Our culture and values
Discover Teknos family company culture and values.
Join the Teknos family!
Teknos is one of Europe's leading manufacturer of industrial coatings and one of the largest family-owned companies in Finland. Today, we employ over 1,800 people in more than 20 countries in Europe, China, India, Malaysia and the USA creating a truly international working atmosphere. Our mission is to make the world last longer. In our strategy, we focus on customer experience, sustainability, innovations, balance and a continuous improvement culture. We want to provide the best jobs in the industry for current and future employees.
Although our growth goals are ambitious, it is important for us to maintain our unique family atmosphere in our work culture. This manifests itself in an open, fair and creative workplace and crystallizes in a good working environment where everyone is equal. We also listen to and value our employees' ideas.
Staying safe during recruitment
Individuals sometimes falsely claim to represent Teknos or our recruitment partners and contact professionals about job opportunities that do not exist or are not longer available.
Please keep in mind:
- Teknos recruitment messages come only from an @teknos.com email address, or from an authorised recruitment partner’s official company email. Our recruiters do not use private email accounts such as Gmail.
We never ask candidates to pay fees or transfer money as part of recruitment. - Do not share bank details, identification numbers or identity documents before verifying that the request is genuine. If this information is needed for employment checks or onboarding, we will explain why and how to provide it securely.
If you receive a message claiming to represent Teknos and are unsure whether it is genuine, do not reply, click links, open attachments or share personal information. Contact us separately at recruitment[at]teknos.com to verify the approach.
If you have already shared information, stop communicating with the sender and keep copies of the messages. If you have shared banking details or made payment, contact your bank promptly. If you suspect fraud or misuse of your identity, report it to your local police.
