Our Values
The Knauf Group Values are the core of our culture. They define who we are and how we work. We have captured the essence of what it means to be a part of Knauf in four words.

Act with social responsibility
Menschlichkeit
Menschlichkeit translates as ‘humanity’ in English.
We see our colleagues, our business partners and our stakeholders as part of a big family where traditional principles of integrity and humanity still count.
By treating each other fairly and by embracing diversity, together we act with social responsibility. We take care of each other, of society and of the environment.
Act as one team
Partnership
We work in partnership by creating an environment of mutual trust.
This means that we are encouraged to take on individual responsibilities and make decisions, because we trust each other’s judgement.
We are one team and we support each other and all the members of the Knauf community.
Go the extra mile
Commitment
We are committed to our work, our colleagues and our community. Taking pride and pleasure in what we do comes naturally to us.
We always go the extra mile, achieve sustainable results and provide our customers with high quality solutions.
Knauf offers real opportunities for personal growth and development, helping to create a successful team.
Drive change and innovation
Entrepreneurship
Through an entrepreneurial leadership style and a willingness to take risks, we have successfully grown from a small family company into a family-owned, globally active organisation.
Our continued success is driven by a spirit of pioneering, innovation and change combined with a pragmatic and results-oriented approach.
