Our purpose: what drives us at Viega.
Installing lifelines for the buildings of tomorrow.
As innovation drivers in the installation industry, we see it as our duty to improve people's lives. Our employees think in terms of solutions rather than products. They are responsible for shaping our future. We work to preserve and improve drinking water hygiene, energy efficiency, comfort and safety in buildings, holding ourselves accountable to strict sustainability standards and using pioneering methods in all we do. With our intelligent systems, we are installing the lifelines for the buildings of tomorrow.
We turn spaces into living rooms.
For most people, Viega products will always remain invisible – but even though they operate in the background, they are essential to all of us. The pipes and systems tucked away behind walls are the lifelines of our buildings, providing us all with everything we need to live and work – whether that's heat, safety or clean drinking water. They turn spaces into living rooms. This has been, and will always be, our responsibility to society – ever since our family company was founded 125 years ago.
Responsibility
Our mission is to make people's lives better. We view our solutions not just as part of the technical fabric of a building, but as essential lifelines in the buildings of tomorrow. Viega turns spaces into living rooms, providing people with everything they need for life.
Our intelligent drinking water management systems and innovative ideas help to reduce water and energy consumption. Our products are designed for a long service life, making them even more sustainable. This approach makes a significant contribution towards achieving our climate objectives. Our commitment has been recognised by the "50 Sustainability & Climate Leaders" initiative.
But we want to do even more. As a family company and the global market leader in our sector, we want to fulfil our responsibility to society. But we also want to drive innovation and take on an even bigger challenge: the sustainable development of building technology. Our goal is to lay the foundations that will be essential to future generations.
In all of our work, we think about the digital future and everything that comes with it. Considering and evaluating all of these aspects is the only way to tackle the challenges of our ever-evolving world. And it's the only way we can rise to the challenge we've set for ourselves: installing the lifelines for the buildings of tomorrow. Drinking water management is not only essential to our health, but also to the health of our planet.
Innovation
Our research community – open, collaborative, connected
Climate change is presenting new challenges for politicians and the wider economy. To tackle these challenges, we must all plan and do business with sustainability in mind. This is why we work closely with research institutes and universities, start-ups and other partners. In our research community, over 300 specialists are currently collaborating on interdisciplinary research. Digitalisation is increasingly playing a role in their work. We think and act globally so that we can benefit from economies of scale with our core technologies.
Generating new ideas by asking questions and listening
Viega's numerous first-filed patents underpin our position as a global innovation leader. Every day, we work to expand our knowledge and build on our skills, and we're always on the lookout for experts in construction, development, digitalisation and many other areas to join us on our journey. We want to make our systems even more user-friendly and sustainable, and we always welcome new ideas. In our innovation garages, we experiment with and explore new ideas, involving our customers in the process as needed. Our customers are important partners in the development of the systems and products of the future.
