Certified at top level

The satisfaction of our customers is our most important goal. We therefore place the highest demands on the quality of our products and services. In addition to our quality management system, which guarantees the maintenance of this claim, numerous certificates and attestations from independent testing bodies prove the high standard of our production.

The production sites in Kematen, Unterschleissheim, Prachatice, Urdorf, Yper and Skovlunde are certified in accordance with ISO 9001:2015. The high standards of its quality management system have thus been confirmed by an independent certification body.

The Urdorf, Skovlunde and Ieper sites are certified to ISO 27001. This is an internationally recognized standard for information security management. The aim of the sites is to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information within the Group and to manage risks appropriately.

Card Quality Management

In addition to ISO 9001, the Kematen, Prachatice, Urdorf and Unterschleissheim sites are also certified in accordance with Mastercard’s Card Quality Management (CQM). Card Quality Management (CQM) includes requirements for the quality management system (QMS) as well as industry-specific minimum standards for evaluation and testing processes to be able to assess product and process conformity.

Card Quality Management thus provides the optimum framework for checking and complying with process requirements (ISO 9001 and CQM supplements etc.), product requirements (ISO 7810, ISO 7811, ISO 7816 etc.) and inspection requirements (ISO 10373 and CQM supplements) and is an integral part of the Integrated Management System (IMS).

The “physical security” was confirmed for Kematen and the “logical & physical security” for Unterschleissheim and Urdorf. Production is therefore carried out in accordance with Mastercard and Payment Card Industry (PCI) standards.
