ABOUT US
The Nolato Spirit
Nolato has a long tradition of responsible business conduct. Being a good employer and a good corporate citizen, taking responsibility for what we do and always applying sound business ethics are part of our company's spirit. We believe that a future-oriented, responsible approach is not only necessary from a sustainability point of view, but also creates opportunities and business benefits. Especially when combined with our strong focus on efficiency and professionalism.
This Nolato Spirit brings together our core business principles and values in terms of business mission, vision, how we achieve that vision and our Basic Principles. It also contains our expanded code of conduct, which provides ethical guidance on everything we do and which should always be followed by all Nolato personnel.
OUR VISION
Nolato aims to be the customer’s first choice of innovative partner in sustainable design and production.
Being the customer’s first choice means being repeatedly chosen as a partner for a customer’s most important projects. Nolato should be viewed as a reliable partner that combines expertise and experience with an innovative approach, takes responsibility and actively contributes to sustainable development, and puts the customer’s specific needs front and center.
The key factors in achieving our vision
Long-term customer relationships
Long-term, close cooperation is the objective for all Nolato’s customer relationships. In-depth understanding and knowledge of customer processes and needs,
combined with continuity that creates experience, help generate key value.

High productivity
High productivity and a continual focus on costs are key elements of our business. Lean manufacturing maximizes business benefits for both Nolato and its customers, while it also helps to streamline processes, optimize use of resources, cut lead times, and develop innovative and sustainable solutions.
Broad customer offering
Customers are increasingly prioritizing suppliers with the global resources and expertise to be involved from concept to delivery. That’s why Nolato’s global
organization and broad customer offering comprises everything from concept development, product design, procurement of products and services, and process optimization to high-volume production, post-processing, assembly and logistics. And there is an emphasis on sustainable development throughout all stages of the process.

Responsible business
We have strong core values based on the view that responsible, efficient and profitable business operations must be ethical and sustainable. Areas relating to ethics, social responsibility, the environment, and health and safety are therefore an integral part of our business and key to defining Nolato’s corporate culture.
Expertise
Our customers constantly challenge us with new requests and tougher requirements. We enhance our customer offering by continually raising employees’ skill levels and investing in cutting-edge technologies and acquisitions. Synergies between business areas increase value for Nolato customers and are achieved through a ‘One Nolato’ approach.
Sustainable procurement
Nolato’s supply chain is an extension of Nolato’s network and capabilities. Our strategic suppliers should strive to have a positive impact on people, society and business value, minimize their impact on the environment, and comply with Nolato’s Code of Conduct, as well as supporting other Nolato initiatives.
Local yet global presence
Proximity to customers and their markets is crucial. It’s about achieving the most efficient logistics possible, along with short lines of command and the ability to make quick decisions, close to our customers.
Solid finances
A strong financial position provides us with firm foundations and is essential for our business. Ensuring solid finances also makes Nolato a reliable supplier and partner for the long term over multiple business cycles.
Our Basic Principles
Nolato's Basic Principles have been developed over a long period of time and provide a platform of common values for all Nolato Group operations.
