Long-term values

More than 90 years of innovation for the benefit of our customers, employees, shareholders and the community – that is the hallmark of the Datwyler Group. Over this period, Datwyler has evolved from a family-owned Swiss company into an international group. Building on our strong roots, we have developed our own style with high standards. Customer responsiveness, innovation capability and commitment are core values that guide the way we run our business over the long term.

We strive to deliver sustainable profitable growth for the benefit of our stakeholders as the foundation for adding long-term value and preserving the corporate independence of the Datwyler Group. In our efforts, we are addressing the challenges of our times. Our sustainability reporting has been expanded and also supported by quantitative data as part of the Annual Report 2010. For the third time we have adopted the voluntary Sustainability Reporting Guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). This has been checked and confirmed by GRI.

Datwyler is also a participant of the UN Global Compact. This is an initiative launched by the United Nations which espouses ten principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment and combating corruption. As a UN Global Compact participant, Datwyler undertakes to follow the ten principles and to accept its responsibility within society.
