The Umicore Way
Download brochure (PDF - 486Kb)
Following the acquisition and integration of the Precious Metals Group, Umicore gained a new dimension and became a different company.
It was therefore appropriate to review our mission statement and to check its continued relevance in a changed context. Following a thorough examination, the senior management of the combined Group reaffirmed the core values and the basic mission of Umicore. However, on this occasion, it was decided to replace our previous mission statement and environmental charter by a more comprehensive document, explaining not only the vision which drives us and the values which we seek to promote, but also containing principles applicable to the conduct of our business around the world and to the relationships with our key stakeholders.
This document therefore sets out our mission, as well as the basic philosophy which should guide us in the pursuit of our common ambition to build an even more successful, valuable and respected company.
