Code of Ethics

OUR COMMITMENT

At Advanced Distribution S.p.A. we believe that economic growth must go hand in hand with respect for people, the environment and the community in which we operate. This is why we have chosen to formalize our commitment to sustainability and business ethics through concrete, transparent and verifiable instruments: the Code of Ethics and the Sustainability Report

These two documents represent fundamental pillars of our corporate identity and define, on the one hand, the principles that guide behavior and decisions within our organization and, on the other, our responsibility towards our external stakeholders.

 

Code of Ethics: the foundation of our daily actions

AD S.p.A.’s Code of Ethics collects the values, principles and rules of conduct that all members of the organization – managers, employees, collaborators, partners and suppliers – are required to respect.

This document defines a clear and binding framework of correct and responsible behavior in internal and external relations, promoting integrity, fairness, respect for the individual, environmental protection and regulatory compliance.

The Code of Ethics represents a tool for the prevention and management of ethical and reputational risks, but it is also an expression of AD S.p.A.’s corporate culture, which is oriented towards building a safe, inclusive and continuous improvement-oriented work environment.

In order to ensure a widespread and conscious application of its principles, we invite everyone to download a copy of the Code of Ethics and keep it on their digital devices, to always have it available and reduce waste, in line with our values in terms of sustainability.

Likewise, we suggest that you do not print the acknowledgement form at the bottom of the document but fill it out and send it in digital format to the e-mail address: c.maldi@advanced-distribution.com. A simple but concrete choice to combine ethical responsibility and environmental sustainability.

Sustainability Report: a transparent dialogue with our stakeholders

The Sustainability Report is the tool with which AD S.p.A. reports annually on its environmental, social and economic impact, according to the major internationally recognized standards (ESRS and GRI).

Through this document, we intend to establish an open and ongoing dialogue with all our stakeholders – customers, suppliers, institutions, federations, local communities, and the banking system – sharing our achievements, future goals, and strategies activated to contribute to sustainable development.

The first year reported corresponds to fiscal year 2024, marking the official start of our non-financial reporting journey. PDFs of all published financial statements will be available in this section, freely available for anyone who wishes to learn more about our commitment.

In line with our environmental vision, we strongly encourage people not to print the documents, but to consult them in digital format, thus contributing to the reduction of paper consumption and respect for natural resources.

Our commitment to drafting the Sustainability Report stems from our conviction that transparency, accountability and participation are essential elements for building lasting and trusting relationships, as well as for creating shared value over time.
