What is actually behind WKT's 5 corporate values?
Customer focus, teamwork, local connection, efficiency and sustainability - these are our 5 core corporate values that guide our daily actions and make it clear what WKT stands for. But what do these values mean in concrete terms and how are they implemented at WKT? We give you an insight into the background and shed light on the origins of our guidelines.
A central message - Seeing the future through our pipes
Our guiding principle “Seeing the future through our pipes” embodies our understanding as a reliable partner and innovative manufacturer that consistently focuses on sustainable and long-term solutions. As an employer and family business, we are deeply rooted and act responsibly - for our team, our customers and future generations. Our guiding principle combines the special product quality of WKT and our 5 core corporate values.
Customer orientation
Our focus is on the customer. We understand that every construction situation requires individual solutions. Our extensive product portfolio - from standard PE pipes for civil engineering, for which we also supply the necessary connecting elements, to versatile PVC plastic pipes that can be used as support rollers, ventilation or pressure pipes, for example, through to specialized products from our plastics workshop - enables us to offer the right solution for many challenges. Quality is a matter of course for us. From development to production, we ensure that each of our products meets the highest standards. Our aim is to build long-term partnerships based on trust and reliability through this consistent focus on quality and customer needs.
Teamwork
Our team is our greatest asset. At WKT, we live teamwork at all levels. Genuine cohesion, mutual support and a culture of appreciation characterize the way we work together. This strong sense of community is reflected in the outstanding commitment of each individual and enables us to successfully master even the most demanding challenges. But our team spirit is not just about shared motivation and commitment. Joint events, such as our summer party, table football, table tennis and darts tournaments, barbecue evenings and sporting activities are simply part of what we and our team do! - Thanks to this great community!
Local connection
Despite, or perhaps because of, our activities on national and international markets, we remain firmly connected to our roots. Sprockhövel is not only our location, but also our home. This local connection gives us stability and at the same time makes us a flexible and down-to-earth partner.
Economic efficiency
At WKT, we rely on well thought-out strategies and long-term partnerships that enable stability and growth for us and our customers, partners and suppliers. Our focus is on creating lasting added value through innovative products and efficient processes. We focus on long-term success and sustainable growth instead of short-term profits.
Sustainability
Sustainability is not a trend at WKT, but an integral part of our corporate philosophy. We act responsibly from within - ecologically, economically and socially. Our aim is to meet today's needs without endangering the resources of future generations. We continuously optimize our use of resources and, as part of the UN Global Compact, stand for responsible corporate governance and sustainability. Our durable products help to conserve resources and ensure a sustainable future.
True to our motto: Seeing the future through our pipes
Our conclusion
Our 5 corporate values: customer focus, teamwork, local connection, profitability and sustainability - are more than just words. They shape our daily actions and set the direction in which we develop. With our guiding principle “Seeing the future through our pipes”, we bundle our values and focus on sustainable solutions that last. As a partner, manufacturer and family business, we are firmly at the side of our customers, employees and partners. This is how we shape our future together, both underground and above ground - for today and for generations to come.
