Sustainability and compliance (ESG)

Environmental and climate protection, conservation of resources

Joma-Polytec GmbH respects the natural foundations of our planet and is committed to conserving resources and protecting the environment and climate. This is intended to reduce environmental pollution of air, water, and soil. Furthermore, our company advocates for the responsible use of natural areas and water bodies. Through these efforts, the quality of life should be maintained for future generations.

Our operational environmental and climate protection encompasses the following topics:

Decarbonization and reduction of greenhouse gases
Use of secondary materials
Material Compliance
Protection of soil, air, and water quality as well as reduction of noise and radiation
Responsible hazardous materials management
Biodiversity, land use and deforestation, as well as animal welfare
Personal awareness
Energy efficiency
Process optimization
Sustainable resource management
Recycling and waste reduction

To consistently continue these efforts, an environmental and energy management system has been established within our company, which is part of our integrated management system. This drives the continuous improvement of our environmental and energy-related performance.

Governance: Social responsibility and business ethics

As a company, we bear responsibility for our products, our conduct, and our actions. Taken together, these aspects impact our social environment, thus affecting our own workforce, our business partners, society, and other communities. Therefore, we must always be aware of our social and societal responsibility in our business activities.

Our principles regarding social and societal responsibility, human rights, and business practices therefore encompass the following topics:

Compliance with laws and legal requirements
Respect for and safeguarding of human rights
Prohibition of forced labour and child labour
Equal treatment, equal opportunities, and inclusion
Wages and working conditions
Collective bargaining and freedom of assembly
Well-being, health, and safety of employees
Protection of young employees
Ethical recruitment of new employees
Protection against harassment
Handling of land, forest, and water rights and forced eviction
Private or public security forces
Fair competition and antitrust law
Prohibition of all forms of corruption
Handling of gifts, invitations, and other benefits
Objective decision-making and conflicts of interest
Import and export controls and compliance with economic sanctions
Complete and truthful documentation and financial and sustainable accountability
Protection of information and personal data
Protection of intellectual property
Protection against counterfeit and substandard parts as well as plagiarism

Shared responsibility

To drive these issues forward in a targeted manner, we must work together with our business partners to ensure that these aspects are complied with and passed on within the supply chain. All actors within the value chain, both ourselves and our partners, are therefore obligated to adhere to the sustainability requirements of Joma-Polytec and to pass them on accordingly to their own affiliated companies. To ensure compliance with these requirements, an appropriate and risk-based due diligence exists throughout the entire supply chain.
