We protect your health – responsibility in family hands

Dr. Schumacher thrives thanks to its people and our shared goal of making disinfection and hygiene easy and applicable everywhere with innovative products. In collaboration with our business partners, we work daily to act according to the values that our company founder, Dr. Henning Schumacher, espoused over 40 years ago. We place the health of our fellow man at the center of everything we do. "Our mission, our vision, and our values are far more than words – they form the foundation for our daily actions. They give us direction, provide orientation, and connect us across all divisions and locations.

Mission

Our customers and consumers can always rely on a supply of high-quality, innovative and effective cleaning, cosmetic, hygiene, and disinfection products.

As a family business, long-term, sustainable action forms the foundation of our business. We place great importance on the efficient use of raw materials and resources in all aspects of our business.

That's why, through our entrepreneurial actions and goal-oriented management, we prioritize our most important asset: our employees.

Vision

As an industry leader in disinfection and hygiene, and the largest wet wipes manufacturer in the EU, we continually set new standards with our pioneering spirit, leading the way on innovation.


We bring together the most talented minds, leveraging our knowledge to quickly meet the dynamic needs of our customers and users with product solutions that enhance their health and well-being.

Dr. Schumacher is, and will remain, a 100% family-owned company.

Values

For us, values aren't just empty phrases, but the way we conduct ourselves. They shape how we interact with one another, our decisions, and our relationship to customers, partners, and challenges.

They provide guidance in our daily work, and form the foundation of our corporate culture across departments and locations. In our dynamic environment, they maintain stability and enable sustainable change.

We live our values authentically – with the ambition to improve every day.

Loyalty

As a family-run company, loyalty is much more than just a word for us – it is the foundation for our relationships. We treat each other with respect, reliably standing up for one another. This attitude shapes our interactions with employees, partners, and customers. Long-term success arises where commitment, trust, and solidarity thrive.

Appreciation

Our employees are the key to our success. We create an environment where performance is recognized, opinions are heard, and the contribution of each individual is taken seriously. For us, appreciation means practicing respect in our daily interactions with one another as well as with our partners and customers.

Sustainability

Protecting the environment is essential to protecting our health. At Dr. Schumacher, we have always prioritized sustainability – across generations. Our products not only promote health but also actively contribute to a healthy environment. Resource-saving processes, sustainable materials, and responsible treatment of people and the planet are integral parts of our corporate ethos.

Quality

Consistently high quality is the foundation of our success. Since our founding, Dr. Schumacher has stood for highly effective and safe hygiene solutions - with one central promise: We protect your health. A promise we keep every day.

Flexibility

Our ability to identify our customers’ needs, realize them with thoughtful and intentional products and swiftly bring them to market is what makes Dr. Schumacher successful. One factor in this success is our ability to remain flexible, yet pragmatic. We remain open to new ideas and approaches to stay ahead in an ever changing medical landscape. 
In times when service deserts are often discussed, we strive to be service leaders.

Innovation

Since our founding, Dr. Schumacher has exemplified the pioneering spirit – and we continue to be at the forefront of innovation. We question existing practices, think ahead, and develop solutions that create real added value. Innovation means not just keeping up with the times, but staying one step ahead of them – for the benefit of our customers, global health and the sustained viability of our company.
