ISO 9001 quality assurance
Quality is a keyword for all our products and services: It is an entrenched part of our business philosophy and of everything we do. We define quality as the sense of security that is created when we achieve a balance between the client’s expectations of our products and services, and their experience of these.
ISO 9001 is a certified quality system that supports us in achieving our quality objectives. At the same time the system ensures that we continually develop and deliver our products and services with a high uniform level of quality. Our quality assurance system includes training programmes, which help ensure that our staff are committed and well-trained and that they can and have the will to provide a professional service adapted to the needs of the individual client.
Evidence of high quality level
ISO 9001 is visible evidence of the fact that we work on a daily basis to ensure a standardised and consistent quality for our products and services. No matter if it is product development, raw material procurement, production or customer service, our goal is consistently to improve quality standards - in your best interests.
The best indoor environment with Indoor Air Comfort GOLD
Eurofin’s Indoor Air Comfort is an innovative certification scheme that attests to a product’s compliance with Europe’s low VAC emission requirements. The GOLD certification is the highest level in the scheme and guarantees compliance with all legal specifications issued by EU authorities regarding emissions. The certification also meets many of the voluntary specifications regarding emissions that are required by relevant labelling schemes and similar specifications in the EU. GOLD-certified products thus have the best available low emissions, and all carpets from Ege Carpets are naturally certified at this level.
EPDs document the life cycle of carpets
The life cycle of carpets can be documented with EPDs (Environmental Product Declarations), which contain environmental information about a product and its use. An EPD makes the product more transparent for consultants and developers to compare the environmental impacts of different products.
EPD is a voluntary product labelling scheme that describes the full life cycle of the product and provides the data basis for environmental classification of buildings.
You are welcome to contact us if you would like an EPD for your carpet.
Life cycle analysis with BRE certificate
The BRE certificate documents how much the carpet impacts the environment. The British consultancy firm BRE Certification Ltd. prepares environmental profiles that make it possible to list all building materials in a universal measurement system which describes the environmental impact of the materials throughout their lifecycle.
These environmental profiles enable architects, interior designers, buyers, etc. to select carpets with good environmental characteristics.
The BRE certificate provides information on the environmental characteristics of the carpet in relation to a series of pre-defined requirements. Points are awarded to carpets if the manufacturer has succeeded in using low-impact materials at every stage of their life cycle. BRE certification is stated in the individual carpet product specifications.
Low impact on the outdoor and indoor environment with LEED
LEED certification was developed by the U.S. Green Building Council, which works to promote sustainable construction worldwide. LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environment Design, and the system gives architects, designers and buyers a concrete measurement of the design and product characteristics of building materials.
The LEED system covers all stages of a building’s life cycle, from design and construction to renovation. Buildings built in accordance with LEED consume resources more effectively than other buildings and ensure a healthier indoor environment that is not significantly impacted by the building materials. LEED certification is stated in the individual carpet product specifications.
