To help us continue towards these objectives, we recently renewed our ISO 9001:2015 International Certification.

What is ISO 9001

ISO 9001 describes a management model that when applied it ensures the expected quality in the products and services of an organization, having as a main goal customer satisfaction.

The Technical Committee of ISO for ISO 9001 has decided that the review and revision of the standard is an obligation, so as to:

1. Create a common form and language in the standards and allow the harmonization of management systems (i.e. with ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 etc.). In this framework, ISO designed a common structure for all Management Systems standards, which has a common scheme, terms and definitions. (Higher Level Structure).
2. Reduce the demands for documentation by emphasizing to the value of organization and to the customer.
3. Maintain the significance of Quality Management Systems for the market.

The ISO organization attempts a new change in the standards philosophy (ISO 9001:2015), but keeps in its core the 8 basic quality principles and the fundamental approach to quality management: Plan – Do – Check – Act.

Why we choose ISO 9001 Certification:

As a manufacturing organization, we believe that the ability to plan before action, review, and correction, increases the product intelligence and by association, the quality of the product.

The ISO 9001:2015 sets the organizational guidelines at all levels of our operation in order to continuously improve them.
