EN ISO 9001:2015 – Quality Management Quality management systems enable us to deliver products and services that meet the required quality standards. They also help us to improve our performance and organisational structures, develop efficient processes and implement changes to make our business stronger and fit for the future. At Blum, our quality management system covers the development, manufacture and distribution of our hinge, box, runner, lift and pocket systems as well as our assembly devices for furniture fittings. The ISO 14001 standard sets globally recognised standards for environmental management systems. In addition to complying with relevant legislation, companies can use an environmental management system to help them achieve the goals set out in their environmental policies. Blum has been certified to ISO 14001 since 1997. Since then, we have systematically improved our environmental performance by expanding our environmental agenda and introducing appropriate measures. Regular audits are conducted to ensure our actions remain both effective and compliant.
