CODE OF ETHICS
Whereas
EMU Group S.p.A. (hereinafter, also: The “Company”) established in 1951, has made its name as an international reference company in the field of outdoor furniture thanks to constant research in technology, design and an industrial approach to the production of designer furniture.
The context in which the company operates and the new challenges and ever-increasing contexts have made it necessary to formalise its rules of conduct in a Code of Ethics, which clearly and unequivocally defines the values and ethical principles that EMU Group S.p.A. recognises as essential elements of its corporate culture, to be taken as points of reference in conducting business and any activity directly or indirectly connected to the company.
This Code of Ethics (hereinafter, also: the “Code”), therefore, is the official document adopted by the Company in order to outline the set of values and principles that it undertakes to respect and enforce, in order to serve as a priority corporate ethics tool aimed at guiding the management of relations with the market, the territory and its stakeholders.
Moreover, the Code represents one of the elements prepared by the Company to ensure effective prevention, identification and countering of breaches of the laws and regulations applicable to its business.
EMU Group S.p.A. interprets the concept of “Ethics” not only as a series of regulations and conducts, but as a modus vivendi and, therefore, as the ability to implement its business activities in respect and protection of the interests of all the individuals with whom the Company relates and with the safeguard of environmental resources and their conservation. The objective is to ensure that the core values endorsed by the Company are clearly defined and constitute a constant reference for all in the conduct of its business, and to create a shared vision and culture.
