Purchasing and sourcing

Peace of mind for your planning

Intro

Long-term partnerships as the basis for a reliable supply chain

A reliable supply of materials is essential for deadline-compliant deliveries. This is why we deliberately focus on long-term partnerships with selected suppliers. These partnerships are based on trust, continuity and a shared understanding of quality.

By viewing our suppliers not merely as sources of supply but as partners, we ensure our ability to deliver – thus ensuring a reliable supply for your projects and applications.

In practical terms, for our customers this means:

  • High delivery reliability, even during difficult market conditions
  • Planning certainty, thanks to stable supply relationships and reliable commitments
  • Continuous improvement, as we work with our partners to further develop processes, capacities and technologies

Sourcing mix

A European focus, strategically complemented – the right mix of sources

Our procurement policy deliberately focuses on European suppliers. Short transport routes, rapid response times and close coordination ensure a high level of supply reliability and short delivery times.

Supplementing this, we work with selected global partners if special materials, specific technologies or manufacturing processes are required that are not available in Europe or are only available to a limited extent.

This synergy offers you clear benefits:

Resilient supply chains

due to short transport distances and our proximity to the production site

More flexibility

in the case of technical or material-specific requirements

Lower risks

through strategically diversified procurement

This is how we combine the strength of a European supplier network with access to specialist international expertise.

Delivery capability

Systematic risk mitigation ensures reliable delivery capability

Securing our supply chain is our top priority. With us, new suppliers go through a structured onboarding process. This involves assessing quality and sustainability standards as well as contractual and compliance requirements. During the initial phase, we work closely with new partners to ensure a stable, smooth working relationship.

We also carry out regular risk analyses for the majority of suppliers. In doing so, we assess various factors to identify potential risks at an early stage and minimize them in a targeted manner.

This structured and proactive approach ensures consistent quality, on-time delivery and reliability for customers worldwide.
