Quality begins in the purchasing department with the selection of suppliers and raw materials.
Acting and thinking sustainably
We have a special responsibility to protect the environment and each of us contributes to this at our workplaces. We do not just pay lip service to the concept of promoting the sustainability of our company, this is one of the fundamental goals in all areas. By 2025 we want to further improve efficiency with respect to how we use raw materials and energy carriers without compromising on performance and quality. With regard to our product range, we want to establish new products in the market that meet even the strictest of ecological and consumer protection demands. We will continue to disclose our progress in this field in our annual reports.
For a medium-sized family-run company like Remmers, the planned and transparently managed improvement of our sustainability is a core company goal and is therefore permanently anchored in our mission statement.
As part of the "Integrated Management System" established at Remmers, we have had our continuous improvement audited annually for over 20 years by independent, renowned auditors.

The Remmers mission statement
The policy statement of the Remmers Gruppe AG outlines the principles and mission of our quality, environment and occupational safety management systems and forms a framework within which we can define our goals and assess the level of achievement. This policy underscores our commitment to customer orientation and the continuous improvement of all company processes.

This opens up opportunities for success by means of trusting and reliable partnerships with our customers.
The focus of all our actions is our customer base and ensuring customer satisfaction, the continuous improvement of our management system, the avoidance of injuries and illnesses among our workforce, continuous improvement of health and safety, and also the improvement of our ecological footprint by handling resources economically. At work we avoid any kind of discrimination e.g. with respect to race, religion, gender, sexual orientation or age. In our company we ensure that none of our employees are subject to abuse or harassment.
Documented improvement of our environment performance
Remmers’ commitment to continuous improvement, also with respect to our footprint, is much more than just lip service. We continuously assess our improvement potential and use this to set ourselves new goals each year. We have proven that the action we then take leads to documented and continuous improvement of our environmental performance as shown in our environmental statement.
Quality
Quality by Remmers is not a coincidence, it is the result of teamwork, competence and care. No production charge ever leaves the plant without having been tested carefully. Customers are becoming more demanding, the production tests are, too. The objective is not to reach a goal that is continuously decreasing in size by carrying out increasingly complex corrections, on the contrary:
The less corrections required, the better this is for a constant level of product quality. This can be achieved by ensuring that all interfaces interlock seamlessly. Finally, our concept rounds off the quality of the sales team by means of a high-performance network of specialists that work closely with industrial, craft and DIY sectors.
The quality principle carries on during the development and practical testing of the product formulas by the research and development department.
Remmers also focuses on quality in production. Remmers continuously invests in state-of-the-art production systems and concepts. The result: extremely stable and reproducible processes.
