CODE OF ETHICS

Code of Ethics

Organisation Model
pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree 231/01

1. INTRODUCTION

INDUSTRIAL PACK recognises the importance of ethics and social values in work and business: as a result, we commit to sound, responsible management of our operations and social stakeholders, in respect of the society we are a part of.
This commitment gives rise to this Code of Ethics, which has the following purposes:
• to define the fundamental ethics principles of INDUSTRIAL PACK;
• to establish the reference rules of conduct for those who work with us and for us;
• to favour dialogue with, engagement of and the consent of those parties;
• lay the foundation of a voluntary agreement to ethically govern relations between INDUSTRIAL PACK and its stakeholders;
• to form the basis for adopting the Organisation Model pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree 231/2001 on the administrative liability of entities.
INDUSTRIAL PACK considers unethical conduct aimed at:
• obtaining benefits or the cooperation of others through positions of power by force;
• breaching laws, regulations or rules in force;
• altering the correctness or truthfulness of the data contained in the financial statements;
• preventing the performance of control functions by the assigned public authorities.
As the rules of conduct, values and principles illustrated below are part of INDUSTRIAL PACK’s Governance System, they sanction the Company’s commitment to limiting the freedom to act in a merely opportunistic manner and to ensuring participation and dialogue for all stakeholders.
INDUSTRIAL PACK’s Governance System guarantees effective management of the Company’s operations and a system of internal and external controls that cover operating risks.
In pursuing its company mission, INDUSTRIAL PACK shall take action to ensure that the principles of this Code are implemented and supported by the management, its workers (members and non-members), its customers and suppliers and civil society.
This Code of Ethics is composed of:
• General values and principles forming the basis of the Code, which INDUSTRIAL PACK intends to safeguard and share with its stakeholders;
• Specific rules of conduct, which must be followed by the Addressees of the Code;
• Rules for implementation of the Code and oversight of compliance with it.
This document is approved by the Board of Directors, which shall circulate it to all interested parties.
The Company commits to ensuring that its services are carried out in compliance with the law, with honesty, integrity, fairness and in good faith, in compliance with the legitimate interests of users, employees, contractors and contractual partners.
This Code of Ethics expressly refers to the minimum content set out in Section III of the “Guidelines for Creating Organisation, Management and Control Models” pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree no. 231 of 8 June 2001, approved by Confindustria on 7 March 2002 and updated in March 2014.
Specifically, this Code of Ethics illustrates in detail the minimum content set out in those Guidelines.

2. ADDRESSEES

The Addressees of the Code of Ethics are:
• members of the corporate bodies;
• employees (executives, middle managers, office workers, factory workers);
• suppliers and other contractors of the Company who, directly or indirectly, on regular basis or temporarily, work for or with INDUSTRIAL PACK for the purpose of pursuing its objectives.
In relation to this, INDUSTRIAL PACK commits to circulating this Code to all interested parties, ensuring the correct interpretation of its content and making available instruments to support its application.
INDUSTRIAL PACK is trusts that the addressees of the Code shall conduct themselves in compliance with the values and principles of the Code, making customers, suppliers and civil society aware of them.
INDUSTRIAL PACK also implements the necessary measures to verify and monitor the application of the Code, imposing penalties in the event of its breach. To that end, a specific internal body has been identified, whose duties include overseeing the application of the Code.

3. VALUES AND PRINCIPLES

3.1 Values
INDUSTRIAL PACK refers to the important values of civilisation and democracy sanctioned by the Constitutions of the Republic of Italy and the European Union, and the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, recognising dignity, freedom, equality, solidarity and justice as the basic values of civil life.
Specifically, we fully agree with article 41 of the Italian Constitution, which states that private economic enterprise “may not be carried out against the common good or in such a manner that could damage safety, liberty and human dignity”.
INDUSTRIAL PACK bases its operations on the principles set out in this Code, declaring that we are free not to initiate or continue any relationship with those who show that they do not agree with the content and/or spirit of this Code and/or breach the principles and rules of conduct.
Our bodies, members executives, employees and contractors are required to comply with this Code.
3.2 Transparency and completeness of information and communications
INDUSTRIAL PACK undertakes to clearly and transparently inform its important social partners of its situation and performance without favouring any interest groups or single individuals.
The financial, accounting and operating records and all other communications shall be truthful, complete and accurate.
INDUSTRIAL PACK recognises the fundamental value of correct disclosure to its members, bodies and competent functions of the significant events concerning company operations and accounting. We also recognise the fundamental value of correct disclosure also to third parties, during the Advisory phase or solicitation of investments, both for us and for our customers. In this case, INDUSTRIAL PACK applies best practices or, if necessary, also avails of third parties to guarantee impartiality and consistency of judgment.
3.3 Respect of the law
The mandatory principle of INDUSTRIAL PACK is rigorous respect of all regulations in force and the provisions issued by the Supervisory and Control Authorities. The Company adopts internal procedures and organisation and control models that prevent and combat any conduct that conflicts with the principle of lawfulness, and promotes the “culture of internal control” in relation to all addressees.
INDUSTRIAL PACK makes the utmost effort, to the extent of our responsibility, to combat corruption, terrorism, money laundering and all other types of criminality, intending to pursue our interests through honest conduct, in compliance with the law.
The Company undertakes to adopt useful and suitable measures so that it and all addressees of the Code adhere to the requirement of compliance and ethical conduct.
Thus, each addressee is responsible, to the extent of his/her responsibility, for the compliance of his/her work with the principles of the Code and for adopting the company control systems. Specifically, each employee, within his/her role and under his/her responsibility, is responsible for the positive functioning of the internal control system.
3.4 Fairness in company management and in the use of resources
INDUSTRIAL PACK pursues its corporate purpose in compliance with the law and the Articles of Association, ensuring the correct operation of the corporate bodies and the protection of the property and equity rights of its members, safeguarding the integrity of the share capital and assets. The use of company resources is based on the utmost transparency, with periodic reporting to the competent internal and external control bodies.
3.5 Relations with the Public Administration
All those who operate in name and/or on behalf of INDUSTRIAL PACK must conduct themselves in such a manner as to not incite the Public Administration to breach its principles of sound administration and impartiality.
Persons assigned by the Company to oversee negotiations and/or relations with the Public Administration cannot, for any reason, engage in conduct aimed at unlawfully influencing the decisions of the Public Administration for the purpose of INDUSTRIAL PACK obtaining and unlawful or undue benefit or interest.
INDUSTRIAL PACK prohibits and condemns all conduct engaged in by those operating in its name or on its behalf:
• consisting of directly or indirectly promising or offering money or other benefits to Public Officials and/or Persons Responsible for a Public Service, in order to obtain an unlawful benefit or interest for INDUSTRIAL PACK;
• aimed at obtaining from the Public Administration grants, financing or other income, by way of falsified or altered declarations and/or documents, or information omitted or, more generally, as a result of deceptions or scams for the purpose of misleading the disbursing entity;
• aimed at allocating grants, subsidies or loans obtained from the Public Administration, even of slight value, to purposes other than those for which they were granted.
3.6 Protection and promotion of people
INDUSTRIAL PACK recognises the central nature of human resources and the importance of establishing and maintaining relationships with them based on loyalty and reciprocal trust. In this sense, human resources shall primarily mean all those who perform work for INDUSTRIAL PACK, even through contractual forms different from subordinate employment.
All internal and external human resources commit to acting in a loyal manner in order to comply with the obligations deriving from the work contract, where they are employees, and from the provisions of the Code of Ethics, guaranteeing the work they are required to perform and fulfilling the obligations undertaken, also in the event they become aware of conduct non-compliant with that defined herein, engaged in by other addressees of the Code.
The management of work relationships is based on respect for the individual, fairness and respect for equal opportunities, without any discrimination in relation to gender, race, religion, political opinions, age or health status. All types of discrimination against people is prohibited.
All personnel are hired through legal employment contracts: no type of illicit or illegal work is permitted.
The decision to hire an employee or assign a contract shall be made based on the degree to which candidates’ profiles and their specific skills match company needs, observing equal opportunities for the candidates. The information requested must be strictly connected with verifying the professional expertise and aptitudes required, respecting the privacy and political and social opinions of the candidate.
When the work relationship begins, the worker receives comprehensive information on the characteristics of his/her duties and function, regulations and remuneration and the rules and conduct for managing risks connected with individual health.
All decisions taken in the area of human resource management and development are based on considerations of merit and/or the matching of expected profiles and the profiles of the individuals. The same applies for access to different roles or positions.
Both general and individual budget targets for employees or contractors must be objectively feasible to achieve, in relation to the time available for their achievement and the means available.
INDUSTRIAL PACK promotes professional development through training activities and knowledge sharing, in the belief that individual and collective contributions to work processes are an indispensable factor in its development and for promoting the value of people.
In managing hierarchical relationships, authority shall be exercised with fairness and correctness, avoiding all abuse. Demanding, as something due to the hierarchical superior, services, personal favours or any conduct that entails a breach of the Code of Ethics shall be deemed an abuse of authority.
In the event of company and/or production reorganisations, the value of human resources shall be safeguarded, providing for training and/or professional retraining activities, if necessary.
INDUSTRIAL PACK recognises and respects the role of trade unions and their absolute right to carry out their activity of representing workers, and promotes the dissemination of a fair system of industrial relations, also by increasing the participation of workers and the trade union in the company’s development.
3.7 Health and safety
Respect for individuals’ physical safety and cultural integrity is a crucial ethical value for INDUSTRIAL PACK: INDUSTRIAL PACK takes action to ensure the protection of health and safety in workplaces, and to exercise the utmost fairness in managing work relationships, in compliance with the contracts and laws in force on the matter.
INDUSTRIAL PACK systematically fulfils all the obligations set out by the legal measures in force on health and safety in the workforce.
The Company informs, stimulates and raises awareness of all personnel, to ensure that distraction or negligence do not jeopardise all the organisational efforts implemented. Employees and all company workers of various types are required to scrupulously follow the instructions imparted regarding safety.
INDUSTRIAL PACK implements methods to make all the fulfilments of safety obligations systematic and keep them under control, and systematically monitors the correct adoption of the safety measures envisaged.
3.8 Social and environmental responsibility
In the belief that a company’s need for profitability can be reconciled with respect for ethical values and protection of the environment, INDUSTRIAL PACK pursues the objective of favouring not just economic development, but also cultural and moral development of the community, invests in energy savings and monitors the environmental impact of its business, with significant attention to waste disposal, energy consumption and emissions generated.
INDUSTRIAL PACK cares about the concept of local community, understood as the whole of local areas, people, workers, traditions, public and private institutions that comprise the social and geographical fabric of which INDUSTRIAL PACK is a part. The environment makes up the majority of this fabric, and its safeguarding from potential problems of pollution is, and must remain, a crucial factor for INDUSTRIAL PACK and anyone operating with it.
INDUSTRIAL PACK promotes the dissemination of the culture of solidarity, safety and prevention.
All those who make any purchases of goods and/or services shall act in compliance with the principles of fairness, cost-effectiveness and quality, and operate with the proper and reasonable diligence, verifying that suppliers comply with the principles of the Code of Ethics, with specific regard to protecting the rights of workers and safeguarding the environment.
3.9 Safeguarding the company image
INDUSTRIAL PACK’s reputation is an intangible asset with significant value, which enables it to develop relationships of trust with its stakeholders. That reputation depends on the image that the company has built over time, which is quite fragile in nature.
The company’s image, in turn, depends on multiple and varied factors, the first and most important regarding the ethics of the conduct engaged in by the people of INDUSTRIAL PACK in any situation, and, specifically, in external relations.
INDUSTRIAL PACK trusts that all addressees will represent it in a professional, honest, serious and fair manner and will act to protect its image.
3.10 Fair competition and fair advertising
INDUSTRIAL PACK promotes the culture of fair competition in the markets on which it operates, and acts in compliance with the Antitrust laws in force, both in Italy and the EU, in relationships with customers, suppliers and competitors. The Company’s advertising communications are transparent, fair, truthful and not misleading to the people they are targeted to and not harmful to competitors.
Through the people acting on its behalf, INDUSTRIAL PACK does not offer or accept money or goods in any form to promote or favour the conclusion of deals to its advantage in breach of laws, rules in force or free competition. Free gifts are permitted when they are low in value and cannot be interpreted as instruments seeking to obtain favours or privileges, in breach of rules in force or of fair competition.
3.11 Protection and confidentiality of personal data and information
In compliance with the legislation in force, the personal data regarding customers, employees, contractors and suppliers is processed with the utmost respect for the dignity of the data subject and his/her right to confidentiality and the protection of personal data.
INDUSTRIAL PACK undertakes to process that data lawfully and fairly, collecting only pertinent data and not exceeding the purposes for which the data are collected.
INDUSTRIAL PACK has also analysed the possible risks of data processing and has adjusted its information systems, both manual and electronic, to reduce the possibility of damaging events to a minimum. INDUSTRIAL PACK undertakes to keep those system dynamically updated based on changes in legislation, regulations and technologies. At the same time, it has extended responsibility in that regard to all its internal and external workers, implementing the monitoring thereof.
3.12 Transparency in relations with Supervisory and Control Authorities
INDUSTRIAL PACK’s communications to the Supervisory and Control Authorities and the public are comprehensive, not misleading, clear and timely, and are carried out only by the corporate bodies and company function specifically assigned. The protection of transparency in disclosure is favoured by compliance with the current provisions and internal procedures adopted on the matter.
3.13 Associations and politics
INDUSTRIAL PACK’s actions are governed solely by its Articles of Association and regulations, in an environment of respect for all opinions.
INDUSTRIAL PACK may contribute to financing associations and supporting political parties and/or their information bodies, political committees, organisations or candidates, in compliance with the Articles of Association and rules in force.
INDUSTRIAL PACK may also conduct normal commercial or legal relationships with said parties in compliance with the law, the rules in force and this Code of Ethics.
3.14 Conflicts of interest
The addressees of the Code shall abstain from carrying out actions in which they even indirectly hold interests in potential conflict with those of INDUSTRIAL PACK or its group in general, such as, for example, personal or family financial or commercial interests with customers, suppliers or competitors.
A conflict of interest arises where a director, executive, employee or contractor pursues or attempts to pursue, for himself/herself or for third parties, an objective different from that pursued by INDUSTRIAL PACK, or voluntarily obtains or attempts to obtain a personal benefit when carrying out activities performed in the interest of INDUSTRIAL PACK, or obtains or attempts to obtain such benefit for third parties. For this reason, practices of corruption, illegitimate favours, collusive conduct, or solicitations – directly or through third parties – of personal and career privileges for themselves or for others and other similar behaviour are prohibited.
INDUSTRIAL PACK’s management, employees and contractors shall abstain from making and/or receiving gifts of any type or value in working relationships, unless they are of low value and in line with usual business practices, paying specific attention to relations with employees of the Public Administration.
Customers and suppliers of INDUSTRIAL PACK are asked to refrain from giving gifts that could incite the addressees of the Code to engage in conduct in conflict with the interests of the Company, including moral interests.
INDUSTRIAL PACK recognises and respects the right of its employees and contractors to make investments and participate in deals or activities of other types outside of those carried out in the interests of INDUSTRIAL PACK, provided that this is activity permitted by law and the rules of the contracts and the Articles of Association, and compatible with the obligations undertaken as members, employees or contractors.
Each situation which could constitute or result in even a potential conflict of interest must be promptly communicated to the Supervisory Body and the party’s hierarchical superior so that suitable measures may be taken. Specifically, all members, employees and contractors of INDUSTRIAL PACK are required to avoid conflicts of interest between their personal and family financial operations and the duties they fulfil within their company structure. Merely by way of example, the following situations give rise to conflicts of interest:
• Performing top management functions (managing director, director, division manager) or the substance of significant economic or financial interest in suppliers, customers, competitors or commercial partners of INDUSTRIAL PACK or the group, also through their family members;
• Using their position at INDUSTRIAL PACK or the group, or the information acquired in their work in order to create a conflict between their personal interests and the interests of INDUSTRIAL PACK or the group;
• Performing work of any type at customers, suppliers or competitors;
• Accepting or offering money, favours or benefits from/to people that have or intend to have business relationships with INDUSTRIAL PACK or the group.
3.15 Use of IT devices
INDUSTRIAL PACK prohibits any practice that could breach the confidentiality of its IT systems or those of public or private third parties, or in any event cause harm, or for the purpose of falsifying a probative public or private IT document.
INDUSTRIAL PACK demands compliance with the current legislation on the processing of personal data and the implementation of company provisions on the matter and the related documents when using IT devices owned by the company.
3.16 Mass media
Relations with the mass media are reserved exclusively to the functions and managers assigned to such activities. INDUSTRIAL PACK externally communicates truthful and transparent information.
Members, employees and contractors shall not provide information outside the company, nor commit to providing it, without authorisation from the competent functions.
In no way or form may members, employees or contractors offer payments, gifts or other benefits for the purpose of influencing the professional activities of the mass media, or which could reasonably be interpreted as such.
