Buck Systems Approved to ISO 9001:2000
Buck Systems of Birmingham, a member of GEA Pharma Systems, and Europe’s leading supplier of powder handling systems for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, has recently been approved by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance to the quality management standard ISO9001:2000. The approval represents an important step in the company’s process of continual improvement throughout all its key business areas.
The Quality Management System (QMS) is applicable to the supply and project management of pharmaceutical processing equipment including development, design, assembly, test and installation supervision. Stephen Boswell, the company’s, Managing Director, said that it was vitally important for his company to have an independently recognised QMS to provide customers with the level of confidence in the company’s operational processes in this demanding market sector. He also acknowledged the achievement of the staff in making this requirement a reality. “Everyone has worked very hard to build the new operational procedures into their day to day jobs,” he said.
Buck Systems and GEA Pharma Systems are both parts of the P-Division of GEA, Global Engineering Alliance, the highly successful technology group with worldwide sales in excess of Euro 4.3 billion.
