ISO Certified
Our Commitment To Quality
Mid-States Aluminum is ISO 9001:2015 certified. The quality management principles defined in the ISO standards are used in the daily operations of our company to remind us of the need for customer focus, while involving every one of us in improving our company’s performance.
We regularly follow APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning), PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) and similar processes for new product introduction, validation and documentation. As part of our normal process we create control plans and control charts that are used to guide design and production.
In addition to our own quality standards, we work hard to incorporate all customer-driven standards into our process. We believe that customer satisfaction must be a collaborative effort.
