IN ALL OUR DAILY ACTIVITIES, WE COMMIT TO IMPLEMENTING A responsible governance model GUIDED BY THREE PRINCIPLES: Transparency, Environmental Responsibility, and Social Responsibility.
AT AURIFIL, GROWTH, TRANSPARENCY, AND SUSTAINABILITY ARE THE FUNDAMENTAL PILLARS UPON WHICH WE BASE OUR VALUES. WE FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT ETHICS AND PROFIT SHOULD NOT BE IN CONFLICT, BUT RATHER COMPLEMENTARY, AS WE BELIEVE THAT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IS INSEPARABLY LINKED TO SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL DEVELOPMENT. WE ARE COMMITTED TO TRANSPARENCY TOWARDS THE MARKET AND TO CONTRIBUTING TO POSITIVE GLOBAL CHANGE, TAKING CLEAR ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY.
Transparency
“Transparency” is a tangible commitment to all stakeholders within the supply chain. We make relevant information available in a standardized manner, enabling common understanding, accessibility, clarity, and comparison. Transparency is essential to ensure traceability on products, processes, and suppliers within our supply chain.
ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
Aurifil is committed to reducing the environmental impact of their activities through an approach focused on monitoring and continuously improving our performance. Aurifil strictly complies with current regulations and are constantly seeking materials and solutions that allow us to limit the emission of pollutants, ensuring compliance with limits on the presence of chemical substances.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
In the ethical and social field, Aurifil is committed to respecting workers’ rights and adopting practices that comply with major international conventions. Aurifil promotes freedom of association, combat child and forced labor, ensure health and safety at work, and commit to preventing any form of discrimination and abuse. Aurifil prefers to collaborate with partners who share our social values and verify the application of regulations even at partner companies.
