Automotive products require attentive management, and for us, quality is the main objective. We have always been committed to meeting the most rigorous standards of the sector, and we are proud to announce that we have received IATF 16949 Certification.
IATF 16949:2016 is the International Standard for Automotive Quality Management Systems, and a reference point for the quality management of automotive components and parts supply.
IATF 16949 regulations emphasize the development of quality management systems that focus on constant improvements, in order to prevent faults and reduce waste and variations in the supply chain. IATF 16949 aims at efficiently fulfilling clients’ requirements.
IATF 16949:2016 is a quality system requirement based on ISO 9001:2015 as well as on specific automotive sector requisites.
