Values & philosophy

Values are guidelines that guide our behaviour.
Values provide myonic with guidance for shaping a responsible corporate culture.

A “valuable” job gives meaning. It motivates and unleashes existing strengths.

Values and earning money are not opposites. Companies with values are more successful in the long term!

Values give direction to every individual. They convey a sense of belonging and lead to identification with myonic.

Guiding principle

In order to fulfil the responsibilities arising from our corporate policy, we rely on and are committed to an integrated management system (IMS), which combines all topics and areas of quality management, environmental protection, occupational health and safety and the corresponding operational contexts.

The company, its employees, service providers and suppliers are obliged to consistently comply with all relevant legal requirements, regulations and standards.

The integrated management system is designed to ensure and continuously develop the overall quality level of the company.

We review the efficiency of our measures and the achievement of our targets on a regular basis. We monitor the impact of our activities and are regularly monitored by independent third parties.

We have analysed the context of our company and defined the resulting requirements for the type and complexity of our integrated management system.

Customer orientation

 All business areas are geared towards the wishes, needs and expectations of our customers. We are always looking for optimal solutions for our global customers and their complex requirements in order to maximise our contribution to their success.

Environmentally relevant aspects are already taken into account during product development. We develop products for our customers that are largely made from materials and substances that conserve resources and can be reused or recycled.

Employee orientation

Qualified and motivated employees make a significant contribution to the company’s success. Involving employees in processes and in quality, environmental and health and safety work is an essential part of our corporate management and personnel policy.

By demanding and promoting the personal responsibility and development of each individual, we strengthen employee satisfaction, reliability and continuity. Being perceived as an attractive employer with an employee-orientated corporate culture is one of our most important long-term goals.

The entire IMS documentation is available internally to all employees on the myonic intranet, while the company policy is published on the myonic website www.myonic.com for the general public.

Occupational health and safety

Health is regarded as a valuable asset worthy of protection. Health and well-being are the basis for the performance and motivation of all employees. We ensure the necessary awareness within the company through regular training on occupational safety and active health management.

Environmental protection

The myonic group is committed to the Paris climate protection agreement to limit global warming to below 2° or 1.5°C. Measures to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions are constantly being planned and implemented with the aim of making production CO₂-neutral from 2030.

This is done taking into account the economically justifiable use of the best available technology. Life cycle analyses and product innovations help us and our customers to improve their carbon footprint. We use resources responsibly and efficiently and aim to reduce our environmental impact. This includes a holistic view of the company’s existing processes.

Procedures for avoiding or reducing environmental pollution are prioritised and procedures for emergencies are defined.
Where avoidance is not possible, the resources used should be minimised.

Supplier orientation

We expect suppliers and service providers to commit to the same values.

Social responsibility

The quality of life at our locations is extremely important to us. We therefore support groups and associations that enrich social life through various partnerships. We are therefore happy to play an active role in the positive development of our region.

Digitisation

To make our daily work more effective, we use the opportunities that technology offers us in terms of digitisation and automation.

Our goal is the paperless factory, in which monotonous, repeatable processes – in production as well as in administration – are automated.

State-of-the-art software and production technology, supplemented by robotics that replace manual labour, form the basis for this.

myonic New Work

A good working atmosphere requires focus on the employee. Therefore, we cultivate a culture of trust and fairness.

We open up spaces for new agile approaches in the modern working world and focus on flexibilisation of working hours and mobile offices.

New Work Office

Desk sharing, mobile working, work-life-balance – these are key words which are more and more evident in our daily life.  Mobile office has meanwhile become a fixed part for the employees in administration and cannot be disposed of in working life.
The progress in networking and digitalization also demands an adapted working world at myonic. Within the last year the first open-plan office was adapted to the hybrid and modern way of working within a pilot scheme. The new work office entails newly structured work places, the so-called desk sharing. Work places are no longer assigned to a certain person which also means that at any time a certain part of the employees work in mobile office as there are more employees than adequate desks.

Developing the new office with a project work
The target of the project was to design an innovative and sustainable working world on 380 m² for around 45 employees. Based on a 60 % average rate of presence, modern, attractive work places and smart working offers within a hybrid working scheme are to be created.  The project started with a feasibility study which was realized with the support of the company  Staehlin from Kempten and the management of myonic. As early as in the second phase the colleagues concerned were integrated into the planning.  Over a period of several months the experts for office planning developed the concept for the new open-plan office in close cooperation  and numerous detail discussions together with our employees. The company Uli Schuh from Ravensburg supported us in designing the work café.

Division into different work areas
The new work office consists of different areas. The largest part consists of the standard work places, which can be booked via a special software. Furthermore, there is the medium focus area which comprises most of the working places and the high focus area also called area for silent work which is situated apart from the other areas. For quick work on the laptop „touchdown places“ are available. For web conferences and intimate discussions two „cubes“ offering space for 4 people, and two  „phone boxes“ for one person each, are available. The heart of the new work office is the Work Café with its cosy lounges. This safe space shall offer space for communication and recovery. Moreover a larger meeting room was created – the so-called „project bay“. This room offers space for team and project work . However, it can also be used as a temporary work place. In planning the new work places the smallest details were taken into account, e.g. large green areas considerably increase the well-being.

New work office – more than only a modification of space
This sustainable design improves the communication among colleagues as well as interdisciplinary and among the departments. The decentralized way of working offers a possibility of leaving behind old routines, thinking of new ways of work and forms of organization and thus of being well prepared for the challenges of the future. The loss of fixed work places promotes the personal exchange and the direct flow of information between the different teams.  This offers a chance to look beyond one’s own daily work and to be inspired by the expertise, prospectives, knowledge and experience of other areas. In view of the green transformation, the almost paperless office is also one step further in reaching our goal.

Positive feedback from the departments concerned
Reactions among our employees are predominantly positive or even exclusively positive. It is much appreciated that most of the wishes and suggestions of the workshop were integrated into the office concept. The colleagues therefore feel at ease. The excellent technical equipment as well as the given flexibility and the possibility for self-organization is praized. Others appreciate the changing colleagues in the direct environment and a clean and tidy desk every morning.

myonic goes green

The topic of sustainable behaviour and climate protection is more pressing than ever before. That is why we want to give sustainability, health and social issues a platform at myonic in order to fulfil our social responsibility.

Together with our employees, we are embarking on a journey – myonic goes green.

By implementing a sustainability strategy, our aim is to make our corporate actions in terms of climate and environmental protection transparent and verifiable. We are working towards achieving carbon neutrality by 2030 with energy-efficient manufacturing processes, the use of renewable energies and production in the heart of Europe, among other things.

Greenhouse gas balance

myonic has drawn up the third greenhouse gas balance sheet for the Leutkirch and Roznov sites on the way to climate neutrality.
In 2022/23, greenhouse gas emissions were reduced by 4%. Emissions amounted to 1,272 t CO2 in AOP23, a reduction of 37 t CO2 (-4%) compared to the previous year. This corresponds to around 2.3 t CO2 equivalents per employee (previous year: 2.4 t CO2).

Heating the buildings with heating oil due to the energy crisis from October 2022 to the end of March 2023 led to a slight deterioration compared to the previous year due to the higher emission factor of heating oil compared to gas. The use of gas would have led to a further reduction of 72 tons of CO2, bringing total emissions down to 1,200 tons of CO2.

However, CO2 emissions from the purchase of electricity have decreased. myonic Leutkirch has been purchasing electricity from 100% hydropower since April 1, 2022, and since January 1, 2023, 50% of the electricity required for myonic Roznov in the Czech Republic has come from renewable energies.

Employee mobility is one of the biggest challenges. To reduce this, various projects are being launched together with employees.

In order to meet the commitments of the “Climate-neutral Allgäu 2030” alliance, around 11% of greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced each year in order to be climate-neutral by 2030. For the last financial year, this means that 285 tons of CO2 must be offset by purchasing Gold Standard certificates to support climate projects.

myonic is again supporting last year’s sponsored project “Clean Water in Zimbabwe”, which manages well boreholes, provides training and monitors water quality to give the population access to clean drinking water. In addition, 40% of the compensation payment goes to environmental protection projects in the region that promote awareness of biodiversity, species diversity, environmental and climate protection and appreciation of regional foods.

Greenhouse gas balance and CO2 compensation

myonic has set itself the goal to be climate neutral by the year 2030. As a member of the alliance “Climate Neutral Allgäu 2030”, we are obliged to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by approx. 11% annually in order to achieve climate neutrality. For this purpose we take numerous measures to reduce avoidable emissions. CO2 emissions that cannot be avoided are compensated by the purchase of green certificates according to the gold standard, which support climate protection projects.

myonic decided to support the “Clean Water in Zimbabwe” project in the last fiscal year.  By this project, well boreholes are built, managed and maintained;  training is provided and water quality is tested. This gives the population access to clean drinking water, eliminating the need to boil water with firewood, thus saving CO2 and preventing diseases through germ-free water.

In addition, 40% of the compensation payment goes to environmental protection projects in the region, with the aim of raising awareness of biodiversity, species diversity, environmental and climate protection, and appreciation for regional food. These include, for example:

– Pfrontener Bienenstadel – educational apiary and beekeeping workshop (Pfronten Beekeepers’  Association)

– E-Foodsharing (Foodsharing Kempten e.V.)

– Flowering meadow for more insect protection and biodiversity (Fachoberschule Sonthofen)

– Bike rental pool & mountain bike upcycling project (youth education center Bad Hindelang)

– Small hydroelectric power plant (Friends of Nature House Sonthofen)

– Climate cookbook (Hildegardis Gymnasium)
