Andover Corp. Achieves AS 9100C Certification

March 12, 2012 - PRLog -- As part of our ongoing continuous quality improvement program, Andover Corporation is proud to have achieved the AS 9100C Aerospace Quality Standard System Certification, known as AS 9100:2009. This serves as an important upgrade to our current AS 9100B and ISO 9001:2008 certification.  

AS9100 was designed to enhance ISO 9001 by focusing on the additional, more rigorous expectations and requirements of the aerospace industry. The certification demonstrates the presence of an aerospace quality system that is both consistent and robust. These qualities are essential to ensure product, process and service safety, reliability and quality.
    

Andover is one of the only companies in its field to have achieved AS 9100:2009 certification. This, in addition to its ISO 9001:2008 certification, ITAR registration, and security clearances makes Andover uniquely qualified to design and produce high-quality optical coatings for the aerospace and defense industry. http://www.andovercorp.com/Quality/
