Plasman is proud to announce that a second location in North America, Querétaro Manufacturing, has achieved the TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) certification. This is a remarkable accomplishment, particularly as we secured the highest assessment level for handling information with very high protection needs.
“This is a great achievement for the plant and for Plasman,” said Sebastian Krzywinski, Director, IT Operations, Plasman. “It was the collective dedication of Plasman team members to uphold these new, higher standards that led to this outstanding result.”
Achieving this globally recognized standard is a testament to Plasman’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding sensitive data and intellectual property, positioning us as a most trusted partner within the competitive automotive supply chain. This certification is not merely a formality; it is a critical differentiator that assures our customers and partners of our robust security posture, and it is a prerequisite for future growth. “Information Security will continue to be front and center for all our customers,” added Krzywinski. “It is important that we always improve our processes and procedures to ensure the highest level of security for Plasman and the customers we serve.”
A certification of this magnitude is the culmination of a company-wide commitment, and Plasman would like to extend our deepest gratitude to every single employee. The journey to a TISAX compliance is a rigorous, demanding process, involving countless hours of detailed work across all departments – from IT and Human Resources to the factory floor. It requires that everyone, regardless of their role, embrace a culture of security, attend specialized training, and adapt to new, often more stringent protocols.
The TISAX label is truly a badge of honor for every Plasman team member. It proves that when we work together towards a common goal we can achieve the highest standards set by the industry as One Driving ForceTM. Moving forward, this commitment to information security will remain a core focus, ensuring our continued success and reinforcing the confidence our partners place in us.
Carrying this momentum is key as the TISAX certification process continues in North America. With both Lawrenceburg and Querétaro Manufacturing now TISAX certified, the Plasman team will be focused on achieving this certification next at Greer Manufacturing.
TISAX Certification in Europe
True commitment and dedication to the TISAX certification process began in Europe at the Lüdenscheid, Germany office in May 2024. Plasman facilities in Simrishamn, Sweden; Ghent, Belgium; Strakonice, Czech Republic; and Carregado, Portugal were also audited in summer 2024, and all five locations have achieved the TISAX label.
