SAFETY PRODUCTS: MAGNUM® ESSENTIAL EQUIPMENT™
Quality control at Magnum is key and new potential suppliers of
products to the UK are ‘pre-assessed’ for suitability and conformity
to Magnum’s corporate standards.
Pre-assessment includes:
• Product Quality: The UK is certified to ISO9001 quality
management standard. Is the supplier also ISO9001 certified or
have in place similar systems to ensure their performance meets
our corporate standards?
• Environment: The UK is certified to ISO14001 environmental
management standard. Is the supplier certified to ISO14001
or do they have in place similar systems to meet our corporate
standards?
• Ethical trade: All prospective suppliers are required to meet our
Corporate Social Responsibility Policy on ethical and sustainable
trade.
• Magnum uses the services of independent third party auditors
such as Bureau Veritas to inspect their supply
chain factories, and interview management
and staff to ensure effective standards are
in place.
• Hazardous substances: A detailed
corporate ‘Hazardous Materials Policy’ is
in place to prevent the use of hazardous
materials/substances in any company
products. New prospective suppliers
must ensure they meet
the requirements of
this policy.
