Partnership for suppliers

Paramount to our operations is the assurance of uncompromising quality and process stability. We seek suppliers who demonstrate a commitment to excellence, adherence to rigorous quality standards, and a track record of consistent performance.​

We prioritize suppliers who hold relevant certifications that attest to their adherence to industry best practices and standards. Certifications such as ISO, IATF, or industry-specific accreditations are highly valued as they reflect a supplier's commitment to quality and compliance.​

In an increasingly interconnected world, we recognize the importance of localized supply chains for enhancing agility, reducing lead times, and minimizing environmental impact. We prioritize suppliers who offer proximity to our manufacturing facilities, thereby fostering closer collaboration, faster response times, and reduced transportation emissions.​

While cost competitiveness is a consideration, we emphasize the concept of total cost of ownership (TCO) over initial price alone. We seek suppliers who offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality or sustainability. Through transparent pricing models and collaborative cost optimization initiatives, we aim to achieve mutual value creation and sustainable cost efficiencies.​

We are deeply committed to ensuring that our supply chain is free from unethical practices, including the sourcing of conflict minerals. We strictly adhere to internationally recognized standards and regulations, such as the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, to prevent the use of minerals that finance conflict or contribute to human rights abuses. By partnering with suppliers who share our commitment to ethical sourcing, we collectively contribute to peace, stability, and prosperity in affected regions.​

Preserving the planet for future generations is a responsibility we take seriously. We prioritize suppliers who embrace sustainable manufacturing practices, minimize waste generation, and reduce energy consumption. From the adoption of renewable energy sources to the implementation of eco-friendly production processes, we actively seek partners who demonstrate a dedication to environmental stewardship and resource conservation.​

We believe in the power of business to drive positive social change. Our sustainability requirements extend beyond environmental considerations to encompass social responsibility initiatives that benefit communities and empower workers. We value suppliers who uphold fair labor practices, promote diversity and inclusion, and invest in the well-being of their employees. By prioritizing socially responsible partners, we contribute to the creation of equitable and inclusive societies.​

Transparency is paramount in ensuring the integrity of our supply chain. We expect our suppliers to provide full transparency regarding the origin and composition of their materials, as well as their manufacturing processes.
