At Tembo, it's our mission to contribute to a better world by creating manufacturing solutions for sustainable alternatives. As a family business with 1,200 employees across the globe, we believe in our responsibility to our people, our planet, and the customers we serve. By helping our customers to produce sustainable alternatives, we can enhance lives and leave ahead a better future. And this is more urgent than ever before, because the world changes fast, forcing global brands to adapt their product portfolio to meet consumer needs and new legislation on sustainability. At Tembo, we are very familiar with pioneering and adapting to change: Since 1912, time has taught us many valuable lessons; lessons on winning, losing and anticipating. Over the years, our company has always been able to prepare for the rapid change ahead, managing the challenge of “the unknown”. As innovation is in our DNA, we have developed our cross-over philosophy to develop next generation products. Besides that, our product and machine development go hand-in-hand. With this unique approach we deliver future-proof manufacturing technology, a deep understanding of products and materials and ownership of production output. This provides our customers a faster time to market and gain a competitive advantage. On a global scale, our companies provide services and technologies including high-end manufacturing solutions and maintenance to a growing range of markets. Therefore we want to be a trustworthy innovation partner. A partner that is ahead in technology, has a deep understanding of customers needs, knows their products and materials, providing an effective global presence and has a clear focus on sustainability.
