Purchasing
Partnership on equal terms
When procuring machines, electronics, materials and metals, our Purchasing department works with partners all around the world. The Vaillant Group involves suppliers at an early stage of the development process to be able to jointly develop the heating technology of the future.
Procuring raw materials takes a great deal of experience and instinct: our purchasers are permanently faced with hugely fluctuating prices – and the constant challenge of assessing 30 to 40 different influencing factors before making a purchasing decision.
UN Global Compact
Vaillant Group
As a family-owned company, the Vaillant Group understands how important it is to commit to sustainable business practices. The company acknowledges the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact and also expects its suppliers to do the same. Recognition of these principles is laid down in our General Purchasing Terms and is checked as part of supplier audits.
