ISO in Action

When Thames Side Sensors Ltd acquired the process weighing load cell assets of Thames Side-Maywood Ltd in 2006, speedy accreditation to ISO9000 for their quality management system and ATEX certification of their product range was seen as vitally important, to portray the quality ethic of the new business and meet the demand from customers for certified load cell products for use in intrinsically safe environments.

After some careful investigation of the certification services available, Sira was chosen as the company’s Notified Body as they offered a cost-effective dual certification service.

Managing Director of Thames Side Sensors, Steven Brown said:
"Three years on, this decision has certainly proved to be the right one. Not only did we achieve dual certification in a record time of three months from commencement of trading but we have also been able to save substantial ongoing costs as the routine audits for ATEX and ISO 9000 are combined in one annual assessment. I would certainly advise companies to seriously consider the dual certification route “
