Start page About Häfele Philosophy
"Essentially, our guiding principle formulates our entrepreneurial drive to make the living and working spaces of our time more functional, more atmospheric, more efficient and generally more valuable in the future.
We want to realise this together with our customers and suppliers, because in a complex world, it's all about combining strengths and overcoming challenges together."
Gregor Riekena, Chairman of the Management Board
We asked ourselves, what sense does our company make? For the customers? And perhaps even for the world? And above all, what motivates Häfele colleagues around the world to devote their energy, passion and creativity to our company every day - beyond the material aspect?
Our Häfele leitmotif emerged from these thoughts in an extensive and broad-based international discussion process. With an intensive look at the company's development over the last hundred years. Because a credible leitmotif can only come from within. As a condensation of a long lifeline that can also be a guideline for the future.
The Häfele leitmotif is our compass. And the condensation of a long lifeline from which a guideline for the future was created.
In our company history, we have consistently moved from the furniture to the door to the room.
The four dimensions of our leitmotif
Häfele is committed to developing liveable, sustainable room concepts for the living and working environments of tomorrow. Together with its partners, Häfele creates resource-saving, multifunctional solutions with maximum comfort.
Functional
Creating functionality is one of our core competences. But our goals go beyond that. We are concerned with greater convenience for users and operators - flexibility and multifunctionality, reliability, quality and durability, making ideas possible and providing impetus and inspiration for our customers.
Atmospheric
When we move around in rooms, there is an emotional side alongside the technical and functional side. It's about well-being and orientation. We think far beyond furniture and associate it with Häfele Lighting is the first and so far only brand to combine "light in furniture" and "light in rooms" into an integrated and networked overall concept.
Intelligent
Buildings and rooms are becoming smart. And so is our range. Since our entry into the world of electronics with Dialock , we have gradually expanded this field. With our digital systems, components in the room can be conveniently controlled and networked with other smart systems. We are an innovative player in the digital world.
Organised
We not only take care of products and solutions, but also of our customer`s processes. Be it the production of furniture or project development in the property. We help our customers to realise their goals more easily, quickly, safely and efficiently, e.g. trough our Planning & consulting tools .
