Linde's commitment to legal and ethical business practices translates to a comprehensive and robust compliance program built on three pillars: Prevention, Detection and Response. We strive to prevent violations from ever happening. We ensure the rapid detection of violations through ongoing reviews and monitoring, and in the event of substantiated cases, we respond with swift corrective action and disciplinary measures. 

This Code of Business Integrity ("our Code") provides guidance on how we as Linde employees will conduct ourselves with each other and with customers, suppliers, governments, other businesses and our environment.

Our Code of Business Integrity and compliance program are designed to ensure that we adhere to the highest standards when conducting business, that we comply with all applicable laws and regulations wherever we operate, and that we understand the value and sustainability of a culture of compliance.

The Linde Integrity Line is run by an independent third party. Unlawful behavior or behavior not in alignment with our Code of Business Integrity or other compliance policies can be reported via the Integrity Line. All reports will be treated confidentially. The Linde Integrity Line is available 24/7.
