Corporate Policy

The group-wide introduction and harmonisation of our integrated management system (IMS) will replace all existing corporate, quality, environmental and energy policies with this corporate policy.

The slogan „Textiles have a future - also in Germany“ To achieve this, we must achieve a sufficient return on investment to be able to make the necessary investments in modern machinery and a well-trained workforce.

We support the further development of our subsidiaries and help them to further establish themselves in the market.

The management of the SETEX group of companies is responsible for the definition of the company policy as well as its implementation, enforcement and internal / external communication.

The management obliges all employees* to familiarise themselves with the IMS and to carry out their activities in accordance with the applicable regulations in order to ensure that all activities are carried out in an environmentally and energy-conscious manner and in a qualitatively perfect manner.

Special emphasis is placed on the aspects of occupational safety and health protection. We meet this obligation to our employees by continuously working on maintaining and improving occupational health and safety throughout the entire process, from planning and implementation to the ongoing process. Hazards must be identified, systematically evaluated and countermeasures taken to eliminate or avoid them, and the remaining hazards must be kept as low as possible. Through training and instruction, employees are sensitized to the subject matter and encouraged to think and act in a safety-conscious manner.

Safety and acting in accordance with the law are essential parts of our corporate policy.
