SUPPLIERS AND PARTNERS

A significant element of our success in the area of toolmaking, stamping parts or metal-plastic components is also founded in the partnerships we have with our suppliers. Härter has been working with the same qualified partners for over decades in some cases. More than just business binds us. Because the same values apply for our partners of many years as for Härter. Whether quality, flexibility, cost transparency or just-in-time delivery: Our partners can be relied on in every way.

Härter has high expectations of itself. And the expectations for our partners are equally high and rated according to the “Supplier quality Assignments” standard. The prerequisite for this includes supplier self-evaluations, confidentiality agreement, quality certification and access to the IMDS (International Material Data System). In addition, Härter evaluates all suppliers one to two times a year. The supplier basis is rated according to the valid QS standards at regular intervals.

At Härter, every consumable, every material and every process step is monitored and documented. All products are automatically tested – sometimes with up to 300 measuring points. If necessary, 100% inline tests are installed in the process in order to achieve the zero-error goal. Just as important: process sustainability. The selection of production processes and means takes place fundamentally under consideration of environmental aspects and occupational safety.
