A SSM announced that it received the ISO 9001 certifications It is EC. According to the company, this shows its commitment to the quality and excellence of the equipment and services it offers to the national and European market.
A European Union is recognized for its strict requirements both for the internal production of its goods and for the import of foreign products into its territory. Due to this requirement, the sale of many items within the EEE (European Economic Area) requires CE certification.
“SSM is the first Brazilian manufacturer in metallic structures who conquers the CE certification. More than a seal, this certification is a symbol of excellence in quality that crosses borders. An extremely important stage in the internationalization plan of the SSM Group”, he highlighted Carlos Bebiano, CEO and Founder of the SSM Group.
More about the EC
This seal certifies that the products have been thoroughly evaluated and meet all EU standards in terms of safety, hygiene, health and environmental preservation.
The responsibility for applying the CE seal lies with the manufacturer himself, who places it on his equipment. In doing so, the manufacturer assumes full responsibility for the compliance of its products with the legal guidelines in force in Europe.
By obtaining CE marking, companies can:
- Ensure compliance with current EU guidelines, allowing the entry and circulation of equipment in this market;
- Increase the quality and safety of produced items;
- Expand the presence and market share of Brazilian products within the EU.
Audited by professionals from the companies URS and LLC, they came to Brazil specifically to evaluate SSM, which met all the criteria and was recommended without any “non-compliance” in its processes, advancing another step towards internationalization.
ISO 9001
ISO 9001 certification also attests to the quality of the products and services offered by companies. It ensures that production and installation processes meet international quality standards.
SSM worked on a robust plan for this achievement, which involved all areas of the company. This plan involved review of strategic planning, training, process review, research, among other initiatives.
“Achieving ISO 9001 reinforced work that was already being carried out by our team and gave us the opportunity to improve our processes. Throughout its history, SSM has always kept in mind that excellence in product quality is a key factor in delivering solutions that meet the needs of our customers”, highlighted Reinaldo Prats Junior, Director of Operations at SSM.
