Good governance by acting profitably

The company has directed its investments in those things that support the success of Lumon and its employees, as well as the strategies of the future keeping sustainability in one of its main focus areas. As an international employer, our tax footprint is extensive, and we always take care of fulfilling our societal responsibilities.

As a trailblazer in the industry, Lumon has an impact on building science norms and requirements to develop a more sustainable future in construction
In Finnish construction, balcony glazing is a standard product, but in Europe and North America, the product is relatively new. Bringing a Finnish product to the international market means there is a constant need for development and testing, so that the product can meet the product standards for each country.
As a representative of the glazing industry, we are to influence international construction codes for our product to be recognized. These include, for example, the EN/CEN -standardizations in Europe, and the CCMC -standardizations in North America.
In participating in these communities, we can predict future trends and standards, which will inevitably influence our operations. Standardization changes are extensive processes, which require patience and long-term focus. By being an influencer in the field, we can also have an impact on sustainable thinking, so that the benefit of balcony glazing in relation to the lifetime of buildings is understood internationally.
One of the values of our family business is keeping our promises. Trust and longevity in our operations is a result of the diligent following of societal standards and requirements.
