ESG

Governance

The Parent Company, Pininfarina S.p.A., adopts a traditional corporate Governance model in accordance with the provisions of the Civil Code. The Board of Directors is entrusted with the management of the Company's affairs.

The Board of Directors normally meets at least quarterly, convened by the Chairman or by those authorized under the law, whenever deemed necessary by them, and when a written request is made by at least four directors or by the delegated bodies.

Environment

The Pininfarina Group, also by virtue of its industrial past, has maintained a high sensitivity to environmental issues, adopting rigid criteria of conduct to protect the environment, formalized and disseminated within its Code of Ethics and maintaining a proactive approach over the years in monitoring its performance in this area.

As proof of its commitment and with a view to continuous improvement, Pininfarina S.p.A., the only Group company to still manage production laboratories, has obtained the UNI EN ISO 14001:2015 certification relating to the Environmental Management System for the Cambiano and Grugliasco sites. This certification is further recognition of the continuous efforts made by the Company with a view to improving its products, processes and services.

Consistent with the company strategy and in order to clearly explain the management's commitment, Pininfarina updated its Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) Policy in September 2023, also published on its website, with which it intended to underline the commitment made by the Group in developing sustainability issues along the ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) guidelines and in adopting programs aimed at safeguarding the safety of workers and the surrounding environment for all its production sites.

This Policy is integrated by a series of Procedures and Operational Instructions updated in accordance with the ISO 14001:2015 standard, in which the responsibilities and operational methods for implementing the commitments undertaken are defined in detail. Consistently, Pininfarina S.p.A. annually sets specific environmental targets which aim to ensure the achievement of the objectives defined in its EHS Policy.
