Through this commitment, Nyco aims to achieve the international goals of the Paris Agreement.

In line with its Corporate Social Reponsibility (CSR) commitments, NYCO has defined a responsible purchasing policy. Purchases being a key pillar of our sustainable development strategy, we require our suppliers and business partners to take part in this initiative. This initiative will allow NYCO to favor the collaboration with actors contributing to the creation of a responsible and efficient supply chain1 . Therfore, aspects linked to business ethics, health, security, environment and carbon footprint will henceforth be taken into consideration when selecting and assessing NYCO’s suppliers. This charter represents NYCO’s commitments as well as expectations from its suppliers for responsible purchasing practices operated in a partnership.
