Ethics and Transparency
Comprehensive Ethics System
At Gorlan, we understand ethics as a fundamental pillar of the way we operate. To ensure transparency, integrity and accountability, we have implemented a Comprehensive Ethics System built around three key elements:
- Code of Ethics, which defines the values and behaviours that guide our decisions.
- Ethics and Compliance Committee, responsible for overseeing its implementation and ensuring fair and consistent conduct.
- Whistleblowing Channel, a secure and confidential means to report irregularities and strengthen transparency.
Together, these three components form a robust framework that safeguards our integrity and fosters an active, shared ethical culture.
Code of Ethics: The Foundation of Our Corporate Culture
The Code of Ethics underpins our corporate culture and represents the company’s highest-level policy. It sets out the values, standards and principles that shape how we understand and conduct our business. Its development, regular review and effective communication across all levels of the organisation are among the most effective measures for preventing unethical behaviour. In addition, it strengthens relationships with employees, suppliers and customers, while reinforcing the company’s image and reputation.
Our Code of Ethics is designed to be accessible, clear and easily understood by everyone connected to the company.

The Whistleblowing Channel is a secure and confidential tool available to employees, suppliers, customers and any individual connected to the organisation. Its purpose is to facilitate the reporting of potential irregularities, regulatory breaches, conduct contrary to the Code of Ethics, or any situation that may jeopardise the integrity of the company or the people within it.
This channel ensures, at all times, the protection and anonymity of those who submit a report, in full compliance with applicable regulations and in line with our firm commitment to fostering a responsible, transparent and retaliation-free working environment.
Through this mechanism, we strengthen our ethical culture and encourage concerns to be raised freely, securely and accessibly, enabling the organisation to respond with diligence and rigour to any warning signs.
Our Corporate Policies
In this section, you will find our corporate policies, which translate our values into concrete actions. They provide the framework that guides our decisions and reinforces our commitment to ethics, sustainability and respect for people. From the responsible management of resources to the protection of labour rights, each policy is designed to ensure consistent and sustainable practices.We make these documents available to everyone as a reflection of our transparent and responsible way of working.
