This simplifies the everyday life of industrial customers and at the same time contributes to safer and more sustainable operations and increased profitability for the customer.

In order to continue to exceed the long-term internal profitability target of EBITA/WC>45 per cent and to realise the our mission, vision and business concept, all businesses must be able to offer their customers the best possible total economy (lowest total cost) through their solutions, using deep customer insight and good accessibility, high quality products and services and high competence (customer value advantage).
In order to offer this to customers and at the same time be profitable themselves, businesses need to work as efficiently and cost-consciously as possible, and to continuously grow their skills and experience to work more efficiently than their competitors (cost advantage).
