Interflex achieves gold standard certification in automotive manufacturing

Interflex is celebrating achieving their latest automotive quality certification from a leading global standards body.

This means that Interflex is now certified with British Standards Institution’s (BSI) IATF 1649:2016, an International Organization for Standardization (ISO) technical specification, which sets out the quality system requirements for the design, development, production, installation and servicing of products related to the automotive industry.

“We are delighted to achieve this certification, which proves our commitment to demonstrating high levels of compliance and improving our processes to prevent defects and reduce unnecessary waste as we strive to create an ever more efficient and sustainable production line and supply chain,” comments Interflex’s Managing Director Jim Griffin.

Demonstrating manufacturing excellence
The IATF 16949:2016 certification was developed by the International Automotive Task Force (IATF) and consolidates and supersedes existing US, German, French and Italian automotive quality system standards to create a truly global industry standard that enables automotive supply companies to expand their client base internationally.

“Another great benefit of IATF 16949:2016 is that it opens additional doors to us internationally,” continues Jim Griffin. “As a designer and manufacturer of sustainable and lightweight materials for the automotive market and beyond, we have a lot to offer to manufacturers around the world. This certification means our valued clients at home and abroad can have faith in our ability to supply them efficiently with the high-quality products they depend on us for.”

Eco-conscious lean manufacturing processes
The new certification is in addition to Interflex’s existing BSI standards ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management) and 14001:2015 (Environmental Management), which also demonstrate the company’s commitment to a streamlined and eco-conscious production process.

Interflex have almost 20 years of experience manufacturing innovative NVH solutions for the motor industry. Recently the company has introduced Ocean, a sustainable and lightweight material that is already being used in the automotive industry. 

Founded over 100 years ago, BSI is the market leader in providing standards to over 80, 000 businesses in 193 countries.
