# Compliance and business ethics Last updated: 2026-11-14 This page states the compliance principles Hebei Karmind Plastic & Rubber Products Co., Ltd. applies to its product, export, commercial and data-handling activities. It is a public summary, not a substitute for the contract, the safety data sheet, the applicable law or a regulator’s decision. ## Product regulatory compliance Products are supplied with the technical data sheet and safety data sheet appropriate to the model and market. Classification, labelling, transport information and use restrictions can differ between jurisdictions. The importer or distributor is responsible for confirming the registration, notification, labelling and market-access requirements that apply at the destination, and for keeping the documents that prove it. Where a declaration, certificate or test report is requested, we identify the legal entity, product, standard and batch or scope it covers. We do not present a certificate for one model or scope as if it covered another. A declaration of performance, where issued, is a document with a stated scope; it is not a general statement that every product is certified for every use. ## Export controls and sanctions Export and re-export can be subject to controls on products, end uses, end users and destinations. We expect customers and distributors to provide accurate end-use and end-user information when requested, and not to divert a product to a prohibited weapon, military, nuclear, chemical or other controlled application. We may decline or hold an order where the available information indicates a sanctions, export-control, safety or regulatory concern. A quotation is not an export authorisation, and the buyer remains responsible for obtaining any licence its jurisdiction requires. ## Anti-bribery and facilitation payments We do not offer, promise, authorise or accept bribes, kickbacks or improper advantages to obtain or retain business. Facilitation payments — small payments to speed up a routine government action — are not permitted. Gifts and hospitality must be modest, lawful, transparent and unrelated to a pending decision; they must not be used to influence a tender, inspection, customs decision or technical approval. ## Fair competition We compete on product, service and price. We do not make agreements with competitors to fix prices, allocate markets or customers, restrict supply or rig bids. Staff and representatives must not exchange competitively sensitive information — current or future prices, margins, customer lists or tender intentions — with a competitor. ## Conflicts of interest Staff and representatives must disclose a personal, financial or family interest that could improperly influence a purchasing, approval or customer decision. Where a conflict exists, the person is excluded from the decision and an alternative approver is used. ## Data protection Personal data is handled under the [privacy policy](https://karmindadhesive.com/privacy/) and the [cookie policy](https://karmindadhesive.com/cookies/). Access is limited to people who need it for an enquiry, order, legal obligation or security purpose. We do not sell personal data. A request to access, correct or delete data can be sent to [martin@karmindadhesive.com](mailto:martin@karmindadhesive.com). ## Labour and supply chain We expect our own operations and suppliers to respect applicable labour, health and safety and environmental law, including the prohibition of forced labour, child labour and unlawful discrimination. A supplier or customer may ask reasonable due-diligence questions; we will answer those we can substantiate and will not fabricate an audit or a certificate. ## Product safety and labelling A product is supplied with the label, pack and safety information required for its intended market. The buyer must not alter a label, remove a hazard statement or repack a product in a way that changes its classification without confirming the legal requirements of the destination. Where a product is intended for professional use, the buyer is responsible for making the current safety data sheet available to the people who handle it. ## Representatives and intermediaries Agents, distributors and consultants acting for Karmind are expected to follow this page. They may not offer a payment, gift or advantage that Karmind itself would not permit, and they may not describe a product as certified, approved or registered unless the relevant document covers that model and market. A breach can lead to termination of the relationship. ## Raising a concern Employees, distributors, suppliers and customers can report a suspected compliance issue in good faith to [martin@karmindadhesive.com](mailto:martin@karmindadhesive.com). Include the product, market, date and the facts you can verify. We will review the concern, protect the confidentiality of the report as far as the investigation allows, and prohibit retaliation against a person who raises a concern honestly. A report made maliciously or knowing it to be false is not protected. ## Contact Compliance and document requests: [martin@karmindadhesive.com](mailto:martin@karmindadhesive.com) Hebei Karmind Plastic & Rubber Products Co., Ltd.
