Compliance at Meraxis

Meraxis, a subgroup of the Rehau Group, sees itself as a responsible family company committed to integrity in business dealings and sustainability. Basic values and rules of conduct are defined in our internal Code of Conduct and in a more detailed Anti-Corruption Guideline. Those rules are binding for all Meraxis employees worldwide, regardless of their function and hierarchical position. We expect our business partners in the Supply Chain to share our values and principles and thus to accept our Supplier Code of Conduct.

Acting in accordance with the law has always been a fundamental guideline for Meraxis. The Compliance efforts of Meraxis relate in particular to the focus areas of the fight against corruption, competition violations and money laundering. Additionally, the following issues will be handled with the highest priority: 

  • Non-compliance or threatened non-compliance with Meraxis internal compliance re­quire­ments (Meraxis Code of Conduct and Supplier Code of Conduct)
  • Non-compliance or threatened non-compliance with legal re­quire­ments
  • Complaints or information on all human rights and environmental risks

Meraxis has implemented a global Compliance Management System (CMS) with the purpose of planning, managing and controlling all activities in relation to Compliance. We systematically and regularly provide compliance trainings to all employees of the Meraxis Group. In addition, our suppliers are instructed on what we expect from them. A culture of open discussion, transparency and trust guide our compliance efforts. That culture and a high level of awareness of the compliance regulations enable us to address and resolve questions with regard to compliance issues quickly and in an efficient manner. It is our goal to live the compliance culture according to the motto «Compliance at Meraxis: Comply – Commit – Trust».

Employees as well as third parties can address possible compliance infringements by using our Whistleblowing System (Meraxis Compliance Communication System -CoCoS), which is web based and respects the highest standards of data protection and data security. 

Reports can also be submitted by post and via email. 

Details on how to submit a report as well as our procedure for the Whistleblowing System can be found here

The General Counsel REHAU Group, the Chief Compliance Officer REHAU Group as well as the Compliance Officer Meraxis group manage all compliance efforts at Meraxis. The effectiveness of the compliance management system is reviewed at least once a year and on an ad hoc basis. If necessary, suitable measures for further development are introduced.
