The commitment of Epta to legality and integrity

Business Ethics

Business ethics is a pillar of our entrepreneurial activity: compliance with values, integrity and fairness have always been our hallmark and they are an ongoing commitment for all the Epta’s people in managing the business activity.

Code of Ethics

The Code of Ethics ethically drives the actions of the Group towards cooperation and trust towards its internal and external stakeholders, in the firm belief that good reputation and business credibility encourage the investments of shareholders, the relations with local institutions, the loyalty of customers, the development of people and the fairness and reliability of suppliers. 

Responsibility, trust, loyalty, honesty, fairness, transparency, efficiency, meritocracy: principles and values that are clearly expressed in our Code of Ethics, because they are confirmed and pursued by all of us in Epta and by all those who work with our Group.
