We@BRITA Switzerland

"Welcome to Neudorf Lucerne"

We have around 80 employees and have been active in the canton of Lucerne for over 35 years. We are part of the internationally active BRITA Group with headquarter in Taunusstein, Germany. Our passion is to make a significant contribution to reducing the CO2 footprint.

"We will change the way people drink water sustainably"

We at BRITA are…

A family company 
In 1966, Heinz Hankammer laid the foundations for the company of today – BRITA – with hand-made filter cartridges that he produced in his garden. Since those early days we have become an innovative market leader in the field of improved drinking water. Under the leadership of Markus Hankammer, a second-generation family member, we have gone from strength to strength. As a family-owned company, we understand that energy, professionalism, commitment, and creativity are valuable human qualities that cannot simply be exhausted.

Expert in water optimization and individualization "
“Everyone should have the greatest possible drinking water experience – according to their own individual needs.” Whether from a carafe or directly from the tap, at your favorite café around the corner, whether simply filtered or cooled and sparkling – BRITA makes it possible for everyone to create their ideal type of water in various ways.

Talent Developer
At BRITA, we place great emphasis on education and training because our employees are our most valuable resource. We support you and offer modern and effective development opportunities. It is important for us to realize your full potential and to prepare talents from our own ranks for leadership positions. With our international leadership development program called BOLD ("BRITA Opportunities for Leadership Development"), we offer targeted support to young employees who have demonstrated outstanding performance and a high level of commitment, qualifying them for future leadership roles. And it's a great success since more than 60% of our executives come from within our own ranks.

Passionately Sustainable
Sustainability is more important than ever today. The climate is changing, the oceans are filled with waste, and entire animal species are facing extinction. At BRITA, we take responsibility for our actions and the environment. We are actively engaged in environmental protection. We have our own recycling program for our products in order to process the raw materials used and to reintroduce them into the production cycle.  With projects like "Balance the impact," we strive to reduce our company-wide CO2 emissions, such as through the use of renewable energy at various locations. At our headquarters in Taunusstein, we even have 300,000 little helpers on board – bees! These little insects do a massive amount to help the environment.

 

You can create more awareness for less waste as a member of the BRITA family

The environment is close to our hearts. That's why we are committed to greater sustainability in our own business. We offer a recycling program for our filter cartridges and are constantly working on ways to further reduce our CO2 emissions by making our processes - from manufacturing through to transportation - more efficient. We also avoid waste throughout the product life cycle, for example by using LED lighting and reducing outer packaging.

 

 

We all live these values in our daily work and see them as part of our corporate culture. Because we know they will be a decisive factor in our success.
