At Schoeller Feinrohr GmbH, we believe in a culture of transparency, integrity and responsible behavior. As part of our commitment to ethics and compliance, we have introduced the whistleblower system. This system provides a trusted platform to anonymously report concerns, suggestions or information about possible violations of our company policies or legal requirements so that we can stop them.

The whistleblower system enables those affected to report specific and justified breaches of company policy without fear of discrimination or breaches of confidentiality. We want to ensure that potential problems are identified and resolved at an early stage in order to preserve the integrity of our company and at the same time promote an environment in which everyone can do their best.

We ensure that we do not take any measures to identify whistleblowers in the case of anonymous reports and guarantee that all investigations are carried out confidentially, quickly and fairly. Our top priority is the protection of whistleblowers, employees and those affected. For those affected, the presumption of innocence applies until a violation can be proven.

We encourage each and every one of you to use this system to help uphold our corporate values and shape our common future
