Growing and living our values
As a global company operating in multiple regions, a uniform set of core values is essential to guide our decisions and actions. These values of ‘excellence’, ‘integrity’ and ‘respect’ form the heart of the Sappi Code of Ethics:
|
Excellence |
- Delivering goods and services of the highest standards, thereby creating value and prosperity for all our stakeholders and taking full responsibility for all our decisions and actions.
|
|
|---|
|
Integrity |
- Being truthful and building trust through all our actions.
|
|
|---|
|
Respect |
- Recognising the inherent worth of the environment and of people, while being impartial and avoiding discrimination.
|

The Code applies firstly to all Sappi employees. It shows what can be expected of us, both by the organisation and other stakeholders. It is important to understand that the Sappi Code of Ethics does not operate in isolation and that it supports all relevant legislation, regulations, policies and procedures.
We also expect and request our suppliers, contractors, customers and other stakeholders to become aware of our Code, comply with the values and principles in our Code and thereby help us to live up to our values.
Should you observe unethical conduct or illegal behaviour by anyone associated with Sappi, we urge you to report such incidents by calling the relevant Sappi Hotline number or by forwarding your concerns to
GroupCorporateCounsel@sappi.com.
