WIPAG achieves 91 percent in the self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ) from the independent service provider NQC Ltd. and is thus 23 percentage points above the average industry results. The supplier questionnaire is aimed at suppliers from the automotive industry and examines a company's entire supply chain in terms of social responsibility and sustainability. It is based on questions that focus on ecological issues, such as energy or waste management, as well as social conditions, like working conditions or human rights.
