Code of Business Conduct
Suppliers
The high caliber of materials and services provided to Winpak is a direct link to
the Company's success as a reliable, quality supplier to customers. Winpak will strive
to build long-term relationships with suppliers based on their ability to meet the Company's
needs, their reputation for service, integrity and compliance, their high standards
for quality and delivery and their price structures.
In the process of choosing a supplier, Winpak will provide the same information and
instructions to each competing supplier. Instructions and established deadlines for
submissions will not change and suppliers will be satisfied that Winpak established
a level playing field.
Winpak's technical and purchasing personnel will be receptive to new ideas, techniques,
materials and services and will make reasonable efforts to evaluate and consider the
offerings.
Winpak will not be influenced by gifts or favors of any kind from suppliers or potential
suppliers. Winpak discourages suppliers and potential suppliers from offering gifts
and favors to Winpak employees. Gifts of nominal value are permitted provided they
are given as a gesture of professional friendship. In most cases, such gifts will
be donated as a prize at an employee function. An occasional meal or entertainment
in the normal course of business relations is acceptable provided such hospitality
is not excessive or unusual in nature.
