UK Simrit facility wins AS9120 for quality management

ERJ staff report (DS)

Lutterworth UK -- Simrit - the industrial sealing products division of Freudenberg Sealing Technologies -- said its Lutterworth, Leicestershire, U.K. facility has been certified with the expanded AS9120 - Revision A quality management system certification.

The AS9120 certification was specifically written by the aerospace industry in an effort to improve quality and assure the integrity of suppliers to the industry. The AS9120 designation requires suppliers to focus on the areas impacting logistics, safety and reliability, and defines requirements for batch and lot traceability, records, airworthiness and evidence of conformance.

The Lutterworth facility provides warehouse and logistics services to key European aerospace customers and U.K.-based industrial customers. Earlier this year, the company's Santa Ana, Calif. facility achieved the AS9100 recertification for product design, further expanding Simrit's global aerospace capability.
