SCHEIDT Corporate policy

The company Scheidt GmbH & Co. KG is an owner-managed family business. The company was founded in 1889 by Wilhelm Scheidt in Herford and was a typical construction company at the time. Scheidt sees itself as an organism and pays equal attention to the following areas in terms of holistic corporate management:

Sustainability - Code of Conduct

Compliance with certain standards of responsible corporate governance, such as sustainability, human rights, working conditions and the environment throughout the entire value chain of our product, is of the utmost importance to us. We have therefore summarised these standards in a binding code of conduct that applies to us, our employees and all our suppliers.

Customer-orientation

The company's top priority is always to inspire customers and all business areas are geared towards this goal. It is therefore a matter of course that the Scheidt Group employees meet the customer right from the start and support them throughout the entire project with a great deal of commitment and the ability to solve even complex requirements innovatively.

Quality management

We maintain a quality management system with the aim of optimising our customer focus. It goes without saying that we are committed to continuously improving our management system and fulfilling the applicable management system requirements.

Employee orientation

One of Scheidt's most decisive success factors is its employees. It is therefore a key objective of our human resources policy to promote employees in their areas and thus prepare them for responsible tasks that lead to both personal and company success.

Principle of equality between women and men

The company promotes equality between women and men, including in technical professions.

Occupational safety

To protect our employees and ensure a safe working environment, Scheidt has introduced an occupational health and safety system. This system is authorised to bear the "Systematic Safety" seal of approval. Constant monitoring and further development of the system are a matter of course.

Environmental protection

The aim of our environmental management system is to use resources as sparingly as possible and to minimise environmental pollution, such as dust and noise, by continuously improving our environmental performance. We are committed to complying with all relevant environmental regulations.

Merging systems

An integrated management system allows us to utilise potential even better and design processes efficiently. We are committed to continuously developing our management system.

Continuous improvement

From the very beginning, the company's policy has included constant adaptation to changing markets. The company is always on the lookout for gaps in the market and submarkets in which it can emphasise its own strengths and capabilities.
Our management system is designed to constantly improve our processes and make them more efficient in order to secure the continued existence of the company and jobs.

Integration of suppliers

Long-term partnerships with suppliers that are mutually beneficial are the goal. Thanks to these very well-developed partnerships, the joint pursuit of innovation, quality and cost-effectiveness is a matter of course and has always led to success. Functioning supplier management is a "must", especially when it comes to meeting customer requirements.
