From the beginning, Akkuplanet has worked with a renowned seal of quality, the ISO 9001 standard. This standard is integrated in the company’s own in-house quality management system, which is even more comprehensive. Thanks to this integrative-action quality management, customers experience a value addition and the certified safety increases customer satisfaction. Akkuplanet has been successfully certified according to the latest version of the ISO 9001 standard since 2006. This is also the case in 2022, when the positive certification from TÜV Rheinland was also obtained. Furthermore, Akkuplanet is expanding its effective process management even beyond the legal standards. Regular analysis of risks and opportunities for the quality management system and for Akkuplanet itself are in place to ensure that the desired results are achieved through the QMS.
