IWAY - The IKEA Way

IWAY is the IKEA way for responsibly procuring products, services, materials, and components. It sets clear expectations and ways of working for environmental, social, and working conditions, as well as animal welfare, and is mandatory for all suppliers and service providers that work with IKEA.

You can find more information on the IWAY system here:
IWAY: the code of conduct for IKEA suppliers – IKEA Global.

Let Us Take Responsibility Together

At Ingka, we believe that good business is built on trust, transparency, and care—for people, for data, and for the planet. That is why we take third-party risk management seriously, and we want to do it together with you.

As one of our valued suppliers, you play an important role in helping us keep our business safe and responsible. Whether it is protecting personal data, ensuring safe working environments, or living up to our Business Ethics and Code of Conduct, we are here to support each other in doing what is right.

 

We are committed to working side by side with our suppliers to:

  • Strengthen cybersecurity and protect the information we share.
  • Promote health and safety for every person involved in our supply chain.
  • Uphold our Code of Conduct, ensuring ethical and sustainable practices.

Together, we can build a better every day—one that is secure, fair, and respectful.
