All our investment projects are pursued using modern, environmentally friendly and thus energy-efficient and economically sound technologies. For us, conserving the environment takes top priority, side by side with ensuring the health and safety of our employees. We have laid this down in our Code of Ethics, which is binding for the entire PCC Group. Our understanding of sustainability also includes a long-term relationship based on partnership with all stakeholders including our social partners and the communities near our sites.
A holistic approach to sustainability
Sustainability is firmly anchored in our corporate philosophy, with equal weighting being given to its economic, ecological and social aspects. We do not see any contradiction between these criteria, viewing them instead as integral and as mutually beneficial components of value-enhancing growth.
PCC has adopted a corporate culture in which continuous improvement, sustainable competitiveness and outperformance are reconciled with recognized ethical standards. PCC accepts ethical responsibility for ensuring the adoption and pursuit of sustainable, ecologically sound, economically efficient and fair business practice.
Our Group-wide commitment to social responsibility constitutes an integral component of our corporate philosophy. All employees of the PCC Group are trained in accordance with their function, level of authority and qualifications to properly discharge their responsibilities in all such matters.
