ABOUT GEBERIT

The globally operating Geberit Group is a European leader in sanitary products. We operate with a strong local presence in most European countries, providing unique added value for sanitary technology and bathroom ceramics.

The production network encompasses 26 production facilities, four located overseas. The Group is headquartered in Rapperswil-Jona, Switzerland. With around 12,000 employees in approximately 50 countries, Geberit generated net sales of CHF 3.4 billion in 2022. The Geberit shares are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and have been included in the SMI (Swiss Market Index) since 2012.

The Geberit Group’s success is based on several success factors. These include a clear and long-term strategy.

1. Focus on sanitary products: Geberit concentrates on installation and flushing systems for sanitary facilities, piping systems for transporting water in buildings, and bathroom systems. In these areas, Geberit has comprehensive know-how and supplies high-quality, integrated, water-saving sanitary technology and attractive design.

2. Commitment to innovation and design: Continuously optimising and extending the product range is crucial for future success. Innovative strength is founded on research in hydraulics, acoustics, statics, fire protection and hygiene, and process and materials technology. The insights gained are systematically applied in the development of products for the benefit of customers. The focus here – where appropriate – is on the combination of design and functionality.

3. Selective geographic expansion: An essential factor in long-term success is stronger growth in markets where Geberit products or technology are still under-represented. Outside Europe, Geberit concentrates on the most promising markets. These include North America, China, South East Asia, Australia, the Gulf Region, South Africa and India. Except for North America and Australia, the company mainly engages in project business in these markets. The company always adheres strictly to the existing high standards regarding quality and profitability.

4. Continuous optimisation of business processes: Efficient processes will help establish a leading and competitive cost structure in the long term. Process optimisation will be partly achieved through Group-wide projects and partly through employees identifying improvement potential in their day-to-day work, thus significantly contributing toward positive development.
