HPP products and regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (REACH)

In accordance with the art. 33 of the regulation (EC) n. 1907/2006 (REACH), HPP announces that in products having components in steel alloys, aluminum alloys and brass alloys, it is lead content (very high risk substance – SVHC – with CAS number 7439-92-1) in higher concentrations at 0,1% w/w.
For these products, if used in accordance with their intended use, no special precautions for use are required.

Reggio Emilia, 27th June 2018

PEOPLE QUALITY

For HPP, the importance of the individual and his role in the creation of quality and in achieving aims, is a reason for continuous training activity and stimulus to growth.
Quality begins in HPP with the training and involvement of the personnel at all levels.

PROCESS QUALITY

HPP knows that achieving aims is the result of numerous activities strictly connected to one another. All the company’s processing chain, from administering orders to programming, from the supply of raw materials to after-sales services, is regulated by procedural systems and subjected to continuous re-examination.

PRODUCT QUALITY

For HPP, the company offer is formed by two indissoluble aspects: product and service.
Attention to market changes and the requests of Clients leads to the continuous development of new products that link the fruits of the most advanced technology to our usual reliability.

The good name of our company on the market is due in no small measure to the virtuous approach we adopt in our business dealings, and to relations with our stakeholders.

At HPP, we are convinced that a company can achieve great things only if it is inspired by strong and positive values like those which characterized our founders, and which we continue to keep alive today: probity, skill, team spirit and flair for innovation.

The HPP Code of Ethics gives a clear statement as to our principles of conduct, based on transparency and confidentiality, to areas of application, and to the company’s commitments regarding internal and external relations.

Code of Ethics

With Legislative Decree No. 24/2023, Italy implemented Directive 2019/1937 concerning the protection of the authors of reports of crimes or irregularities that have come to their knowledge in the context of their employment relationship (so-called “Whistleblowing”), providing, under certain conditions, the obligation for private companies to activate internal reporting channels, which guarantee the confidentiality and identity of the whistleblower and protect him from any possible retaliatory action.

PTC S.r.l. already endowed with an Organisational Model pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/01, has coordinated and adapted the reporting system already in use with the recent legislation, by implementing a reporting channel called the Whistleblowing platform which can be accessed by clicking on the following link PTC Whistleblowing to send to the Whistleblowing Manager of PTC S.r.l. your reports.
PTC S.r.l. believes that an adequate whistleblowing system can enable employees, customers and suppliers to send reports in a systematic and confidential manner, and to establish a protected and constant interaction and dialogue with its Whistleblowing Manager.
