Nexans purchasing’s and suppliers commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility

Nexans Purchasing’s commitment to CSR

Nexans takes into account several criteria to award business to suppliers, the supplier CSR performance being one of the criteria.

Supplier’s CSR performance is notably based on the supplier’s CSR scorecard (certificate), issued by an independent CSR expert, internationally recognized (such as EcoVadis) as well as CSR audits on site, if any.

Nexans suppliers are encouraged to get their CSR performance assessed, certified by a CSR scorecard, and up-dated regularly.

Nexans reserves the status of preferred supplier to suppliers with a good CSR performance (among other strengths) and supports suppliers who improve their CSR performances in a continuous and sustainable way.

Nexans reserves the right to delist a supplier who would not respect the CSR principles.
