Testing & Standards

SAS International is committed to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 Standard Statements across the entire group’s facilities: Apollo Park, Bridgend, Maybole and Reading.

ISO 9001 (Quality Management System) certification has been achieved throughout SAS International. It ensures that quality procedures are met and maintained while providing the consistency and improvement of working practices.

ISO 14001 (Environmental Quality System) certification has been achieved at all SAS Manufacturing facilities. An Environmental Management System (EMS) ensures that we reduce our environmental impact of manufacturing processes with regular management reviews.

OHSAS 18001 (Occupational Health and Safety Management System) has been achieved at all SAS Manufacturing facilities. Promoting a safe and healthy working environment has been key to ensuring product quality; the certification provides an independent confirmation of existing practices.

SAS International manufacturing plants recycle all waste products and, as part of a program of continuous improvement, targets are set to reduce the need for recycling. All waste is collected and disposed of using accredited recycling companies where SAS have full supply chain visibility.

Each site has a manager who is solely responsible for implementing, auditing and maintaining production and environmental control systems.
