Procurement

We have established a whistle blower system to enable the receipt of your notes and complaints, concerning any potential human rights violation, non-compliance issues with environmental regulation and other legal regulations across our supply chain as mandated by the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG).

Ensuring the confidentiality of your information is our primary concern. We have designated Attorney Mr. Thomas Sedlmayr from the law firm SWS Partner mbB in Deggendorf - Germany as the contact person of our whistle blower system. He will handle your information with strict confidentiality.
