UAC has consciously tried to create an environment where in an individual’s beliefs, history and culture are nurtured. UAC strives to protect the environment, and educating the working community so as to bring forth the goodness of living with a clean green environment.
UAC created a separate division in 2005 to address these needs We practice Code of Conduct and enforce these standards through a comprehensive supplier-monitoring program. Be it a Social Audit; CT-PAT or Raw Material legality issue. Our In-house team is fully trained and equipped to guide and ensure compliance is maintained at the factories. UAC advocates FSC in principle and promotes the cause relentlessly with its supply chain. UAC owners are as of last year are credited to bring forth the FSC COC certification to the Indian furniture industry and have more than 50% factories certified under the FSC laid principles. FSC does not accept the use of raw materials from sources where harvesting could have a negative impact on the local population.
Our customers expect us to be an ethical as well as an efficient business partner, and these ethical standards are equally important to them and us.
Compliance with these norms is mandatory for UAC suppliers We evaluate all new suppliers and where ever needed guide them to ensure they upgrade and maintain the standards as set. We encourage evaluations by third parties. We advise and help our suppliers to find ways to reduce the environmental impact of their production processes and to improve the working conditions of their labor force.
By investing in people, and creating a fully fledged separate division UAC has committed to its role as a Socially responsible organization.
