Jotun's Supplier Code of Conduct

We are committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. As such, all new and existing suppliers are expected to adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct. This includes compliance with labor laws, responsible sourcing practices, and a commitment to sustainability. Adherence to the Code of Conduct is essential for maintaining a trusted and mutually beneficial partnership.

ESG risk assessments

Selecting reliable and responsible suppliers is vital to our business and long-term sustainability goals. We use trusted assessment methods like EcoVadis, a globally recognized sustainability rating, or independent third-party audits. We regularly assess suppliers’ performance in key areas like ethics, labor, and the environment to ensure alignment with Jotun values and requirements.

Ecovadis

Jotun has chosen EcoVadis as the framework for evaluating and engaging with our suppliers on sustainability performance. This platform assesses a broad range of ESG criteria. We invite our suppliers to register on EcoVadis and complete the assessment. Achieving a minimum score is required to qualify and maintain status as a Jotun supplier.

3rd party on-site audits

In certain cases, we rely on third-parties to conduct on-site audits to ensure compliance with our standards and to verify supplier practices directly at their facilities.
