Knowing when to draw the line
V spoločnosti Nefab je etické podnikanie zakorenené v našich základných hodnotách, ktorými sú jednoduchosť, zodpovednosť a rešpekt. Tieto zásady určujú spôsob, akým fungujeme v rámci celej našej organizácie a dodávateľského reťazca, a sú zakotvené v našom Kódexe správania, ktorý stanovuje jasné očakávania v oblasti integrity, dodržiavania ľudských práv a nulovej tolerancie voči korupcii. Očakávame, že tieto štandardy budú dodržiavané nielen v rámci našich vlastných činností, ale aj v celom našom dodávateľskom reťazci a obchodných vzťahoch.
Správa
Sustainability remains a core element of Nefab’s corporate governance and long-term strategy. Building on the corporate strategy launched in recent years, where “Sustainability as a foundation for growth” is one of five strategic focus areas, Nefab continues to integrate sustainability considerations across all levels of the organization—from the Board of Directors to local operations.
Our governance framework is supported by the Sustainability Directive, which establishes sustainability as a formal pillar of corporate governance and provides a consistent structure for implementation and oversight. The directive brings together key policies, including the Environmental Policy, Code of Conduct, Health and Safety Policy, and Human Resources Policy, ensuring alignment across functions and regions. Through this integrated governance model, Nefab reinforces accountability, supports consistent execution, and enables a holistic approach to managing sustainability risks and opportunities while driving long-term value creation.
Responsible Business Alliance (RBA)
Nefab is committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and accountability across its global operations. Our Code of Conduct is aligned with the principles of the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), providing a structured framework for responsible business practices covering labor standards, Safety and Health, environmental responsibility, and ethical conduct across our operations and supply chain.
Several Nefab sites globally undergo RBA audits, with multiple locations achieving Silver and Platinum ratings.
What RBA audits cover
RBA audits assess compliance with internationally recognized standards across five core areas:
- Labor
- Health & Safety
- Životné prostredie
- Ethics
- Management Systems
Responsible Business
At Nefab, procurement is a strategic enabler of sustainable growth, integrating sustainability, innovation, and risk management into sourcing decisions. Our supplier strategy aligns closely with our group vision and emphasizes strong supplier partnerships, cross-functional collaboration, data-driven decision-making, and continuous improvement.
To meet evolving regulatory requirements and increasing customer demand for certified materials, Nefab is strengthening its approach to responsibly managed forests. Our ambition is to progressively increase site-level certification and material availability under internationally recognized forest certification schemes, including FSC®, PEFC, and SFI® to expand the use of certified materials across our operations.

By integrating these standards into our strategies, we enhance transparency, foster accountability, and drive improvements in our environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance
