Purchase policies
Quality
Nissens aims at co-operating with flexible and innovative suppliers who will support the company's goals for delivery safety, the lowest possible error margin, and continuous improvements. Therefore suppliers must be able to document efficient quality control and reduction of costs. Each month suppliers' delivery security is registered, and the quality of the supplied goods is continually evaluated in order to ensure that suppliers continue to adhere to the standards and specifications agreed upon.
Ethics
Nissens' suppliers are themselves responsible for following relevant legislation at all times, and this applies to both direct and indirect suppliers. For Nissens, it is of the utmost importance that work environment and work safety, as well as the surrounding environment, are taken very seriously by the company's suppliers.
Nissens strongly repudiates any and every form of child labour, force, and exploitation of labourers. We operate in accordance with the definitions and guidelines of the Social Accountability Standard 8000 regarding child labour, discrimination, safety, and health at the workplace, and Nissens' suppliers are required to do the same.
Environment
When Nissens purchases products and services, environment has a high priority. Products for Nissens must therefore be manufactured with the utmost consideration for the ambient environment, and suppliers are encouraged to seek certification in accordance with the ISO 14001 standards.
Nissens seeks to comply with current laws and legislation in the fields of both work environment and ambient environment, and suppliers are required to do the same.
Nissens aims at selecting solutions which affect the ambient environment as little as possible and is always open to wishes and suggestions from suppliers, customers, and collaborators.
Co-operation
Nissens wishes to the widest possible extent to enter into co-operation agreements with our suppliers, thus ensuring that terms regarding for instance packaging of products, utilisation of recyclable materials, delivery, and payment are specified from the very beginning of the co-operation.
