Responsible Purchasing

Daher implements responsible purchasing practices by integrating ESG criteria into its purchasing processes. This initiative, launched in 2022, reflects the Group’s values and aligns with the obligations of due diligence, making Daher co-responsible for the actions of its suppliers.

Daher received the RFAR (Responsible Supplier Relations and Purchasing) label in 2022. This label aligns with ISO 20400:2017 standards and demonstrates Daher’s commitment to promoting sustainable and ethical practices within its supply chain.

By signing the Supplier Code of Conduct, Daher requires its partners to adhere to legal and ethical standards in terms of working conditions and the environment.

Actions

Deploying Responsible Procurement

Daher continues to integrate ESG criteria across all its procurement processes to promote a sustainable and ethical supply chain.

This approach is based on the RFAR framework (Responsible Supplier Relations and Procurement), whose principles remain fully embedded in the Group’s practices.

Supporting Suppliers

To encourage the adoption of best practices, Daher provides its suppliers with a CSR self-assessment matrix and is rolling out its Supplier Code of Conduct across its entire procurement scope.

This code formalizes expectations regarding ethics, human rights, working conditions, health and safety, and environmental protection.

Integrating ESG Criteria into Procurement Decisions

CSR criteria are now systematically included in supplier selection.

They represent at least 5% of the overall evaluation score and can reach up to 12%, depending on the purchasing category, in order to reward responsible practices and encourage continuous improvement.

Training Teams on Due Diligence

Developing procurement teams’ expertise is a key pillar of the approach. In 2025, 83% of the buyers concerned completed the “Due Diligence and Responsible Procurement” training program. This initiative will gradually be extended to all employees involved in the procurement process.

Assessing and Managing Performance

In 2025, Daher strengthened its supplier risk assessment and management processes, notably through an analysis methodology incorporating ESG considerations and the use of specialized tools.

This continuous improvement effort is reflected in the Group’s EcoVadis score of 85/100, up 15 points compared with 2024. By the end of 2025, 35% of the Group’s procurement spend was covered by a supplier that had signed the Daher Code of Conduct or an equivalent commitment.

Our Ambition

Daher continues to roll out its“Duty of Vigilance and Responsible Procurement” training program across its international procurement community. In 2025, 83% of buyers who had not yet been trained completed the program. Daher has set a target of achieving 95% training coverage of the relevant population by 2026 and will progressively extend the program to all employees involved in the purchasing process.
