It is the result of a joint effort at all levels of the company and more particularly at the level of the Procurements, IT\/IS, Quality HSE and Human Resources departments, which were heavily involved throughout this project.<\/p>\n<p>This certification is very important because it allows the Group to continue its collaboration with certain strategic manufacturers who now require\u00a0<strong>a high level of compliance on CSR issues<\/strong>.
