“2021 was a monumental year for ABC as we achieved an important 
milestone of becoming a public company. ABC’s position as a leading 
provider of automotive lightweighting solutions is an exciting opportunity 
for the public market and this listing marks the next big chapter in ABC’s 
nearly 50-year history. Along with the support of our new majority owners, 
Apollo, this listing provides a great platform for our ongoing growth as we 
continue to execute on our plan for ABC to be the leader in delivering high 
value-add, technical plastics and lightweighting innovations to our global

AS WINNER OF COVETED OVERDRIVE AWARD AND NAMED 
SUPPLIER OF THE YEAR WINNER IN 5 PRODUCT LINES
ABC Technologies was recognized as a GM Overdrive Award winner as 
well as a multi-category Supplier of the Year award winner in General 
Motors’ 29th annual Supplier of the Year awards. ABC Technologies 
was one of only 26 companies to be selected for the prestigious 
Overdrive award in 2020, its second time being selected for the award, 
this time for launch excellence.
First presented in 2012, GM’s Overdrive Award is a distinction reserved for suppliers who display outstanding 
achievement within GM’s Global Purchasing and Supply Chain organization’s key focus areas, including 
sustainable value streams, total enterprise cost and profitability, safety, launch excellence, accelerating 
innovation and nurturing relationships. GM also recognized 122 of its best suppliers from 16 countries for 
performance in the 2020 calendar year in the Supplier of the Year awards. The annual awards highlight 
global suppliers that distinguish themselves by exceeding GM’s requirements, in turn providing GM 
customers with innovative technologies and among the highest quality in the automotive industry.
ABC Technologies is one of only a handful of companies in the entirety of the global automotive supplier 
industry to win this prestigious award 15 times and this is its 6th year in a row receiving a Supplier of the 
Year (“SOTY”) recognition from GM and 9th in the last 10 years. While ABC has won multiple SOTY awards 
from GM in a single year, this year ABC won in an unprecedented 5 categories – Garnish Trim, CATT (Cargo 
Systems), Exterior Moldings, Floor Consoles, and Wiper Systems.
ABC was amongst the top finalist for the 2020 Excellence Award 
from the Canadian Occupational Health & Safety Magazine for “Best 
Health, Safety and Environment Management Program.” This award 
is open to organizations across Canada and recognizes excellence 
in environmental protection in concordance with health and safety 
management.

COVID-19 RESPONSE
ONE YEAR 
REFLECTION  
INTO COVID-19
In a matter of weeks, the COVID-19 global pandemic 
profoundly changed how we live, work, and connect. During 
this unprecedented time, the company’s highest priority 
was protecting the health and safety of its employees and 
surrounding communities. Without missing a beat, ABC team 
members pulled together to implement the systems and 
processes necessary to ensure the safety of our workers 
while minimizing operational disruptions.

coalesced to quickly develop and launch ABC’s COVID-19 playbook. 
This document provides comprehensive guidance for a wide range of 
key activities and is informed by leading medical organizations (Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention and World Health Organization), 
local legislation, and industry health and safety best practices. 
The foundation of the playbook is the risk mitigation strategy which 
is comprised of six key areas and is based on the hierarchy of control 
methodology. Each of these strategies directly addresses the health 
and safety of employees that return to work through critical activities 
such as temperature screening, contact tracing, and personal

guidance provided in the playbook enabled ABC to successfully protect 
the health and safety of its workforce while minimizing disruptions to 
operations.

Following initial launch, continuous improvements were made to the 
employee portal. The suite of EHS training topics were added ranging 
from high-risk tasks for plant staff to ensuring the management of

standards and regulations for their respective regions and facility 
activities.  
To ensure effective continued use and synergy with ABC training 
standard procedures, employee progress tracking and tools were 
developed to assist EHS and HR staff on continued conformance to set 
frequency of training refreshers. 
Since its inception in 2020, the employee portal has slowly grown 
from a response to an unplanned change into a vital element in the

CONTINUED
As guided by leading medical organizations (Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention and World Health Organization), local legislation, 
and industry Health and Safety best practices, extensive risk mitigation 
strategies were implemented with the intent to standardize a process 
for ensuring employee safety and well-being. 
The responsibility of maintaining a safe work environment is not taken 
lightly. ABC has been diligently developing engineering, administrative 
and PPE controls. Unfortunately, some hazards cannot be completely 
eliminated or substantially reduced by any ABC act or initiative.
The principals of the Hierarchy of Control laid the foundations in 
developing the following Risk Mitigation Strategies to ensure the safety 
of our people: 
• 
 While elimination is the most effective at 
reducing hazards, in the case of hazards 
related to biological agents, it is outside of 
ABC’s abilities to eliminate such hazards. 
• 
 Elimination would be removing vectors 
of transmission from the workplace, for 
instance, by instituting Work-from-home 
options which may not be the appropriate 
action for all of the ABC’s operations.

These may include, but are not limited to: 
• 
 IR and daily COVID-19 screening, 
•

•

• 
 Based on a hierarchy of control methodology, 
ABC maintains the opinion that the last line 
of defense from any hazard is at the personal 
level, i.e. PPE. 
• 
 To ensure a robust COVID-19 program, 
ABC continues to make PPE available for 
employees in order to take every precaution 
necessary to protect our employees and 
vigorously enforce their usage.

INTRODUCTION
COVID-19 RESPONSE
ABC was quick to recognize the contrasting issues in identifying 
quarantine requirements and criteria across the globe. At the onset of 
the pandemic, it was clear that there were many regional approaches 
that were not always mutually consistent.
ABC instituted a ‘Global Scenario’ approach to ensure utmost care 
and due diligence in quarantining positive / suspected individuals and 
RTQRGTN[KFGPVKH[KPIYQTMRNCEGVTCPUOKUUKQPU'CEJKFGPVKƒGFUEGPCTKQU

so as to prevent the spread of the virus and perform effective contact 
tracing. 
At ABC, the health and safety of our employees is extremely important. 
Throughout the current COVID-19 pandemic, ABC has given ample 
information on the vaccine and accommodated employees with paid 
time-off in case their vaccine appointments fell within working hours.
These initiatives have improved employee health and morale and 
undoubtedly reduced our absenteeism rates.

To ensure effective implementation, ABC sites were audited on

jurisdictional health & safety government agencies, local and regional

customers and suppliers. 
The program and procedures implemented not only allowed 
Management to determine where efforts needed to be reallocated, it 
also meant: 
• 
The elimination of guesswork and honor systems in favor of hard  
 
evidence of implementation / conformance;

continue to change. 
During the COVID-19 pandemic, ABC’s Management and the Board of Directors held and continues to 
hold regular meetings to provide status updates on the effects of COVID-19 in the industry and the impact 
to the business, including the reduction in production volumes, and shutdowns of facilities by our OEM 
customers and suppliers. Leadership reacted to each development with a plan and action that were properly 
communicated to all the manufacturing staff. At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the leadership team 
made the decision to implement work-from-home arrangements for employees who could continue their 
functions remotely. The ABC Health and Safety team led the project to ensure all essential staff had the 
supplies and PPE required to keep them safe while at any ABC locations.

While the COVID-19 pandemic continues to pose challenges, our employees remain at the forefront of our 
priorities. The following programs ensured our employee’s health and wellbeing were supported:
•  Assisted employees to apply for

collaborative effort with input from our employees across the globe. 
Its focus was to connect our global locations at a time when feelings 
of isolation and lack of communication was at an all-time high. 
Highlighting success stories, offering health and wellness tips, and 
showcasing individual employee efforts were just a few of the ways 
we engaged employees and boosted morale. It was exactly what ABC 
needed and reminded us that we are truly all in this together. ABC has 
created six issues to date and will continue to do so moving forward.
To ensure ABC had a proper emergency response team at the corporate 
level, the Company established a Management-level emergency 
response team consisting of representatives from the Management, 
HR, Safety, Operations, IT and Legal departments. This emergency 
response team played an instrumental role in the timely development 
and dissemination of internal communications (including through 
the ABC Employee Portal) to ensure ABC communicates information 
effectively with all employees. This emergency response team was also 
responsible for overseeing travel restrictions and instituted appropriate 
chains of approval for various functions performed during the COVID-19 
pandemic.
Team meetings took place daily during the peaks of the pandemic, 
and then weekly once a better handle of the situation was in place. 
As a result of the formation of the emergency response team, ABC 
has decided to make the team a permanent function within ABC 
with improved structure, standards, roles, and responsibilities to

Know what success looks like
When you’re starting to build a new habit—for example, saving money—
spend some time doing a positive visualization of what that will look like.
For example, you might picture a certain number in your bank balance, or
imagine yourself not feeling nervous when you open your credit card
statement. Spend some time picturing how it will feel to have that positive
habit as a regular part of your life.
Don't leave it to chance
Set reminders in your calendar, leave a note where you’ll see it, build on
top of existing habits and use a tool like a FitBit can help you remember to
complete your new habit.
Find accountability
When we promise ourselves that we’re going to exercise three times a
week, it’s easy to make excuses and let it slide. But it’s much harder to let it
go if someone else is expecting you to do it. 
Create incentive
Promise yourself some kind of reward for achieving your habit building
goals. Incentives can be big or small, but they need to be something you
really want in order to act as a reward.
Track your progress
Like at school when you had a star chart for good behaviour, seeing your
progress can give you a little endorphin rush. Keeping a diary, chart or
using an app can help you stay on track.
You already have many habits that you
can use as triggers for new ones. Here
are some examples of building new
habits onto existing ones:

Mindfulness is a way of paying attention to what’s going on in the moment. It can help reduce stress, provide much
needed mini breaks, and improve focus and concentration. In today's busy world, we can all benefit from these
easy to adopt mindfulness methods.
EXPERIENCE EACH MOMENT
Be the opposite of a multi-tasker. Focus on one thing at a time and give it your undivided
attention. When your with your family, just be with your family. When you're at work, focus
your attention there.
REMAIN IN THE PRESENT
Refrain from dwelling on the past or thinking too far ahead into the future.
Keep yourself focused on the present time.
CLOSE YOUR EYES AND SIT QUIETLY
Repeating this throughout the day will help you remain calm and regain focus.
THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK & ACT
Go about your day with intention and purpose. Before you pick up the phone,
send an email or attend a meeting, take a moment to reflect on your intention.
FIND YOUR INNER ZEN
PRACTICE MINDFUL STRETCHING
Stretch each part of your body slowly while focusing on your breathing.

regulatory requirements, and industry best practices. The courses are

COMMITTEE “REVVING UP

The Employee Engagement Committee was launched in some of the 
ABC plants in March 2021. The purpose of the committee is to help 
support and drive engagement at ABC Technologies. This includes 
addressing and bringing solutions to day-to-day issues that arise. The 
Employee Engagement Committee involvement will support the lines 
of communication within the Company and support improvements on 
overall employee satisfaction. The Employee Engagement Committee 
will be involved in promoting actions throughout the Company to 
help support by driving results in order to maintain a positive work 
environment. 
Some key responsibilities of the Employee Engagement Committee 
is to support and drive engagement and work with employees and 
Management on communication. It also focuses on bringing fun into 
the workplace, as well as to help maintain a positive work environment. 
Over the course of the last few months, plants have had the opportunity 
to bring in employee engagement initiatives such as Mother and 
Father’s Day events, Canada Day celebration, and more. While the 
committee is in the infancy stages, we are encouraged to see this 
initiative take-off over the next few months and years.

The ABC Women’s Initiative Network is a new platform at ABC that the 
team has been proactively working on since the beginning of March. 
The network was created because the team wanted to provide women 
with a platform to learn from each other through advice, mentorship, 
and educational events hosted in collaboration with our partner, non-
RTQƒVQTICPK\CVKQP%CVCN[UV6JGKTOKUUKQPKUVQKORTQXGVJGYQTMRNCEGU
for women by offering resources such as research, tools, and access 
to events. Leaders of ABC WIN are working on promoting more of 
these resources to those who join their network. Leaders have been 
meeting virtually to plan the execution of the network, which is still in 
its initial stages- and each member has been a solid contributor to its 
foundation. 
The network itself will be based on panel discussions, webinars and 
bringing in people from Catalyst to coordinate some discussions. Part 
of the discussions will be based on people’s experiences, how they got 
into leadership, and their progression.

CONSIDERATIONS DURING 
PRODUCT DESIGN
ABC Technologies is responsible for making innovative products 
tailored to exceed the expectations of our customers. To achieve 
the highest level of customer satisfaction, we focus on excellence in 
design, quality, advanced engineering, supply chain management, lean 
manufacturing and precise launch activities. We are committed to 
implementing operational improvements, innovation of products and 
processes that position our customers and ourselves for long-term 
growth, and to uphold our customer’s ESG expectations.
With hundreds of patents on materials technology, products and 
processing systems, our reputation for product innovation is 
internationally recognized. Customers use our plastic components 
and systems, in every area of their vehicles, to pioneer new automotive

· Improved performance, durability and flexibility
· Enhanced permeation and temperature resistance
The ABC Product Design Program utilizes a cross-functional, gated, 
collaborative approach to develop technologically advanced and unique 
automotive product solutions. At the foundation of this program is 
the Advanced Product Quality Process (APQP), which consists of a 
structured six phase approach that is used to ensure effective product 
design/development and execute a flawless launch that exceeds our 
customer’s expectations.
As part of the APQP, ABC has developed a structured procedure 
to review sustainability related aspects and risks for the design, 
development, and implementation of new products, processes, 
equipment, and plants. The objective of this procedure is to ensure that 
appropriate consideration is given to environmental, health and safety 
aspects in order to address potential risks and opportunities. Impacts 
evaluated include the following:
Product Chemical Content
·  Assess the chemical compliance status of carry-over content prior to 
ƒPCNK\GFFGUKIP
·  Evaluate existing content for the presence of Substances of Very 
High Concern (SVHCs) in support of global legislation.
Ergonomics and Safety
·  Evaluate product design for possible health & safety challenges.
· Determine the best manufacturing processes to avoid injuries.
Product Recyclability
· Determine if the use of recycled material is feasible.
· Decide if selected materials maximize end-of-life recyclability.
Energy and Waste
·  Assess manufacturing equipment, materials, and product life cycle 
for energy usage and minimize where possible.
·  Evaluate opportunities for reduction of scrap and manufacturing 
waste streams.

Blow molding applications, such as running boards and bumpers, 
generally require longer cycle times which can become further 
extended if the object requires textures or wordings to be formed on its 
surface.

to form textures or wordings at the beginning of the process when the 
parison touches the tool surface. After this period, the temperature 
of the tool can be lowered based on the cooling policy dictated by 
the optimization model to accelerate the heat transfer phenomenon. 
Currently, comprehensive validation has been performed, and detailed

PRODUCT RECYCLABILITY
At the product level, the percentage of recyclability drops a bit further 
and that’s mostly due to secondary processes after or during the 
manufacturing of the actual original parts. Those secondary processes 
include painting, welding, addition of curable gases/mixtures to the 
melt stream, etc. Once the plastic part is painted, it can no longer be 
recycled via traditional methods. Also, when plastic is physically burned 
during the welding it no longer has the correct properties to be recycled 
and need to be disposed of. As per investigation into this matter it has 
been concluded that at the present, 92% of all manufactured products at 
ABC can be called recyclable. 
ABC is actively exploring different ways to further increase the 
recyclability of all manufactured products by looking closely into 
consortium projects that are directed towards investigating how to 
recycle coated and painted plastic materials.
The Advanced Product Development Team was tasked to investigate 
the overall recyclability of all of ABC’s resins and products, and to 
UWOOCTK\G VJG ƒPFKPIU KP C ENGCT CPF EQPEKUG OCPPGT 6JKU GZGTEKUG
was performed by identifying all of the resins used at ABC, the usage of 
each type of resin (e.g. HDPE, PP, etc.), and the recyclability of each one. 
From there, the team was able to identify which products used which 
resin, and if there were any other secondary processes that may have 
impacted the recyclability of the part.
RESIN RECYCLABILITY
Polymers in whole are the most-used materials in the world because 
they are technically sophisticated, lightweight, and suited for a broad 
spectrum of uses. ABC Technologies purchases around 133 million 
pounds of different types of polymers for manufacturing of its 
products. Around 96.5% of these polymers are from thermoplastics 
HCOKN[ YJKEJ ECP DG OGNVGF CPF TGECUV CNOQUV KPFGƒPKVGN[ 6JG
remaining 3.5% of the purchased polymers by ABC Technologies are 
in fact thermosets, meaning that once set there is no possibility of 
recyclability for the products made of them. So at resin level, ABC 
Plastic Recyclability stands at 96.5%.

Over the course of the last fiscal year, the automotive industry as 
well the global supply chain faced unprecedented headwinds. These 
challenges ranged from the following: global semiconductor shortage, 
COVID-19 pandemic, winter storms Uri and Viola, resin shortage, OEM 
and supplier productions shutdowns, and the global logistic issues with 
the lack of available shipping containers.
The winter storms Uri and Viola caused the closure of major Gulf 
Coast refineries exacerbated an already COVID-constrained resin 
supply shortage and pushed resin prices to historically high levels. The 
storm also caused additional production stoppages across OEM and 
supplier factories in the Southeastern US. Although the winter storms 
impact lasted in Q3 only, the supply chain disruption such as the semi-
conductor shortage and resin prices, are expected to continue well into 
FY22.
However, on a positive note, the consumer vehicle demand remains 
exceptionally strong due to pent-up demand and ABC is positioning 
itself to operate at full capacity once OEM productions schedule 
resumes. ABC has also been working with our customers to procure 
semi-conductor components for the next 16 months. This will help 
ease some of the pressure on the OEM’s and help get production 
ramped up again.

HEADWINDS IN FY21
CONFLICT MINERALS
ABC Technologies Inc. is committed to ensuring that parts and 
assemblies in our products, regardless of where they are assembled or 
sold, are free from conflict minerals. To that end, ABC has engaged its 
suppliers to investigate their supply chains in order to provide conflict 
mineral and smelting data. ABC has provided guidance to suppliers 
to facilitate this process, including access to key resources such as 
iPoint Conflict Minerals Platform (iPCMP) and the OECD Due Diligence 
Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-
Affected and High-Risk Areas.
Between 2012-2021, ABC has a minority supplier spend of over $860 
million and over 125 certified suppliers and counting.
We strive to exceed our OEM customers expectations for supplier 
diversity targets by exceeding our own. ABC’s average achieved

OVERVIEW
GOVERNANCE
At ABC Technologies, we have developed an enterprise cybersecurity 
strategy that has been designed using industry accepted frameworks 
such as NIST Cybersecurity Framework, ISO/IEC 27001, and the 
ISACA COBIT Framework. The core of the strategy is based on the

respond, and recover. These functions balance proactive safeguards 
while preparing for worst-case scenarios. 
Our enterprise cybersecurity strategy was developed by our Information 
6GEJPQNQI[FGRCTVOGPVYJKEJTGRQTVUVQQWT%JKGH'ZGEWVKXG1HƒEGT
An IT Steering Committee has been established and meets regularly 
to plan the organization’s technology direction, monitor progress of 
initiatives and review risks to the business. 
To appropriately manage cybersecurity risks, our strategy introduces a 
layered defense model.
• 9GJCXGFGƒPGFCVJQTQWIJUGVQH+6RQNKEKGUUVCPFCTFURTQEGUUGU
plans and controls to guide our end users and IT staff. 
•  To combat cybersecurity risks introduced by humans, we have 
developed a robust information security awareness training 
program. New hires are required to complete training within 45 
days of their start, and all employees complete on-going training 
throughout the year. We also conduct cybersecurity campaigns and 
simulations to evaluate the savviness of our users in identifying and 
appropriately responding to cybersecurity threats. 
•  We closely manage our perimeter security to protect both our 
physical and digital environments. 
•  We have deployed, and we test, technical solutions to protect and 
monitor threats to our network, endpoints, applications, and data. 
•  We perform thorough due diligence of third-party technology

•  We leverage machine learning based solutions that detect and 
prevent anomalous activity. 
•  We conduct recurring vulnerability scans.

to participate in interactive discussions and share information on

media use by ABC Technologies’ employees may form part of their job 
duties and is a normal activity in their personal lives. However, there are 
some challenges this may bring to an organization if employees are not 
made aware of the impact social media can have. 
As a result, ABC Technologies established and implemented a social 
media policy for employees on April 5th, 2021. The purpose of the 
policy was to avoid loss of productivity and distraction from employees’ 
job performance, to ensure that the company’s IT and communications 
systems are used appropriately and to minimize business and legal 
risks, including legal risks related to securities laws and regulations 
governing disclosure of material information applicable to ABC 
Technologies in virtue it being a public company.

Charity to support front line health-care workers

Our  partnership  with  FLAG  was  a  great  effort  to

COVID-19, and small restaurant owners in the area 
who have faced losses because of the pandemic. 
On Thursday December 10, 2020, 66 doctors and

organization, and then FLAG used the proceeds to 
purchase  meals  from  La  Marsa  Mediterranean

Beaumont Royal Oak’s 6C and 6E units.
FLAG  of  Metro  Detroit’s  mission  is  to  uplift  and

supporting  local businesses. Throughout the 
pandemic, front line workers have been working 
harder than ever to care for patients. Business 
owners have also been working hard to keep their 
businesses alive amidst public safety concerns. 
Every holiday season, ABC Technologies and

COMPANY WIDE ENERGY REDUCTION CASE STUDIES FOR FY2021
ABC has made significant progress across our operations to 
systematically improve energy efficiency and waste reduction. The 
following case studies provide a sample of the many initiatives we 
have completed that have reduced our energy consumption and waste 
output and generated impressive cost savings.

PCB Material Trimmings, ABC Plant 4 Queretaro, Mexico.
POLYURETHANE COMPOSITE 
BOARD (PCB) MATERIAL 
WASTE REDUCTION FROM 
8% TO 7%
OVERVIEW
On the PCB Line for Load Floors, a significant amount (8%) of raw 
material (such as fiberglass, PU chemicals, honeycomb paper, carpet) 
went into waste. The idea was to reduce each raw material waste and 
decrease the annual waste cost by at least 15%. This waste reduction 
will also have a huge positive environmental impact. Direct & Indirect 
waste for each component material was defined, monitored, and 
calculated, and trainings provided to the line personnel. Trials were 
performed to reduce the Direct waste especially on PU usage and 
changes were monitored to ensure there were no side effects on the 
quality of parts. This resulted in a waste reduction from 8% to 7%.
