In 2021, Technogym approved the policy on managing chemical substances to ensure constant attention to, and monitoring of issues that affect the environment and health and safety in relation to the use of chemical substances in operations and along the entire value chain.
In 2023, the Supplier Code of Conduct was drawn up, based on Technogym’s Code of Ethics. The document, which will be approved in early 2024 will be delivered to the suppliers and, once signed, will be saved in the Vendor Rating Portal. In addition, where necessary, suppliers are also asked to accept the REACH and RoHS standards, which ensure a higher level of protection for health and the environment, limiting the use of chemical substances in the production process and reducing the related risk.
With the REACH Directive, it is possible to obtain additional and more comprehensive information on the hazardous properties of products handled, the risks related to explosion, and the safety measures to adopt, while the RoHS Directive establishes restrictions on the use of certain hazardous substances in the manufacture of various types of electrical and electronic equipment. In addition, as also indicated in the chemical risk policy, approved in 2021, the procedure involves supplier audits using a checklist that takes into account aspects related to quality, environmental impact, workplace health and safety, the use of chemical substances and respect for human rights.
Technogym does not use chemical substances in the phase-in and phase-out process. It also requires its suppliers to comply with REACH and RoHS regulations. That said, work began internally in 2020, which led to the strengthening of Technogym’s commitment, in 2021, to managing waste from chemical substances and preparations. The policy in question was finalised and adopted by the Group.
