Already since 1984 the plants of the todays Automotive Systems division were proactively working to develop and implement environmental friendly products and production processes. These activities and approaches are the basis for implementation and certification of all central functions (including Research & Development) and plants to the international Environmental Management System Standard ISO 14001:2004.

For the actual status of certification and downloading of certificates please refer to chapter certification status.
