Our culture & values

We want to create a culture where business areas and companies cooperate and work well together. We want to build strong teams based on mutual respect. We are companies that care.

Our products are part of millions of people’s decoration journeys, and make painting easier, faster and more ergonomic. Our products mean something to different people in different situations, but they all have one thing in common: our users choose our products again and again, because they like and trust our brands, and because they trust us.

In the same way, we want people to trust that we are an employer that gives our employees the opportunity to grow – we want all our employees to be proud to be part of Orkla.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Orkla House Care’s mission is to build a house that cares, where diversity, equity and inclusion are the foundation of how we support and value our employees and eliminating unlawful discrimination.

A HOME WITH A UNIQUELY BLENDED FINISH

Our products apply colour, add texture, create distinctiveness, and give protection to all types of surfaces in our home and communities. We want our workplace to replicate this by being a broad and welcoming canvas where everyone can flourish. We wont brush over what makes you unique and we won`t cover up the differences that help us improve together.

A House That Cares

In our house – a house that cares – diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just words; they are the foundation of who we are and how we work. Just as a house is built with a variety of materials that come together to create something strong and enduring, our organization thrives on bringing together people with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We believe that our differences are not obstacles but strengths that drive innovation, creativity, and growth.

In our House everyone belongs. We value the unique qualities of every individual (Diversity), equity is essential for a fair and sustainable workplace (Equity) and we want to create an environment where everyone feels welcome (Inclusion).
