The Marantec Group is a collaborative, courageous, and visionary initiator. Our ambition is to shape the future by using our art of engineering – engineering of things. We consistently implement our guiding motto A new way to get there #together in the following four areas:
New understanding of technology
We don't use engineering to "improve" products for the sake of technology and to keep adding new features; instead, we focus on the needs of our customers. For them, we develop easy-to-use, sustainable solutions. We are committed to the open innovation approach and open up beyond our corporate scope to increase our innovation capabilities.
New understanding to create values
In our opinion, product heroes have had their day; it's all about holistic business models. We think in ecosystems and are guided by the principles of the platform economy and the circular economy. We have a clear ambition to design the best business models in the field of drive systems in harmony with nature. In doing so, we always think beyond our existing core markets.
The Marantec Group uses digital manuals as part of its sustainability strategy to minimize its carbon footprint and save paper resources. Instead of printed instructions in packaging, they are now made available online. Printing on demand will remain. A DIN A4 sheet with safety instructions replaces the previous instructions. The Marantec Group expects to save about eight million printed pages annually, which is equivalent to over 50 tons of CO2 and saves about 70 mature trees per year. In addition, printing costs are reduced and labor is minimized.
New understanding of competition
Cooperations create value. We see the ability to initiate successful cooperations as a decisive competitive advantage. For us, the focus is on openness, honesty, and transparency. We strive for cooperations from which all partners benefit. Instead of being competitive, we push the boundaries of competition. Only in this way will we continue to be successful in the global market.
New understanding of collaboration
The best results come from the wisdom of the many. This requires working at the same level. We rethink organizations, focusing on talents and roles instead of traditional hierarchies. Core principles for implementing this way of working are purpose, modern governance structures, and digitalization. Our focus is on active people who act on their own responsibility.
That's why we are the coolest operator manufacturer!
