BBA Certification

»»
YALE DOOR AND WINDOW Solutions is the first hardware manufacturer in the UK to obtain the BBA certification for its window product range .
The BBA certification is an industry recognised symbol of product quality and is distinctive in that all certified products are not only subject to a QA assessment , but also have to pass a full product and manufacturing process . audit every year . This testing includes laboratory-based testing , online evaluation , product inspections , life expectancy assessment , quality management review and training review .
Grant Stratford , Technical Director for Yale Door and Window Solutions , comments : “ Unlike the BBA assessment reports , where the products are assessed once and then no further evaluation is conducted for 5 years , the certification scheme inspects the product and factory on an annual basis . This proves the ongoing consistency of the product ’ s performance and the manufacturing process – giving the end user added peace of mind and confidence in the product ’ s reliability and longevity .
Paul Atkinson , Sales Director for Yale Door and Window Solutions , adds : “ The BBA
certification helps to reinforce the quality of our window hardware and is another example of our continued effort to provide customers with products they can trust .”
