GKN Sinter Metals has been recognized by Jatco with the Regional Quality Award for efforts in the supplier’s Japanese business.
Jatco, a tier-one automotive supplier and manufacturer of automotive transmissions, has partnered with GKN since 2009.
Each year, Jatco awards companies that produce over a 15 month period with a defect rate of zero parts per million (PPM). GKN’s 2017 Quality Award is the first of its recognition from Jatco.
GKN’s representative locations for the award include Osaka, Japan and Danyang, China. The award reflects products manufactured and delivered by Danyang, and executed through Osaka.
The teams at GKN accepted the Regional Quality Award at Jatco’s annual supplier conference in Japan.
„This is a great encouragement for all of us who are working endlessly to deliver on increased customer requests,“ said Leo Zhang, Sales and Marketing Manager, GKN Sinter Metals.
