy interaction with our customers, employees and the social environment is just as much a fixed component as the avoidance of corruption and a consequent orientation to the principles of sustainability. With the goal to minimise business, operational and environmental risks, we commit ourselves to an active risk management. At the same time, with put great emphasis on the topic of safety, in development, production and delivery of our products. As a soundly managed company we promote transparent reporting and we maintain a strong financial base.
This is how we secure our business success for the future.
Committed, highly qualified staff are key to every company, and ours is no exception. They put their heart and soul into their work and are essential to the company's success.
And we are proud of this fact. But we also know that not everyone has the same opportunities to make full use of their talents, to add to their qualifications or to continually progress their careers.
This is why we set up the Hans Lenze Foundation. It was established in 1990 by Elisabeth Belling to mark what would have been the 100th birthday of her father Hans Lenze, the founder of our company and is currently managed by Julia von Opel, his great-granddaughter.
Through the foundation we provide assistance to all capable and committed young people who are unable to reach their goals for financial reasons. And it's not just employees we help - anyone is more than welcome to apply to our foundation for assistance.
