Competition and Anti-trust Laws

Borealis is committed to vigorous, lawful, straightforward and ethical competition. It is our policy to ensure that our business practices are in full compliance with competition and anti-trust laws wherever we do business.

Our Customers
Our Products
Our Competitors
  • We treat all customers in a straightforward manner and in a way that respects their independence.
  • We strive to ensure that customers obtain the best product and service levels commensurate with their needs.
  • We do not attempt to prevent customers from seeking to source Borealis products anywhere in the EU.
  • We do not interfere with our distributors' freedom to set their resale prices.
  • We compete based on the merits of our products and services.
  • We ensure that our sales materials, advertisements and other communications accurately and fairly describe our products and services.
  • We do not engage in any contact with competitors where price, markets or customers are discussed.
  • We ensure that any meetings with competitors are held for lawful purposes, for example trade association meetings, or benchmarking exercises that have been structured in accordance with legal advice.
  • We gather market intelligence through lawful means and independently determine our commercial strategy in light of that intelligence. We may participate in an exchange of aggregated industry data that does not disclose company-specific information where such data is compiled by an independent third party in order to maintain confidentiality. We do not obtain market information from competitors.

  • Borealis requires compliance with all applicable anti-bribery and corruption laws in the conduct of our business. Compliance is required of Borealis employees as well as any party acting on our behalf, such as agents, distributors, contractors, consultants, or any other third party.
