Ethical Compliance and Responsible Operations
Integrity and Compliance

Regular anti-fraud training strengthens our culture of integrity. In 2022, no breaches of the code of conduct were reported.
Information Security and Privacy
Data protection is safeguarded through compliance with national regulations, risk assessments, and robust cybersecurity measures. We continuously strengthen network security, enhance employee accountability, and establish swift response procedures for information security incidents. Training and awareness campaigns further reinforce a secure digital environment.
Intellectual Property and Brand Protection
CNE safeguards intellectual property through a structured management system aligned with legal requirements. We establish clear responsibilities for IP oversight, respect third-party rights, and implement review mechanisms to prevent violations. Additionally, we invest in brand development, ensuring a strong and credible corporate identity.
Sustainable Supply Chain Management
Procurement practices are guided by fairness, transparency, and ethical standards. Our sustainable supply chain policies evaluate environmental, social, and legal factors, ensuring that suppliers align with high standards in EHS management, product quality, and corporate responsibility. Through collaborative partnerships, we drive long-term sustainability across our supply network.
