COMPANY POLICY

ATMs’ commitment to quality is total and uncompromising. We recognize the important role that we play in the automotive industry and industry in general. We are ready and willing to fulfil the specific needs of our customers in terms of sales, service and environmental protection, by maintaining a comprehensive and modern manufacturing facility, backed by technical, environmental and quality assurance personnel.

We have established and will maintain a modern management system that complies with the latest ISO/TS16949 quality and ISO 14001 environmental standards.

The company has identified objectives and targets that are managed to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of the quality and environmental management systems.

The management manual defines the ways in which the quality and environmental management systems and associated procedures are implemented, operated and maintained to ensure that ATM will only supply products that conform to agreed specifications and standards appropriate to the requirements of our customers as well as to the applicable environmental regulations.

All activities of ATM that relate to quality and the environment are carried out in a defined manner. The established Integrated Management System (IMS) has the full support of the directors of ATM; every employee is directed through IMS to follow the defined instructions and operating procedures and be responsible for carrying out their respective duties correctly.

In adhering to the above the company is ensuring a process of continual improvement and the prevention of pollution.

The following business guidelines have been established and communicated to our employees in order to fully realize this company policy:
