Recently, the company häwa GmbH, manufacturer of cabinet and enclosure systems, has obtained the quality management system certificate according to the worldwide valid standard DIN EN ISO 9001:2015. The certificate which covers the locations Wain, Bad Wörishofen, Crimmitschau, Duisburg and Maintal will be valid until the end of 2019 and will be controlled annually through an authorized certification body.
The quality management standard ISO 9001 is the most popular and recognized standard in the quality management (QM) at national and international level. Certification according to ISO 9001 is possible for companies and organizations of all sizes and in all industries and forms the basis for a continuous improvement process of the company's internal quality management system (QMS).
The standard ISO 9001 specifies the minimum requirements to a quality management system, that must be implemented by the company in order to meet the customers' requirements as well as further requirements for product and service quality. An essential principle of the standard ISO 9001 is the process orientation. A process-oriented quality management system accompanies all essential operational processes and puts them to the test.
Arno Müller, manager of the company häwa GmbH comments: „With the extensively revised modification to the new standard, the quality control and the continuous process improvement continue to be the focus of our company, which means that we can react even more quickly and flexibly to our customers' requirements at a constant high level of product quality.
