Purchasing

Quality throughout the supply chain.

Our suppliers are the basis for our success.

Partnership, trust, eye-to-eye - this is how the cooperation with our suppliers can be described. It forms the basis that

  • our ideas can become real innovations
  • we are able to take advantage of market opportunities anywhere and at any time
  • our growth is guaranteed in the long term.

Our suppliers make a significant contribution to the company's success, and the continuous development of our partners therefore enjoys a correspondingly high priority:

  • We involve our suppliers in the product development process right from the start and thus benefit directly from their diverse experience in the respective industries and market environment.
  • We are always looking for the best balance between highest quality and optimal cost structure. We therefore particularly appreciate partners who are globally oriented and can act flexibly accordingly.
  • Wherever it makes sense and is possible, we buy across projects.
  • Do you find yourself in this description and would like to work with us?
