Our mission
We inspire sheet metal processors with excellent solutions for leveling and deburring sheet metal & heavy plate. We offer first-class customer service and contribute to the careful use of resources.
Our guiding principles.
The first version of our guiding principles were developed in 1991 at our management conference. Over the years, it has described the culture within our evolving company with only minor adaptations. It is very important to us that ARKU's unique culture is kept alive yet is continuously scrutinized. Take us by our word!
1. We are ...
... a globally active, mid-sized, family-owned company with a value system developed over the course of generations. We know that we can only remain successful over the long term if we constantly reaffirm our position in the market through our uniqueness. We never forget that successful companies are the backbone of a functioning society.
2. We focus on ...
