Philosophy on Suppliers
Open to All Suppliers of Any Nationality, Size, and Experience
In choosing our suppliers, we have an open-door policy, based on our Purchasing Policy, in which potential business partners, whatever their nationality, can view our requirements for quality, cost, and delivery on our website before submitting a bid.
Working Closely with Suppliers
Growing and Evolving with Suppliers
We take every opportunity for communicating with suppliers so that we can develop a relationship of mutual understanding and trust.
In order to grow and evolve with suppliers, we help them build management systems offering better product quality and safety, hold meetings jointly with suppliers where both sides can solve key problems, and offer training for employees of distributors.
Green Procurement Guidelines
Guidelines Require Suppliers to Carry Out Environmental Management and Chemical Substances Management
Daikin's Green Procurement Guidelines went into effect in fiscal 2000 to help our suppliers procure green parts and materials. These guidelines are consulted during the procurement stage in Japan, China and Southeast Asia, and the EU.
