We focus on ecological aspects and the respect for human rights as early as during supplier selection.
suppliers and partners
Our suppliers and partners are indispensable for our success. We select them carefully based on ethical and legal principles. A prerequisite for collaboration is that suppliers adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct. It encompasses the values of our company and establishes the basis for a responsible and trustworthy partnership. This is how we contribute to SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).
We source 100 percent of our product components from suppliers, especially die-cast housings, injection molded parts, turned parts, deep-drawn parts, assembled cables, chokes, populated circuit boards (PCBA), and power modules. These are the main components of the control units that we assemble in our production.
Although we prefer to use regional suppliers whenever possible, this is not always feasible. However, we strive to keep the transportation routes as short as possible.
CO2-neutrality of Serial Suppliers
We aim to be climate-neutral by 2030. To achieve this goal, we also require climate neutrality from our suppliers. Together we develop a strategy to reduce greenhouse gases to achieve CO2-neutrality.
Calculation of Life Cycle Analysis
The ecological balance of our serial suppliers' products is essential for us to calculate the life cycle analysis of our own products.
Our Supplier Code of Conduct
100 percent of Silver Atena's serial suppliers adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct.
We expect our stakeholders to uphold the highest standards of integrity because only then is a trustworthy collaboration possible.
Our suppliers and their staff must comply with applicable laws and regulations. If the law is stricter than the regulations applicable at Silver Atena, it takes precedence.
The principles described in the Supplier Code of Conduct represent a minimum standard.
