Introduction
In this Code, the Board of Directors lay down the ethical standards and define the way SpanSet does business. The corporate responsibility to stakeholders is deemed to be the basis for long term success. The Board endorses this Code and needs the whole company to endorse it as well. Failure to do so puts the Company’s business and reputation at risk.
Law and regulations
We obey applicable laws and regulations wherever we do business as well as internal Company regulations.
We succeed in competition by enacting our core values of Trustworthiness, Expertise and Interactivity, not by resorting to unfair tactics.

Ethical Behaviour
