Ilium Composites re-certified to ISO 9001 standard for quality management
Rigorous evaluation process brings quality assurance to Ilium’s customer service offerings and range of fiberglass composite reinforcement products.
Ilium Composites (Hidd, Bahrain), a global manufacturer and distributor of fiberglass structural composite reinforcements, has recently been re-awarded ISO 9001:2015 certification in recognition of its ongoing commitment to quality assurance for its range of products and customer service.
The company underwent a rigorous evaluation process from the certifying body, TÜV Middle East (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates), involving assessments of its quality management systems (QMS) and audit of its processes and subsequent compliance — all of which passed successfully. Ilium Composites remains committed to providing the best customer service for users of its range of fiberglass reinforcements from testing, purchasing, to ongoing technical support thereafter. According to the company’s website, more than 15,000 tons of composite reinforcement is produced and sold to customers annually in the transportation, construction, recreational and alternative energy industries in the Middle East, U.S., Europe, Asia and to developing markets including Brazil.
“The team at Ilium Composites are proud that everyone’s efforts in creating a confident business model with sustainable and trustworthy products has been recognized with this latest accreditation,” Colin Leatham-Locke, business development manager at Ilium Composites, says. “Our products are customizable and feature-rich, with surface finish that leaves customers with a versatile, innovative and high-quality fiberglass reinforcement product range.”
ISO 9001:2015 is internationally recognized as the Standard for Quality Management, credited to more than a million businesses and promoting dedication to quality, costs and productivity. The accreditation of Ilium Composites brings assurance to its customers that the products they
purchase have been made to the highest standard and come with a guarantee of process overview and product support. In addition to international recognition, ISO 9001 certification is expected to aid Ilium Composites in its journey to build network relationships, increase efficiency, as well as grow its customer base and satisfaction.
