Our guiding values

Explore our values shared across Cembrit

We are customer-oriented

Our customers are at the core of our business. Their continued preference for Cembrit products is what drives us ahead.

We strive to go the extra mile to understand their concerns, and we organise Cembrit – from product development to sales support – to make life easier for them.

We take pride in our deep technical knowledge and share it with those interacting with our products.

We are driven by a sustainable agenda

Buildings last for many years, and we acknowledge the responsibility that comes with delivering building materials.

We strive to include a sustainability perspective in all processes and proudly innovate to make our products even more environmentally friendly.

We build sustainable relationships with customers, with each other and with the communities around us.

We are pro-active and set ambitious goals

We value proactivity and encourage colleagues to take responsibility and act on changes. Mistakes are okay, and we learn from them to reach our goals.

We want to develop as people and as a business, and we realise that this requires us to take the initiative and move outside our comfort zone.

We believe Cembrit can make a difference in the transition towards a more sustainable building industry. With both courage and humility, we lean forward to make an impact.

We are trustworthy, and do what we say

At Cembrit, we do what we say.

This stems from a long tradition of engineering and delivering quality materials.

Like the longevity of our products, we can be trusted in the long term. We communicate clearly to ensure mutual understanding when entering into agreements.

And we back our reasoning with data to facilitate the best collaborations and decisions.

We treat everyone with respect and integrity

We believe the best businesses are built on respectful behaviour.

This starts with respecting our colleagues and the differences between us.

But it also extends to our deep respect for the architects, craftsmen and contractors that envision and create attractive buildings with our products. We want this professional respect to be mutual.

It is on this basis that we engage with customers, colleagues, suppliers and partners.

We are informal and straight-forward

We thrive with opposing views and believe that everyone – no matter the rank or background – can contribute with important insights.

If the best argument wins, everyone wins, and we encourage everyone to partake in discussions.

We take customers and colleagues seriously without being pretentious, and we believe that it might even be possible to have fun at the same time.
