Fair treatment
We treat each other with dignity and respect.

Our agreements
We strive for clear and unambiguous agreements with customers and suppliers.

Review by two
We comply with our internal regulations requiring review of certain documents by at least two persons and the separation of operational and monitoring functions.

Fair supplier selection
We aim to select suppliers on competitive merit, after comparing relevant criteria such as the price, quality, performance, sustainability, or suitability of the product or service offered.

Due diligence
Following a risk-based approach, we require business partners to comply with our corporate due diligence requirements.
