Metal shelves and the United Nations Global Compact

ATOX Storage Systems has been manufacturing metal shelving and storage solutions for more than 50 years, betting on quality, professionalism, ethics and responsibility. In accordance with this philosophy, ATOX is part of the United Nations Global Compact and has published a new progress report, available in our Corporate Social Responsibility section.

ATOX maintains a strong commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility and in 2012 signed its adherence to the United Nations Global Compact, considered the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative.

The UN Global Compact calls on companies to adopt, support and enact, within their sphere of influence, a set of core values ​​in the areas of human rights, labor standards, the environment and anti-corruption.

These values ​​are specified in the 10 principles of the Global Compact, which enjoy universal consensus and are derived from:

• The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
• The Declaration of the International Labor Organization on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.
• The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development.
• The United Nations Convention against Corruption.

As part of its active participation and commitment to the United Nations Global Compact, ATOX has produced a new progress report, available in the Corporate Social Responsibility section. This report includes the commitment renewal letter, information about the company and the presentation of the policies and actions that ATOX Storage Systems applies to comply with the 10 principles of the Global Compact.

ATOX Storage Systems, as a leading international quality manufacturer of metal racks, acts in accordance with its philosophy of sustainability, responsibility and business excellence. ATOX maintains its ISO 9001:2008 quality and ISO 14001:2004 environmental certifications, as well as its Certification of Conformity of Factory Production Control for the Manufacture of Steel Structures “EXC1” and “EXC2” according to the EN standard 1090-1:2009+A1:2011.

ATOX is aware that professional development is a key factor for sustainability, having specific training and promotion programs for internal communication, as well as collaborating with training centers and initiatives to promote employment.

Warehouse safety is a fundamental area to promote responsibility and sustainability within the logistics sector. As part of its commitment, ATOX promotes, trains and disseminates security in storage systems, participating in initiatives and industry events at an international level.

Within its philosophy of social responsibility and sustainability, ATOX is committed to R+D+i, which has led to expanding the range of metal racks from ATOX Storage Systems with systems for automated warehouses from ATOX Technological Solutions.

ATOX automated systems make it possible to combine the optimization of the space of metal racks with the agility and efficiency of new technologies.

The light-guided system for pick-to-light operations, automatic order preparation with Disban H dispensers, the intelligent roller conveyor system or the Sherpa 800 radio shuttle system allow warehouses to achieve maximum performance.

All ATOX Soluciones Tecnológicas systems are very versatile and efficient, managing to optimize performance, energy efficiency, safety and ergonomics in handling tasks.
