ISO 9001: 2015 CERTIFICATION
Since our beginnings, Válvulas Saval has considered product quality as a fundamental axis in the production processes and as a source of loyalty for our clients. For this reason , since 2008 we have maintained a quality management system in compliance with the requirements of the ISO 9001 standard in its different versions.
API Q1 CERTIFICATION
Our commitment to our customers is our priority, for this reason Válvulas Saval implemented and maintained from 2013 to 2016 a quality management system that meets the highest standards of the oil sector industry, by complying with the requirements of the API-Q1 specification, accredited by the American Petroleum Institute (API).
The API-Q1 specification establishes the minimum requirements for the development of the quality management system for manufacturing companies in the oil and natural gas industry . In its ninth edition, it adopts more than 85 additional requirements* to those established in the ISO 9001:2008 standard. However, with the 2015 edition of the ISO 9001 standard, both standards are practically aligned, so we decided to make the transition to an ISO 9001:2015 certification.
