Our mission
The Frénéhard & Michaux mission consists of unifying the group’s companies and brands around four essential areas:
Our values
We have five values, in action like the five fingers on a hand. Our values are activities, expressed logically by verbs: listen, commit, innovate, protect and rise.
Listen
At FRENEHARD & MICHAUX, we take the time to listen to our customers, to understand their expectations so that we can design tomorrow’s products and services for them.
This sincere and constant focus in-house by our employees and colleagues is the foundation for a solid team and successful work.
Commit
At FRENEHARD & MICHAUX, we advocate a culture of initiative and empowerment. Assuming the commitments made, both between employees and with customers and partners, is a fundamental sign of respect and a guarantee of credibility.
Innovate
We work together with our customers and partners at FRENEHARD & MICHAUX to improve our products and processes constantly. We encourage initiative, we question ourselves individually and as a group to develop new ideas and thus put innovation at the heart of our identity.
Protect
Height and safety are closely linked at FRENEHARD & MICHAUX. We give absolute priority to the health and safety of our employees. The quality of our products and the total control of our processes contribute to the safety of our customers and the permanence of their installations.
Rise
We believe in our employees at FRENEHARD & MICHAUX. Encouraging personal development, expanding skills and promoting team work are all part of our culture. We are proud of what we do and we value the men and women who foster our brands, our image and our factories.
QUALITY, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACHES
The group’s Quality, Safety and Environment approach is in line with the ISO 9001, ISO 45001 and ISO 14001 standards and is based on the continuous improvement of each company’s processes.
Quality
All our factories are ISO 9001 certified, which attests to the conformity and effectiveness of our customer management system in meeting the regulatory and normative requirements regarding our products and our organization. This certification meets our desire for transparency towards our customers and partners. It desmonstrates to the conscientious work of all our employees who are involved every day and is a guarantee of safety for our users.
Safety
Managing the safety of our employees in our companies is a priority and part of our DNA. How could we care about the safety of the users of our products if we didn’t care about the safety and health of our employees at work?
To go further, and to make our companies part of a more sustainable world, respectful of its environment and contributing to the reduction of GHG, we are working on a CSR program. In doing so, we have obtained the EcoVadis Silver Award in 2022.
Environment
The Frénéhard & Michaux business sectors are concerned by the challenges of green growth. We mainly use steel and aluminum, materials that can be recycled ad infinitum. The various companies in the group strive every day to limit the environmental impact of their activities by improving waste management, recycling actions and by working on the reduction of the energy consumption of our plants.
