Achievement of high quality levels starts long before product production begins. Therefore, we define desired standards together with our customers in relationships based on mutual trust.
These standards start with the selection of order-specific steel qualities. The correct combination of steel qualities and mechanical and technological production processes guarantees that the finished product will perform in the selected application.
Of course, defined standards for production, internal sales processes and the handling of inventory and shipping are also an integral part of our quality system.
KVP (~ continuous improvement process) means to us that we continuously question, control and when possible, further improve current methods and processes.
Through this, the quality of our products remains reproducible and also is continuously improved.
These quality standards are an integral part of the Hugo Schmitz GmbH quality management system, which is continuously monitored through external certifications and control audits.
