Value-driven suppliers who seek to grow and develop together with AT&S.
Long-term relationships with our suppliers and partners to ensure we provide the best available technology, quality and cost structure.
Joint development and projects to increase the competitive standing of AT&S and its partners.
Standardisation of products and services that do not differentiate us from our competitors.
Suppliers with reliable, state-of-the-art supply chain performance and systems.
Compliance with health and safety, environmental protection and quality standards (e.g. ISO14001, ISO900x, TS16949) as well as our Code of Conduct.
AT&S is a global leader in the manufacture of printed circuit boards and IC substrates. Our strategic partners and suppliers are vital to our continued growth and value adding. If you would like to be a part of the AT&S success story, your role will be much more significant than a simple link in the supply chain: our partnerships are designed to be rewarding to both parties with a strong focus on innovation, flexibility, resilience and sustainability. In a conspicuously dynamic market, our partners benefit from fast delivery times and real-time communication in our sophisticated supplier network. Our goal is to consistently exceed the expectations of our customers.

Sustainable supply chain
Our work and our products bring us into contact with many other companies and partners. Our interconnection with others means that our economic, social and environmental responsibilities extend far beyond the boundaries of our system, requiring us to consider aspects such as responsible sourcing and effective supply management.
