The Supplier Awards reward those suppliers who shine for their ability to make the Pirelli supply chain even more sustainable and enhance qualitative excellence, making Pirelli\u2019s products always more <em>High Value<\/em>, in line with the Group\u2019s strategy.<\/p>\n<p>The awards for the suppliers who distinguished themselves over the last year were presented by the Chief Purchasing Officer, Matteo Battaini and the Chief Sustainability and Risk Governance Officer, Filippo Bettini, at a ceremony at Pirelli\u2019s headquarters in Milan. The awards were given to nine suppliers in the areas of raw materials, services and machinery.<\/p>\n<p>In the 2018 edition, the most frequently seen factors include innovation, quality of service and sustainability, which had its own specific award.

Pirelli is thus the first company in the automotive world to have received this confirmation of compliance. The ISO 20400 constitutes the most important international guideline in the matter of supply chain sustainable governance,\u00a0where the economic, social and environmental responsibility are integrated into the Company\u2019s strategies, organization and purchasing processes.<\/p>\n<p>The following are the suppliers that won awards at the 2018 edition of the Pirelli Supplier Award:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Glanzstoff Sicrem Spa<\/strong> (Italy), suppliers of textile reinforcements \u2013 awarded for criteria of \u201cQuality\u201d and \u201cSpeed\u201d which was also received the prestigious Sustainability prize, which the company deserved because it produces rayon using only cellulose from plantations certified for sustainable agro-forestry management.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JSR Corporation <\/strong>(Japan), supplier of synthetic rubber awarded for criteria of \u201cInnovation\u201d and \u201cService Level\u201d,<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thai Eastern Innovation Co., Ltd<\/strong> (Thailandia), <strong>PT. <\/strong><strong>Kirana Megatara Tbk<\/strong> (Indonesia) e <strong>PT. <\/strong><strong>Prasidha Aneka Niaga Tbk<\/strong>\u00a0 (Indonesia), suppliers of natural rubber awarded for \u201cQuality\u201d and \u201cService Level\u201d,<\/p>\n<p><strong>VMI Holland <\/strong>(Holland), supplier of tyre assemblers and machines for semi-processed components for the criteria of \u201cQuality\u201d and \u201cGlobal Presence\u201d,<\/p>\n<p><strong>MDM<\/strong> (Italy), an integrated marketing and communication agency awarded for the criteria of \u201cInnovation\u201d and \u201cSpeed\u201d,<\/p>\n<p><strong>APPIAN <\/strong>(USA)<strong>,<\/strong> supplier of the Business Process Management platform and related consultancy services awarded for the criteria of \u201cInnovation\u201d and \u201cSpeed\u201d,<\/p>\n<p><strong>Warehouse Service, Inc<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong> (USA), supplier of logistics services awarded for the criteria of \u201cSpeed\u201d and \u201cInnovation\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Matteo Battaini, Chief Purchasing Officer, commented: \u201cPirelli has built its business model, focused on High Value, on product innovation and process digitalization. To pursue this strategy, it is not only necessary to choose as suppliers leader companies, but also to build with each of them a partner relationship. It is essential that they share values such as innovation, quality, customer care, product and process sustainability and attention to brand value. And, in an ever more dynamic market context, goals must also be shared, such as cost rationalization, speed of adapting to new technology and implementation of best practices in sustainable management.
