As such, our company does not tolerate violations and will not protect those responsible for sanctions imposed by the authorities. Violation of laws, international standards and internal regulations may result in disciplinary action, including dismissal - in the case of company employees or termination of service contracts - in the case of third parties working for Herz Chemie LLC, and may be subject to civil or criminal action.

Our policy is to promote fair competition. As such, we require all employees to follow all applicable antitrust laws
Violations are subject to severe sanctions and fines and may lead to the cancellation of the agreement entered.
Agreements and agreed practices between competitors are prohibited if they have the object or effect of restricting competition.
They include, for example, price agreements, collusion or proposals, customer distribution, terms of sale or purchase, sales quotas or geographic market separation.
Express contractual arrangements and concerted action resulting from a sequence of unilateral statements (for example, announcements of price increases to give rise to the same reactions from competitors) in segments where Herz Chemie LLC may have a strong market presence are also prohibited.
Any direct or indirect exchange between competitors (which may include non-exclusive distributors or representatives) is prohibited. This item includes information about customers, prices, costs, salaries, terms of sale, distribution methods, market share, production volumes, bidding or strategies (business strategies, surveys, for example).
During your contact with our competitors, always make sure that no information that allows any conclusion about market conduct, present or future, is accepted or provided – from or to the revealing party.

When dealing with business partners or government officials, they must never solicit or accept anything of value (for example, gifts, money, entertainment, or other personal benefit) that could be construed as an attempt to influence or induce business decisions.
Likewise, employees of other companies or government officials must never receive personal benefits or promise to obtain or retain business or obtain any improper advantage for Herz Chemie LLC.
We ask all employees to inform company management if a business partner or government official offers or requests any personal benefit.
