Quality Management

Quality Assurance from scrap to alloying

Companies within Swiss Steel Group have effective quality management systems and hold numerous certificates and approvals, including ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and AS 9100.

Our quality assurance begins with the selection of raw materials from scrap to alloying agents, from melting to casting, from internal, surface, dimensional, and identity checks in the rolling mills and forging adjustments or in the bright steel lines to mechanical and technological testing of samples. All production processes are monitored, controlled, and managed by us.

Through our complete process documentation, we can ensure consistently high quality with reproducible results at all times. Furthermore, based on the latest information and insights, we continuously optimize processes within the manufacturing chain.

Site-specific certifications & approvals

Our locations have specific certifications and approvals that ensure the quality and safety of our products. The site-specific certifications and approvals play a crucial role in our production processes.

Firmly anchored in the rock - Swiss Steel Group’s Top12 anchors secure a new section of road high above Lake Lucerne

100 years – that is the lifetime expected for the new section of the K2b cantonal highway between Vitznau and Gersau following its renovation and modernization. This is made possible in no small part by the Top12 special stainless steel from the Swiss Steel Group, from which the anchors for the retaining wall structure and support elements are manufactured. Over a hundred of these were drilled several meters deep into the steep rock face. They secure the walls and beams that support the new, 350-meter-long section of road. The structure is spectacular not only from a geotechnical perspective but also for everyone who drives over it and enjoys a breathtaking view of Lake Lucerne below.
