Factory Audits
We’ve developed long term relationships with all of our manufacturing partners.
Using our experience and knowledge of sourcing and quality management systems, we constantly evaluate our partners on the following aspects:
It’s important that our manufacturing partners have sufficient highly skilled machinists and operatives to deliver products to the correct level of quality and performance
We always want to be sure that there is sufficient capacity to meet our clients’ production requirements
The quality and scope of machinery needs to be suitable for the specialist nature of the products developed for our clients
We need to be sure that the factory environment is both safe for the employees and maintained to a high standard to maximise the quality of the production
These are critical to the efficient and timely delivery of our clients’ orders
Fundamental to the delivery of high-quality products is the ability of our manufacturing partners to monitor the quality of the production lines in an effective manner
With good management systems in place, we can be sure that our manufacturing partners can deliver top quality products at the right time
All of our manufacturing partners are fully audited to the highest standards, and we constantly monitor their progress to ensure that standards are always developed to the highest level. For more information please refer to our CSR section here.
CSR (Corporate and Social Responsibility)
At Oxyamco, we’ve always been passionate about this area which has become a hot topic in recent years. Corporate and Social Responsibility is close to our hearts and we strive to run our business in a highly responsible and ethical manner.
We endeavour to trade fairly with our vendor partners to ensure that we make sustainable products, minimising the impact on the environment where possible. We also inspect all production facilities and take rigorous steps to ensure that working conditions are comfortable and that all individuals in our supply chain are paid fairly.
We believe in long-term business relationships where we can work more closely with our vendor partners to ensure that they can continuously improve their overall conditions.
Briefly here’s some insight into our CSR and environmental philosophy/actions in our own supply chain:
- We actively encourage our vendors to implement ethical business practices
- Our approach is realistic, objective, and geared towards continual improvement
- We promote high ethical standards throughout our supply chain without imposing unachievable conditions
- We know that unachievable conditions are often counter-productive to vendors’ & their employees’ interests
- We aim to understand the diversity of our supply chain, embrace local cultures, and through our business relationships, support and improve livelihoods
- We personally visit all production sites and forbid any form of sub-contracting
- We focus on building stable long-term business relationships, providing training and support
- We reward good progress with additional business opportunities
- We fundamentally believe in environmental sustainability, our planet is our playground and we need to respect it and care for it
- We actively encourage our colleagues, associates and our vendors to minimise negative environmental impacts
