From a single part to the body-in-white structure
Ever since cars have existed, we have been developing, producing, and supplying metal parts—and, for the vehicles of today, hybrid structures—for the automotive industry. From a manufacturer of individual parts, we have grown into an internationally recognized development supplier of components and body-in-white structures.
KIRCHHOFF Automotive provides vehicles worldwide with extra stability and safety.
But we also offer our customers much more than that: we make a considerable contribution to the growth of their competitiveness.
The crucial cost and logistical advantages of our streamlined, medium-sized company structure with international presence serves a single purpose: to drive the market success of our customers and safeguard our innovative strength and earning power. This is our pledge worldwide.

Our new Non-Disclosure Agreement (“NDA”) – Protection of Sensitive Information
A new NDA is available now worldwide. The NDA aims to protect sensitive information shared between KIRCHHOFF Automotive and external parties.
What is sensitive information?
Sensitive information is any information which is not public (e.g. technical specifications, OEM project related information, KIRCHHOFF Automotive’s financial data, employee’s data, production relevant information etc.).
Why new NDA?
With the new NDA we follow international legal and business standards and will be able to streamline processes as well.
How?
Before you share any sensitive information with externals such as suppliers, service providers, consultants, etc. an NDA needs to be signed even if it is not clear yet whether in the end there will be a final contract with that partner. The new NDA is based on mutuality, and you can use it locally, regionally or from now on also globally.
Who?
The NDA needs to be signed by the respective KIRCHHOFF Automotive entity disclosing sensitive information and the potential contract partner.
Where?
You may find the NDA on SharePoint and also in the Procurement Area in K>NET in KAEA region).
When?
The new global NDA is available from today on in KAEA and KANA regions. Please use the new standard from today on before sharing any sensitive information.
If you have any questions, please contact our Procurement Department Leads (Klaus Lawory within KAEA and Sumit Dutta within KANA region) or in case of legal questions our Legal Department (Annette Klosa-Schwensfeier).
