QUALITY
Due to state-of-the art production methods and a perfectly organised logistics
system, our three production locations guarantee high quality as well as short
delivery periods. Status as a top-class or preferred supplier represents a permanent obligation for ongoing optimisation of the QM system and the skills of
our employees.

ENVIRONMENTAL AND

scope of their qualification with a wide range of very different international
qualification and certification societies.
The integrated management system of the Schmiedewerke Grditz GmbH,
Bochumer Verein Verkehrstechnik GmbH and Bahntechnik Brand-Erbisdorf
GmbH is certified in compliance with DIN EN ISO 9001 and DIN EN ISO
14001 and is being constantly expanded as well as optimised.

For many years now all three locations have been classified as DB Q1 suppliers. Furthermore, in 2010 our plant in Grditz was awarded the distinction
of Outstanding Supplier of the Deutsche Bahn AG. In addition we are holders of authorisations from many European and international railway companies (e.g. SBB, BB, NS, SNCF, SNCB, AAR, NSB) and certification societies
