Our Values
Contributing to Society
The challenge to protect the basis of life for mankind and nature is our most important issue. Our technology is aimed at customer needs, serving the well-being of people and the environment.
Excellence in Science
It is our desire and attitude to respond to customers' requirements by offering superior, world-class technologies. The basis of our success lies in our enthusiastic and motivated employees who, in close corporation with our customers, design and realize individual solutions.
Best for our Customers
With our customer-oriented strategy and our high-quality service, we strive to be Europe's market-leader. Therefore, we think that innovation goes hand in hand with comprehensive service packages and holistic applications, as reflected in Shimadzu's consulting and application solutions.
Social Engagement
Investing in our Communities and Environment
We believe that we as a company can help making our society better - not only through our services and products. Taking part in multiple social programs aimed at serving our community is something we take great joy in.
For example, our employees can use one work day once a year to partake in our Social Day, helping out in different local projects every year. For example, we helped to plant new flowers in the Duisburger Kant Park.
Other projects include a yearly wishing tree in our European Headquarter in Duisburg to collect presents for children to christmas or the funding of bees colonies.
Investing in the next Generation
We also believe that it is our duty to support the youth as well as possible. With the LAB4YOU program, young professionals can team up with us to use our laboratory to work on their research.
We are also a proud partner of the UDE-Scholarship program which awards high achieving students from the University Duisburg-Essen every year. Furthermore, we are looking forward to participating in the Girls' Day every year to give young girls a chance to explore their interest in natural sciences with us.
