Code of Ethics

Since Fluidra set up its first company in 1969, it has had a very clear premise and value set: to respect people and laws, to be upright and to be worthy of the trust of all our stakeholders. The diversity of countries where we now have operations and their laws make it more necessary than ever to have clear values that serve as a benchmark to guide us in our day-to-day business.

Fluidra’s Code of Ethics is based on the International Bill of Human Rights and the 10 Principles set out in the UN’s Global Compact. It was first approved in December 2008. It was last reviewed in May 2024 by the Board of Directors.

The Code of Ethics is Fluidra’s top level standard-setting instrument out of all of its regulatory guidelines. The diversity of countries where we now have operations and their laws make it more necessary than ever to have clear values that serve as a benchmark to guide us in our day-to-day business.

Code of Ethics for Suppliers

Suppliers are of paramount importance to Fluidra, as without them we would be unable to offer high quality products and services to our customers. Thus, relations between all of Fluidra’s employees and its suppliers must be based on mutual respect and trust, in order to be able to build a strong, lasting relationship, as well as on compliance with the laws in force.

The Code of Ethics forms the basis on which it enters into an undertaking with its suppliers, whereby both parties pledge to respect and comply with the principles established in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Rights of the Child and the Declaration of the International Labor Organization, in addition to compliance with the laws in force, all of which are essential requirements to maintaining current and future business relations.
