In everything we do, we always act with integrity, righteousness and exclusively in accordance with applicable laws and regulations in order to secure and promote the trust of our business partners and our industry, but also of our employees, in us and our products. It is precisely this trust in us and our products that shapes our business activities and forms the basis for our success.
Not only do we demand the aforesaid from ourselves, but also expect all those who we do business with to follow the same principles.
To ensure the above, Anschütz maintains a comprehensive ethics and compliance program. Details can be found on this page as well as on the pages linked thereunder.
Code of Conduct
Anschütz is a Kiel-based company with a long tradition in the international maritime business. We attach great importance to ethical behaviour as the basis for our business relationships. From this we derive our obligation to comply with laws and regulations and stand for reliability and loyalty towards our employees and partners.
The Code of Conduct of Anschütz GmbH forms the guideline for the actions of all companies in the Anschütz Group.
Supplier Code of Conduct
For Anschütz, responsible procurement means that we are committed to taking into account social, ethical and environmental requirements and standards in relation to our products and supply chains as well as in the organization of our supplier relationships. We value our suppliers as important partners in fulfilling this commitment and, as a conscientious company, we attach great importance to cooperative relationships based on trust, fairness and transparency.
Anschütz GmbH has therefore developed a Supplier Code of Conduct to establish clear guidelines for our suppliers and to ensure that common values are shared in terms of ethical behavior, sustainability and integrity. These guidelines serve as the basis for a successful and responsible cooperation between Anschütz GmbH and our suppliers.
Secure Supply Chain (AEO)
Anschütz is certified as an Authorized Economic Operator (AEO). Within the international supply chain our company takes the role of a manufacturer and exporter. As such Anschütz has been approved by German Customs administration to comply with WCO or equivalent supply chain security standards.
Cyber Security
Our company is committed to meeting the highest standards of cyber security. This includes meeting specific requirements, such as the UK Cyber Essentials Plus Scheme. This certification demonstrates our commitment to the security of our systems, data and the continuity of our business processes.
By meeting the requirements of Cyber Essentials Plus, we demonstrate that we have implemented robust security measures to protect ourselves from common cyber threats. This includes effectively controlling access to our systems, ensuring secure configurations, protecting against malware and viruses, regularly updating software and securely managing networks.
Our endeavour to meet these standards goes beyond mere compliance - it is a demonstration of our commitment to ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our customers' and our company's data.
Fulfilling Cyber Essentials Plus is not just a goal for us, but an ongoing process. We are continually committed to improving our security measures to meet evolving cyber threats and evolving best practices in cyber security.
We understand the importance of strong cyber security and are proud to offer our customers and partners the peace of mind that their data is in safe hands with us. Our efforts to fulfil Cyber Essentials Plus are a testament to our commitment to the highest security standards and a measure of our company's reliability in the digital world.
SpeakUp (Filing a Complaint)
