EPIfoc firmly believes in the importance of ensuring sustainability, which is why we are aligned with the United Nations 2030 Agenda, promoting actions in the economic, social and environmental environments that allow us to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, where EPIfoc can have an impact.
The EPI INDUSTRIES family of companies considers sustainable procurement policy to be an indispensable part of the company’s overall sustainability policy. Our sustainable purchasing policy is aligned with our corporate values of RESPONSIBILITY, ETHICS, DIVERSITY, TEAMWORK, PASSION AND SUSTAINABILITY.
A sustainable purchasing policy allows us to ensure the stable quality of our products over time.

EPIfoc considers that compliance with its Code of Conduct by the Supplier, while ensuring that its own suppliers comply with the good ethical, social and environmental practices set out therein, is a determining requirement for establishing a lasting relationship and that its acceptance constitutes a solid principle of collaboration, because it is a commitment to the company and to the responsibility it has towards its social and environmental surroundings, while ensuring the quality of the products throughout the entire supply chain.
The EPIfoc Group reserves the right to set up controls to verify compliance with its Code of Conduct. Non-adherence to or non-compliance with these principles may lead to the questioning or even termination of the business partnership.
