“Freudenberg-NOK focuses on technical excellence, superior quality, and value for our customer,” said Michael Miller, VP, Americas, Strategic Sourcing / Purchasing, Freudenberg-NOK. “Our supply base is critical in achieving and maintaining this level of service. The SEAL award winners for 2016 clearly share this philosophy, and we congratulate them for their achievements.”

Freudenberg-NOK’s internal continuous improvement and lean program, Growtth (Get Rid of Waste Through Team Harmony), is a manufacturing benchmark in the industry and incorporates lean supply chain practices as part of its foundation.
