The Quality Management System is used to enable us to continually improve customer satisfaction, quality performance and our organisation.
As well as conforming to all major quality standards, Sapa has taken a lead in the UK extrusion industry by adopting internal quality systems that meet ever more demanding industry requirements (e.g. for automotive).
We recognise that product and service quality is a pre-requisite in business today. Some of the quality accreditations held across our extrusion plants in the UK are:
