INVESTOR RELATIONS CONTACT Dr. Bock Industries is your full business partner for garments. SUSTAINABILITY CERTIFICATIONS Dr. Bock Industries AG has cooperated for many years with auditors that analyse the existing situation with respect to organization, compliance and the use of chemicals (Restricted Substance List – RSL). Since 1998, two confectioning companies have been awarded the ISO 9001 certificate, and recently our washing-dyeing plant in Romania was awarded the STEP certificate of the Hohenstein Institute as the first washing-dyeing unit in the world. Furthermore, we undertake permanent audits at the request of customers that are realized by Systain, BSCI, GSM referring to social compliance to RSL. We are proud to mention that we have always achieved good results. In order to bring all units under an umbrella of reliable certification, we created the Umbrella concept in 2015. The target is to bring all units to the same level within the next three years by the end of 2018.
