COMPANY HISTORY BECOMES PHILOSOPHY.

PHILOSOPHY AND VALUES

When a business is founded on craftsmanship, that has a clear effect on everything it does. Feasibility is the most important criterion for the joy in experimentation that made our founder Friedrich Bentlage stand out. He started by using the process of lithography to print decals, which became a highly successful product even then thanks to their versatility. Constantly rediscovering our craft is still the driving force behind our work today. It forms a basis for sustainable economic activity.


We are aware that our actions not only affect ourselves and our customers, but also have an impact on society. In everything we do, we want to keep our counterparts and their needs in mind. 


And, of course, this also influences our daily actions. For us, quality is therefore above all an aspect of sustainability.

This is also reflected in our values:

We are part of our market and therefore customer-, quality-, and innovation-oriented.

We love developing new things and being the first to get involved in new fields.

We see ourselves as a constant partner for our customers.


This is achieved through consistently high craftsmanship, the highest technological standards and innovative expertise.

As a family business, sustainability is more important to us than short-term profit.


Our environmental and quality policies are shaped by this understanding.

As a responsible company, we feel particularly committed to environmental protection and consistently gear our business activities towards avoiding environmental pollution and conserving resources.

We are a member of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce's climate initiative and have made a voluntary commitment to achieve climate-neutral production by 2030.


We intend to achieve this through the following measures:


  • We regularly review our activities and processes in order to minimize any negative environmental impact and minimize energy and resource consumption.
  • During the development of new products and the selection of new operating resources, environmental compatibility is carefully examined in advance.
  • We are committed to complying with all binding obligations applicable to the company.
  • We are committed to continuously improve our environmental performance and set specific environmental goals each year.
  • Acting in an environmentally conscious manner and conserving energy and resources is the responsibility of all employees. Managers ensure that a sense of responsibility is promoted at all levels.

  • Customer-oriented and service-conscious actions form the basis for customer satisfaction. We see customer complaints as opportunities to continuously improve our internal processes.
  • Our employees are the key to our company's success. All employees strive to ensure consistently high quality in the interests of our customers and are committed to meeting the requirements applicable to their respective areas of responsibility. We promote this through appropriate training and support our employees in fulfilling their own social responsibilities.
  • Our quality policy is determined by the management. It is regularly reviewed for its suitability and appropriateness and adjusted as necessary. The management is committed to consistently applying and continuously improving the quality management system.
  • Promoting entrepreneurial thinking and action among employees is a prerequisite for their involvement in a continuous improvement process. We question the status quo and constantly work to improve the quality and effectiveness of our products and processes. To this end, all processes are reviewed for compliance through regular internal audits.
  • We are a reliable and consistent partner not only for our customers, but also for our suppliers, and therefore maintain a fair and informative communication style. We also place the highest quality demands on our suppliers and support them in pursuing common quality goals. For us, a long-term and fair partnership is just as important as an appropriate price level when selecting suppliers.
