AMS Business Ethics and Eco Efficiency
At AMS Compostable we have established a family with strong ethical principles and values. Because of this, in 2015 we decided to endeavor on an entrepreneurial project, assuming the principle of “harmonizing actions with what is believed and proclaimed”. Under this premise, we have assumed the responsibility to design our own business philosophy, where Ethics and Eco Efficiency become the standpoint of our Business.
We are constantly looking to integrate values such as honesty, social awareness, responsibility, coexistence and trust in our work team; to our product development process. In this way, AMS Compostable reaches for the highest quality standards, by conscious decision making, strategic corporate politics and a never-ending process of improvement in design and production processes. We do this because we aim to satisfy our client´s present needs without compromising the natural resources for future generations.
Since 2015, AMS Compostable 21st century products have obtained seven international standard certifications, namely:
AMERICAN STANDARD ASTM D6400 ASTM D6868
EUROPEAN STANDARD DIN CERTCO EN 13432 DIN CERTCO EN 14995
ISO 17088
FDA USA 21 CFR 177.2420
COMPOSTABLE 13432
OK COMPOST
BPI® COMPOSTABLE
These certificates give proof that AMS Compostable is on the right track. It is important for us to share with our clients the positive results we have achieved under our BEEE work philosophy.
Our BEEE philosophy is the result of years of positive and not-so-favorable experiences, both personally and professionally, of the AMS Compostable team. Its theoretical practice foundation is inspired by the contributions of the Business Council for Sustainable Development (BCSD), and in several studies carried out by a multidisciplinary group of experts.
Favorable results provide evidence of a consolidated business culture, which highlights a socio-economic reality since its foundation. Created by people and for them, inspired by the basic principles of cooperative experience and customer satisfaction, in order to generate wealth in society through business development and job creation. This business culture traces the path that AMS Compostable decided to travel hand in hand with our work team, allies and customers.
To explain our BEEE philosophy in more detail, business ethics and eco-efficiency will be developed separately.
