Mapei – Ethics & Compliance

At Mapei, we believe that success and integrity go hand in hand. That’s why our Code of Ethics lays out the values of transparency, integrity and loyalty, and sets the expectation that every individual in our organisation contributes to sustainable, responsible growth.
Respect for human rights, safe working conditions, equality of opportunity, diversity and inclusion are central to how we conduct business, everywhere and at all times. 

To support this vision, we have implemented an Organisational, Management and Control Model (Model 231) in line with Italian Legislative Decree 231/2001. This model defines clear procedures, roles and governance to reinforce their commitment to ethical behaviour and to prevent risks arising from improper conduct.

Our commitment to ethical business practices extends to our global operations through a dedicated Anti-Corruption Policy, built on the principles of fairness, honesty and transparency. We are determined to operate in full compliance with the laws, regulations and standards of the jurisdictions where we operate. 

Additionally, we offer a robust whistleblowing channel, ensuring confidential reporting of potential violations. This system supports good-faith disclosures, maintains strict confidentiality and safeguards against retaliation. 

Lastly, our Trade Control Policy ensures that all Mapei products and transactions fully respect applicable export controls, sanctions and regulations — including those recently introduced by the European Union. We expect our customers and distributors to act in full compliance with these rules.
