governance

At Electropoli, we believe that long-term success is built not only on financial performance, but also on our commitment to sustainability, social responsibility, and ethical governance. ESG is not just a framework, it’s a reflection of our values and a guide for how we operate, innovate, and grow.

We are dedicated to minimizing our environmental impact, fostering an inclusive and respectful workplace, and upholding the highest standards of transparency and accountability. Through our ESG initiatives, we aim to create lasting value for our stakeholders, contribute positively to society, and help shape a more sustainable future.

At Electropoli, governance is the cornerstone of our ESG strategy. We ensure that our environmental and social commitments are not only clearly defined but also actively implemented across all levels of the organization. Each member of our Board of Directors is assigned concrete, measurable ESG targets, reinforcing accountability and leadership in sustainability.

These objectives are cascaded throughout the company, aligning every team and individual with our ESG vision. This structured approach ensures that our policies translate into real-world impact—driving continuous improvement, transparency, and responsible growth.

By embedding ESG into our governance framework, Electropoli is building a resilient, future-ready organization committed to making a positive difference.

At Electropoli, governance is not just about rules – it is about clarity, accountability and leadership.

Our operational management is built around the Board of Directors (CODIR), chaired by the President & CEO, who also serves as Operations Director.

The CODIR brings together leaders from all key areas of our business. In addition, our Plant Directors are directly connected to this structure, ensuring that every decision reflects both global vision and local expertise.

We believe that strong governance means consistency and transparency. That is why CODIR follows formal procedures and meets every month to review performance, align priorities and share results with our stakeholders. This disciplined approach allows us to stay agile, efficient and always focused on long-term growth.

Governance at Electropoli is also about people and values. Diversity is part of our strength – women are represented in senior management positions, and our leadership team reflects a balance of perspectives and expertise that drives innovation forward.

By combining clear structures, responsible leadership and a culture of collaboration, Electropoli ensures that governance is not just a framework – it is a driver of innovation, trust and sustainable success.

Ethics & Integrity

Our values are at the heart of everything we do. Electropoli’s Code of Ethics sets the standard for how we act as a responsible company and as individuals.

It covers respect for laws, human rights, equality, dignity, workplace safety, data privacy and transparency. It also provides clear guidelines on preventing conflicts of interest, protecting assets, safeguarding the environment, and ensuring anti-corruption and anti-bribery practices.

To make these principles a reality:

  • A whistleblower platform is available for all employees.
  • Regular training sessions on ethics and compliance are mandatory.
  • We actively promote a culture of fairness, respect and responsibility at every level.

Integrity is not an option – it is the foundation of the trust we build with our customers, partners, and employees.

ESG Governance

Sustainability is embedded in the way we manage our business. In 2023, Electropoli appointed a Group Environment & Sustainability Director to lead our ESG strategy and integrate it across the organisation.

In 2024–2025 we carried out our first Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) – a key milestone in preparing for CSRD-aligned reporting. The results helped us identify the most important environmental, social and governance topics, which are now fully integrated into our strategy.

To drive progress, we established an ESG Committee, ensuring that sustainability is not just a parallel activity but part of how we run the company.

ESG issues are monitored through:

regular reviews at management and board meetings,

internal communication via our intranet,

awareness campaigns, stakeholder surveys and dedicated training

For us, governance is not only about compliance – it is about creating a culture where sustainability, responsibility and transparency guide every decision we make.

ESG Performance Overview

Electropoli actively engages in sustainability initiatives that go beyond internal improvements, aiming to create positive environmental and social value across the entire supply chain. In 2023 and 2024, the company focused on reducing resource consumption, improving energy and water efficiency, and investing in cleaner technologies. As part of its climate strategy, Electropoli has been calculating its carbon footprint since 2022, has implemented a Group-wide GHG inventory. We believe that these initiatives will significantly contribute to strengthening the long-term resilience of our business, support our partners in achieving their sustainability goals, and help accelerate the transition to a low-carbon, circular economy.

Sustainability Highlights 2024

 

Area 2024 Key Activities Key Positive Impacts on Value Chain
Double Materiality & ESG Strategy In 2024, Electropoli successfully conducted a comprehensive Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) in line with the CSRD and ESRS standards. Additionally, the Group launched an updated ESG Survey, aimed at collecting insights from internal and external stakeholders to refine strategic sustainability priorities. These actions led to greater transparency, improved risk anticipation, and stronger alignment with the ESG expectations of customers, investors, and other key partners.
Environmental Stewardship Electropoli transitioned key production sites to operate on 100% renewable electricity (Polish facilities), further reducing the environmental impact of its operations. The company also expanded its use of water-saving infrastructure, including closed-loop systems and evaporators, while continuing to optimize energy consumption in manufacturing processes. As a result, the environmental footprint of Electropoli's products was significantly reduced, helping clients meet Scope 3 emission reduction targets and supporting compliance with increasingly stringent environmental regulations.
GHG Electropoli began calculating its corporate carbon footprint in 2022 and has since implemented a full Group-wide GHG inventory, now in its third year. In 2024, the company improved its data systems to ensure more accurate and transparent emissions tracking. Electropoli has also defined its climate neutrality trajectory. These measures provide customers with reliable emissions data to support their climate goals and reinforce Electropoli’s position as a trustworthy partner within the B2B value chain.
Raw Materials & Supply Chain Electropoli reinforced its conflict minerals management system, formalizing its policy and integrating it across procurement processes. Additionally, the Group began conducting supplier sustainability audits and risk assessments to better understand and mitigate ESG-related risks in the supply chain. These initiatives significantly improved supply chain responsibility and transparency, aligning Electropoli’s practices with the sustainability expectations.
Innovation & Circular Economy In 2024, Electropoli made major strides in sustainable innovation by developing new coating technologies with enhanced recyclability and a reduced chemical footprint. The R&D team focused on identifying non-toxic, low-impact chemical alternatives and began implementing low-impact surface treatment processes across select lines. These developments enable customers to pursue more circular design strategies and help minimize downstream waste and environmental impacts associated with end-of-life treatment.
Cybersecurity & Digital Governance Electropoli achieved the TISAX international cybersecurity certification in 2024, marking a key milestone in strengthening its digital infrastructure and data protection protocols. This achievement builds digital trust with business partners and ensures the secure handling of both proprietary and customer-sensitive data throughout the value chain.

ESG Maturity Progress

Electropoli’s ESG maturity has been assessed in alignment with the relevant SASB standards. The evaluation was conducted by an independent external firm on behalf of our shareholders, ensuring full transparency, objectivity of conclusions, and reliability of the data presented. As part of this process, Electropoli is evaluated across 17 key ESG topics, providing a comprehensive and structured overview of our performance and progress.

The first ESG maturity assessment was carried out in 2020, and the subsequent evaluations in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 clearly demonstrate strong, consistent, and measurable improvements across all ESG dimensions.

The radar charts below show how our maturity has evolved over time, reflecting improvements driven by operational initiatives, strengthened governance structures, enhanced risk management, and the growing integration of ESG principles into our daily operations.
