Quality · Compliance

Quality starts with the specification.

How we review your requirement, which quality documents you can expect with an order, and where compliance information comes from — stated plainly, without claims we cannot document.

Our quality approach

  • 01

    Specification first

    Grade, standard, dimensions and tolerances are checked against your requirement before we quote.

  • 02

    Documented supply

    Quality documents issued by the manufacturer are passed on with the order, where supplied.

  • 03

    No surprises

    Any difference between your request and what can be supplied is raised before order confirmation.

  • 04

    Honest attribution

    Manufacturer data stays attributed to the manufacturer — never presented as our own.

How it works

From requirement to documents in your hands.

Quality information follows the order — from the specification you send to the documents that travel with the shipment.

  3. 03

    Order confirmation

    Agreed specification and required documents are written into the order.

  4. 04

    Document check

Mill test certificate

Know what a test certificate tells you.

A mill test certificate links the material you receive to the manufacturer's test results. It is issued by the manufacturer per coil or batch, and is available on request where supplied.
