We push ourselves beyond mere economic objectives by setting environmental, social and governance goals.
We believe that the role of a company goes beyond business and we intend to use our talents and our abilities to contribute to building a sustainable ecosystem for industry and the planet. E.S.G. are the pillars which we build the future of our Company.
Through the path we have traced with the contribution of our people and our stakeholders, we want to deliver tangible sustainability added value within the markets we are working in, fostering the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of our community.
Sustainability is our everyday goal, all along the value chain, towards partners and subcontractors in any location and project, the world over. Protecting the environment, creating a safe and healthy workplace wherever we operate, supporting diversity and inclusiveness, working ethically, spreading our beliefs towards any local partner company and making our supply chain as sustainable as possible. We take full responsibility for such goals and we challenge ourselves to always measure and improve our performances.

INTEGRITY
We expect a high standard of integrity from every employee, every supplier and every third party, in every country where we do business. We have developed and implemented a systematic approach designed to prevent, detect, and resolve any potential integrity concerns.
This is supported by tools and processes and a zero-tolerance policy for any violations. Our integrity program has created an environment where all of our employees can be open about identifying risks, asking questions, and raising concerns.
Our company has adopted Model 231/01 which, together with the Codes of Conduct for employees, for third parties and Company procedures, ensures Arkad S.p.A the highest level of Integrity and Compliance.
We require that these instruments are adopted and respected not only by employees but also by all business entities that interact with Arkad S.p.A.
The Whistleblowing Channel, useful for reporting violations, is available on this site on the contact page.
