Responsibility

We see it as a part of our entrepreneurial responsibility to sustain and to protect our environment. This is why we are engaged in the climate protection beyond our daily business.

We have allied with other medium-sized businesses in order to interconnect the climate protection and the commercial dealing. The commitment of the „pro climate“-initiative founded for this purpose focuses on the three fields: to offer efficient products, to advice on environmentally relevant energy topics and to support climate protection projects. Thanks to this initiative, more than 147,000 trees have been planted in the last few years in Germany. Since 2008, a research project is supported which eventually aims at understanding the effect of the climate change better and to deduce conclusions for an environmentally responsible behaviour.

Ensuring health, safety at work, security and environmental protection is our highest priority. With our HSSE company policy, we obligate ourselves to preventing accidents, injuries and occupational damages caused to someone's health as well as to treat our environment with care. For this, we steadily optimise all acitivities regarding technical, organisational and behaviour based safety and we pro-actively support a security-conscious environment.

Transparency, ethical principles, and lawful conduct are seen as important pillars of our corporate governance. Under the umbrella of the Petronord Group, we are part of the Mabanaft GmbH & Co. KG corporate network. Therefore, common compliance guidelines and instruments apply to us to ensure our principles and responsible behaviour. The focus is particularly on preventing corruption, bribery and fraud, as well as addressing issues of competition law, sanctions and misconduct towards employees.

Our shared Code of Conduct provides guidance for individual behaviour for employees, business partners and suppliers alike. It is based on the values and corporate philosophy of the Group. The Code is designed to ensure compliance with both legal regulations and binding corporate guidelines.

In addition to our usual reporting channels, the online platform CARE (Concerns And REporting) is the reporting system for the Mabanaft group of companies and offers employees and business partners a secure and uncomplicated way to report suspected misconduct. Employees, business partners and suppliers can use the online reporting system CARE (Concerns And REporting) to report suspected misconduct easily and anonymously if the Code of Conduct or internal guidelines are disregarded (e.g. fraudulent behaviour, environmental damage or occupational safety concerns).

In 2024, the Supply Chain Due Diligence Act – abbreviated as LkSG – came into force. We see the LkSG not only as a binding legal obligation but also as a matter of course and a minimum standard in terms of our responsibility towards employees, customers and suppliers. Accordingly, as a company within the Mabanaft corporate network, the fundamental declaration adopted for the Mabanaft Group applies to us, providing comprehensive insight into the principles and standards made available.
