Comprehensive Quality Framework

ISO 3834 establishes rigorous requirements for welding quality management systems.

The part 2 standard covers comprehensive quality requirements including personnel qualifications, implementation of detailed welding procedure specifications (WPS), equipment maintenance and process control specifications, welding inspection requirements, including establishment of comprehensive inspection and testing protocols, and documentation systems.  The certification validates KSMF's systematic approach to ensuring consistent, high-quality welding across all projects.

"ISO 3834-2 certification represented a significant milestone in our quality journey," said Liam Stratford, Responsible Welding Coordinator at KSMF.  "This certification renewal  demonstrates our unwavering commitment to manufacturing products that meet the most demanding specifications while providing our customers with complete confidence in our welding capabilities and our strict quality processes and procedures."
