About Etex
Our three-pillar agenda
PPThe world’s structural landscape is
changing shape to meet societies’ demands
for digitally driven, sustainable and socially
responsible solutions.
Our three-pillar
agenda
Our promise is to do more than simply produce and sell
building materials. We endeavour to provide innovative, smart,
sustainable and accessible products that are aesthetically and
technically superior. This is how we can inspire ways of living and
contribute to building a better, safer and more sustainable world.
Adapting to a rapidly
changing world
Our world is going through rapid and disruptive changes that
challenge the slow nature of the construction industry: increased
urbanisation, digitisation, greater need for sustainable materials
and a growing sense of shared global responsibility.
To seize upon these changes as opportunities and galvanise our
business in smart and sustainable ways, we rely on our three-pillar
agenda. This provides clear targets to ensure that we effectively
adapt to the changing world.
Profitable growth: be intimate with the marketplace and our
customers, innovating according to their needs to drive success.
Operational excellence: foster a culture of continuous
improvement, enhance our ways of working and pledge to keep
safety top of mind in everything we do.
Engaged people: enable employees to strengthen and develop
their expertise and create inspiring leaders to help drive
engagement.
To reach that level of performance, we look to our values: Passion
for Excellence, Connect and Care and Pioneer to Lead. Our values
and their associated behaviours enable our employees to align
with our three-pillar agenda to achieve success.
