Values and Principles

A Company Built on Values

The essence of Freudenberg's approach in the marketplace and within the company can be summed up in a few simple words: customer focus, long-term orientation, and trust.

These are only some of Freudenberg values that shape the company’s relationships with employees, customers, business partners, neighbors and the environment. While they date back to the origins of the company in 1849, they still characterize our business interactions today. Founder Carl Johann Freudenberg viewed them as the key to the company's success.
