Corporate and social responsibility

With clear communication and excellent services, Locken builds trust with its customers and works with them to identify the best-fit solutions for their requirements.
At Locken, we continue to uphold the entrepreneurial spirit and values that have guided the company since day one. We have joined an international Group, but our high standards remain intact. Our traditional values include honesty, humility, empathy, individual and group responsibility and quality commitments. Innovation, development, creativity and a service mindset inspire us daily.
We encourage individual and group development in the company and seek to lead our industry and maintain our reputation as a trendsetter.
We have been awarded ISO 9001:2008 certification in acknowledgement of the company’s strategy since its beginnings in 2003. Certification is evidence of Locken’s commitment to superior service, reflecting the quality of its solution and endorsing the company’s expertise with a recognised label.
We champion the Iseo Group’s values and all employees work in line with the Group’s Code of Ethics.

Goals that we pursue in our immediate area include:

• Community development through employment opportunities, wage and tax payments, talent development and wealth production.
• Environmental protection through a reduction in pollution, waste and the consumption of natural resources, especially energy.
• Partnerships with humanitarian and social action projects.
• An active contribution to national and international associations and trade unions in a spirit of shared social responsibility.
