A Legacy of Putting People First: I Belong at Huber
At Huber, our 140-year journey has been guided by a simple yet powerful principle: putting people first. This isn’t just a modern corporate value—it’s woven into the very fabric of our history, dating back to bold decisions made more than a century ago that challenged the status quo and championed equal treatment for all employees.
Our Story of Belonging
In 1920, when our carbon black plant in Louisiana made the unprecedented decision to provide equal pay and identical housing for all employees regardless of race, we weren’t following a trend—we were setting one. When faced with community protests, our founder’s son, Hans Huber, stood firm: equality wasn’t negotiable. This courage to do what’s right, even when it isn’t easy, remains at the heart of who we are today.
I Belong at Huber: More Than Just Words
Launched in 2018, “I Belong at Huber” represents our ongoing commitment to creating a workplace where every voice matters and every person can thrive. This initiative builds on our Huber Principle of Respect for People by:
- Cultivating an environment where different ideas, opinions, and backgrounds are actively sought and valued
- Creating opportunities for authentic connection and growth through our 12 Employee Resource Groups
- Ensuring every employee worldwide feels welcomed, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives
Innovation Through Inclusion
We believe that breakthrough solutions come from when people with different experiences, backgrounds, and ideas come together. Our approach to inclusion goes beyond traditional training—we create immersive experiences that help our teams better understand and appreciate different viewpoints. This commitment to authentic inclusion drives our ability to:
- Develop products that positively impact our communities and planet
- Foster innovation through collaborative problem-solving
- Build stronger connections with our global customers
- Create sustainable solutions for tomorrow’s challenges

Current ERGs at Huber
We’ve empowered our leadership team and employees to have open and honest conversations about what diversity, equity and inclusion means to them within their local environment. We support these conversations through the provision of training, messaging toolkits and positive storytelling.
To create cohorts of community and belonging, we offer Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), which are voluntary, employee-led groups designed to connect employees who share a purpose, interest or background. ERGs create a more inclusive workplace and promote cultural competency through engaging events, collaborative projects, as well as learning and developmental opportunities.
At Huber, we believe that different cultures, ethnicities, faiths, ages, sexual orientation and genders make us stronger. And we will continually strive to make Huber’s inclusive culture better, a place where our people feel empowered to share their ideas and know that they will be heard and valued.
