Introduction

Kraton Corporation, together with its subsidiaries (“Kraton”), is committed to conducting business in an ethical, sustainable and responsible manner. Our strategic house is built on six foundational core values: Safety & Integrity, Creativity, Courage, Ownership, Teamwork, and Agility. Our corporate vision is: “We Create Innovative Solutions for a Sustainable Tomorrow”

Sustainability is core to Kraton’s value proposition, as we deliver on our promise of Sustainable Solutions. Endless Innovation.™ As a critical component of this commitment, Kraton is a participant signatory enterprise to the United Nations Global Compact (“UNGC”). The Ten Principles of the UNGC cover Human Rights, Labor, Environment and Anti-Corruption. Committing to frameworks such as the UNGC and joining industry sustainability forums such as Ecovadis, Responsible Care and Together for Sustainability enables Kraton to stay abreast of the developing sustainability agenda and emerging best practices, and will bring us and our suppliers along in our sustainability journey.

Kraton’s procurement mission is to facilitate the connection of customer needs with supplier solutions. By extending our core values (and our value chain) to sourcing, we create the opportunity for our suppliers to contribute to Kraton’s sustainable value foundation by supporting business growth, improved productivity and risk management. Sustainable and ethical practice by our suppliers is an essential element of Kraton’s commitment to the UNGC.

Kraton has developed this Supplier Code of Conduct (“Supplier Code”) with the requirement that our trading partners and their trading partners share the same culture of compliance embraced by Kraton, abide by the principles set forth below, and embrace and adhere to recognized environmental, social and corporate governance standards laid down in international conventions such as the UNGC.
