Norstone Ethical Policy
Norstone has a very strict ethical policy which ensures that the welfare and working conditions in our South East Asian manufacturing facilities are of the highest possible standard. We have built a brand new manufacturing plant that is equal to if not superior to many in the Western world.
Our appointed distributors from around the world are encouraged to visit our premises regularly to see for themselves how their orders are being processed and view the entire manufacturing process and discuss any issues or concerns they may have. Generally they are surprised at the working conditions and the superior manufacturing facility we have and appreciate our efforts to constantly improve.
We place a significant importance on the welfare of our workers and we offer free accommodation, meals and healthcare for our staff.
Norstone has a trust fund for educating local children. We care deeply about our environment and our community.
We have constant reviews of our safety regulations and provide regular onsite training to ensure a safe and productive manufacturing process. We believe that by providing a decent and caring working environment a happy, healthy worker is an efficient, effective and above all else, safe worker.
Before an order is placed with any new stone suppliers we visit their quarries and processing facilities to view for ourselves the working conditions and our high expectations are discussed at length. We believe that supporting companies who share our values will continue to lift the general standard of the local stone quarrying industry.
Our trading with the local stone suppliers is of immense benefit to all concerned since the revenue earned stimulates the local economy, which in turn improves the living standards of those people who previously struggled with a subsistence lifestyle.
We are committed to the belief that it is important not to discard worker safety, environmental protection and quality control in the relentless pursuit of competitiveness to drive pricing down.
