CSR | Kinedo

"We offer solutions that are inventive, reliable and easy."

A word from the management

"For over 60 years, the SFA Group companies have been committed to enhancing the daily comfort of our customers, both professional and non-professional. We give them a lot more than just technical know-how: we offer them solutions, solutions that are inventive, reliable and easy to put in place.

This is our hallmark!

A way of thinking which resulted in 1958 in the release of the first Sanibroyeur. An idea that revolutionized interior installation all over the world. Through our 25 subsidiaries and more than 60 distributors, our Group is now present in nearly 80 countries.

At the same time, our company is committed to diversifying its historic business.

Several acquisitions have enriched our brand portfolio: Europelec, Kinedo, Grandform, Watermatic, Zehnder Pumpen and more recently Format. They have enabled us to successfully penetrate new markets.

SFA has reached the size of a global group, powerful and recognized in its markets.

A brand that, since its creation, has carried values, a commitment and an inspiring personality that are a unifying base for all of us, employees, customers and partners. This global approach to corporate social responsibility of our company deserves to be displayed today, not only as a commitment but as a reality maintained on a daily basis.

Welcome to SFA!"

CSR in the SFA Group

Our Approach

As an international industrial group our primary purpose is simple: to design and manufacture home and professional solutions wherever water flows.

In 2016, SFA’s management decided that it was now imperative to engage the company in a Corporate Social Responsibility approach to meet new communication, human resources, and regulatory compliance challenges.

SFA’s commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR) reflects our aims to pursue Sustainable and Responsible growth of our activities and to meet Social and Environmental challenges by continuing to provide our customers with inventive solutions to meet their expectations.

Our inventive approach to product solutions and brand creation begins and ends with quality and services.

SFA’s product solutions have been widely recognized within our industry and beyond as best practice.

On important environmental issues like using eco-responsible reflexes right from the design stage and reducing waste, we push ourselves not only to improve our own performance, but also to raise the bar for others, including our suppliers.

In supporting our employees and partnering with suppliers to deliver quality products to our customers, we hold ourselves to high standards of ethics and integrity. Collaboration and inclusivity are central to how we work. We believe the best solutions are those that draw on diverse ideas and perspectives.

We aim to enrich the lives and communities we touch. SFA has a long history of helping people worldwide in sanitary matters.

Every year, for the world toilet day, where it is all about inspiring action to tackle the global sanitation crisis and help achieve Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6), we support through product donations. These help children and adults receive much needed health facilities.
