Responsibility
What a Healthy Company Means to Us
As an independent, third-generation family business, we think and make decisions with the long term in mind. Chasing short-term trends is not how we work. We develop eyewear with a focus on functionality, precise craftsmanship, and design created with more than one season in mind. Repairability is part of that approach, too. Spare parts are available for approximately 85% of components and are kept available for around six years.
Our environmental performance is also part of how our company develops. Through our EMAS environmental management system, we identify and assess the environmental impacts of our own operations and use those findings to define goals and measures. We also provide information on environmental and social topics, goals, and key figures in our voluntary sustainability report. Both are independently reviewed on a regular basis.
What makes a company successful over the long term? For us, it takes more than a positive balance sheet. How our environmental performance develops over time, the quality of our products, and the conditions we create for our employees are all part of what we consider a healthy company.
"Our headquarters in Linz has been part of our story for more than 60 years. This is where we develop and produce our eyewear, and where we continue to invest in our production, our employees, and the ongoing development of our processes."
But above all, a healthy company depends on the people who help shape it. Safe working conditions, health, training and professional development, and the ability to balance work and family life are all part of that. The principles that guide how we work together—within our company and with others—are set out in our company-wide Code of Conduct.
