Solar Atmospheres Southeast receives ISO 9001:2008, AS9100C certification

Greenville, South Carolina – Solar Atmospheres Southeast has successfully completed AS9100 / ISO 9001:2008 certification – the premium quality system standard for companies operating in the aerospace industry.

 

The AS9100 quality standard was established in 1999 from the desire of leading businesses and organizations in the aerospace and defense industries to identify quality suppliers. AS9100 encompasses the entire current version of ISO 9001, as well as specific requirements addressing well-known problems related to the aerospace sector.

 

Solar Atmospheres Southeast certification is the culmination of a five-month effort that was fast-tracked at the request of several current and prospective customers. With this assessment completed, all of Solar Atmospheres’ commercial vacuum heat treating and brazing facilities are now AS9100 registered.

 

President Steve Prout notes, “The successful certification of our South Carolina facility is a testament to our commitment to continual improvement, and to growing our business within the aerospace industry. We are excited about the opportunities this certification will allow and the added confidence it provides to our customers.”
