We adhere to high ethical standards, respect human rights, and expect no less of our suppliers and partners. Our business activities are continuously scrutinised by top management. The sustainability assessment platforms most relevant to our areas of business activity are NQC Supplier Assurance, EcoVadis and CDP.
