Commitment beyond the boundaries of company

Entrepreneurial action means future-oriented action. As a family business, the Würth Group as well as the management of Würth Industrie Service has been committed to this principle ever since its early years. We are involved in all sorts of corporate initiatives, support charitable organizations, and promote numerous projects in the fields of arts and culture, research and science as well as education.

Experience arts and culture up close and personal

Würth Industri Norge focuses on creative potential. Potential is just as important for guaranteeing unique works in the field of arts as it is for pioneering innovations in a successful company. Because the progress starts, where the creativity can thrive. As a company which operates globally and acts responsibly, it goes without saying that we act upon this conviction. Therefore, we work together with artists involved in arts and culture based on long-term partnerships and promote cultural education programmes in the company and outside. We thus contribute to enriching lives of as many people as possible – employees as well as the residents of Main-Tauber valley – by promoting artistic ideas.

Focus on people

In the world in which people and cultures are progressively connected and thus presented with new social challenges, it is extremely important that companies identify and assume their social responsibility. Social commitment is therefore an integral part of Würth Industri Norge. A solid education for children and youths is an important requirement for a healthy society and also for a sustainable economy. For this purpose, we actively focus on improving these circumstances particularly in our region. We support innovative projects to promote education, highlight educational opportunities and are leading sponsors of different schools with strong partners.

 

Project groups

Support trainees

Consciously assume responsibility and show commitment outside everyday work. The concept of inclusion also plays an important role in the training phase of our trainees. We have the opportunity to actively involve people with physical and intellectual disability as well as refugees with the help of our project groups “Social learning” and "WIS for Refugees”. Regular events aim to overcome prejudices, connect with people and bring together different cultures.

It involves promoting their actual talents and interests, critically questioning conventional clichés of roles, giving insights about variety of training options and jobs. With Girl’s Day, Würth Industri Norge fulfils this task.

This is totally independent of origin, religion, profession and educational background. Every student should be able to play his part in the society with his skills.

Sport combines

Sport combines performance, excitement, emotions and passion – dimensions which are comprehensible across languages and cultures. No matter how old, how strong, from where you are, whether you are with or without disability: sport makes you strong and creates communion. It enables people with disabilities to participate equally in cultural and sporty life. Therefore, the promotion of sports in all its facets has always been a matter very close to the heart for Würth Industri Norge. The company promotes competitive and recreational sports, especially football, in the vicinity of its locations. Sport contributes to strengthening team spirit and imparting essential skills such as self-confidence and sportsmanship – qualities, which are also important in later professional life.
