ACT, FEEL AND
FEEL SUSTAINABLY
Cosphatec Code of Conduct
Since its foundation in 2005, Cosphatec has set itself the goal of meeting the highest standards: at all levels and in all actions. We set these standards for ourselves, for example in terms of product quality, internal processes and co-operation. And we also set standards for all the people, companies and institutions that work with us.
We have therefore been dealing with ecological, social and ethical issues for a long time. However, it is not enough to simply act in accordance with our own moral convictions when implementing them in our day-to-day business, as regulatory and legal requirements have also steadily increased over time. In addition, growing social awareness demands concrete evidence, such as quality or test seals.
While this pressure requires radical changes from many companies, Cosphatec has always implemented topics such as sustainability, fairness and quality out of deep conviction - not just because we have to. With the Cosphatec Code of Conduct, we want to clarify this way of thinking and make it comprehensible. We are thus reaching out to all like-minded companies - for close, trusting and long-term partnerships. Furthermore, we hereby publicly commit ourselves to a transparent and fair treatment of nature and all people.

Protecting human rights
The protection of human rights is our top priority. We consistently reject forced labour, child labour, exploitation, human trafficking, discrimination and any form of deprivation of liberty.
We are actively committed to the safety and physical integrity of all people. We also defend the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, freedom of expression and freedom of assembly and association.
Diversity is a core value for us. We promote an open, respectful corporate culture and are firmly opposed to all forms of discrimination, bullying, sexual harassment and coercion.
Appreciation and motivation
The health and safety of our employees, service providers and partners is our top priority. We take specific measures to ensure that the health and safety of everyone involved is protected.
We also attach great importance to flexible and modern forms of work. We enable mobile working, flexible working hours and part-time models to best meet individual needs. Mobile working, flexible working hours and part-time models enable a better work-life balance. Our employment contracts are fair and we ensure that overtime is avoided or compensated.
At Cosphatec, trust and appreciation take centre stage. We create a working environment that is characterised by respect, openness and mutual recognition.
Responsibility for people and nature
Our actions follow the highest environmental standards - and go far beyond these standards. We consistently focus on nature, actively promote biodiversity and use sustainable raw materials. Our products are labelled with renowned certifications such as COSMOS, NATRUE, RSPO and organic. In this way, we ensure that we use natural resources responsibly and continuously reduce our ecological footprint.
We reject animal testing without compromise and only use animal-free alternatives.
We also maintain fair, partnership-based and solution-orientated cooperation with our partners, customers and suppliers. We stand for ethical business practices and are firmly opposed to unfair practices such as price dumping and corruption.
Ensuring quality and keeping information secure
In order to guarantee product safety and quality at all times, we rely on a comprehensive and sophisticated quality management system. Our in-house laboratory has state-of-the-art analysis facilities that go beyond the usual market standards. This is how we ensure that our products meet the highest standards.
Transparency and open communication are essential for us - especially when it comes to challenges or problem cases. We promote a proactive error culture and work in a solution-orientated manner.
We strictly adhere to the highest data protection and security standards when handling data and information. Our processes comply with the applicable legal requirements and the requirements of the GDPR.
Cosphatec is a company in constant change. That is why we promote awareness of the values and principles anchored in our Cosphatec Code of Conduct in all areas of the company. Just like our company, our measures and our Code will continue to evolve in order to successfully meet new challenges and requirements.
