Initiatives for IATF16949

Our China and Vietnam factories have acquired IATF16949:2016 certification, which is an international quality management system for the automotive industry
IATF16949 requires continuous improvement, such as prevention of defects, reduction of variation and inefficiency, as well as detailed quality management.
In order to protect the safety that is essential to the automotive industry, we will strive to provide and maintain high-quality products.

Responding to Chemical Substance Regulations

From July 2019, four phthalates (DEHP, BBP, DBP, DIBP) were added to the RoHS directive’s regulated substances.
All PVC materials, which often contain the phthalates, used in our manufacturing cables have been switched to RoHS2-compatible materials.
Because Phthalates are migratable by contact with other resins, we have performed phthalate measurements on Py-GC/MS for all materials, which may contact our products, from desk mats in the factory to the storage bins. And we have achieved a specific phthalate-free factory to ensure customers can use our products without worrying a specific phthalic acid.
We also measure environmentally hazardous substances with fluorescent X-ray analyzers and are working to regulate the content of substances that are prohibited by RoHS directives.

All of our cables are compatible with
the RoHS2 Directive (10 substances)
