We are a company that takes its responsibilities seriously. From the sourcing of raw material to the effect our activities and products have on the environment, we work hard to ensure that quality runs through everything we do.
Our manufacturing companies are certified to the ISO 9001:2000 standard, which means they meet the rigid manufacturing, quality management and environmental standards set by the ISO, the International Standards Organisation. In addition to the periodic inspections and audits carried out by the ISO they carry out their own stringent tests to provide additional reassurance to you:
Only materials and parts that have been inspected and are of perfect quality are actually used in the production process.
Every machine that comes off the assembly line goes through a trial run.
Every hundredth machine is completely disassembled and reassembled.
