Code of Conduct

Since 2011, Alfix has been the principal sponsor of the tiling discipline at DM i Skills – the Danish Championships for vocational programmes. We also support tiling talents as a principal sponsor of both the European and World Championships in Skills. We have long been committed to supporting young skilled workers and our involvement is founded on a genuine desire to share in the responsibility for good, professional study programmes for aspiring tilers in Denmark. Alfix supports the organisation financially and through the provision of materials. The best apprentice tilers in the country thus work with Danish Alfix products both while training and when participating in the major national competitions. In addition, Alfix supplies all vocational colleges with free products for tilers and masons to use on their study programmes. We believe that young Danish skilled workers deserve to work with high-quality materials that are 100% Danish made – at our factory in Kolding.

Skills Denmark Alfix sponsors the organization Skills Denmark with active support of the Danish Championships for Tile Fixers -financial as well as supply of materials.

Alfix sponsors the Danish vocational schools with products for use in educational courses and training for tile fixer apprentices.

Alfix is committed to responsibility. Organisations including the Danish Cancer Society and the Red Cross and humanitarian projects such as the Danish National Collection (Danmarks Indsamling) have therefore benefited from our financial support over the years. We have actually been supporting charitable organisations since Alfix took its first tentative steps back in the 1960s. We originally supported local causes in and around our home town of Kolding, but gradually expanded our charitable work to take on a broader social responsibility. We have continued our local involvement in Kolding, supporting charitable causes, schools, organisations, sports clubs and museums. Responsible strength thus extends far beyond the boundaries of the construction sector – which is fully in line with our values.
