The certification is another important milestone in MATADOR's history.

What does ISO 9001:2015 mean for you as a customer?

ISO 9001:2015 primarily serves to meet customer requirements and to strive to exceed customer expectations. With the successful audit, we were able to prove that we permanently and sustainably meet the high quality demands of our customers. Flawless results mean that you can use the results of our work immediately and without restriction. The continuous improvement of our work processes is also reflected in the ongoing training of our employees: through training courses, we ensure that our employees are always "up to date".

In short: ISO 9001:2015 ensures that we have comprehensively implemented the principles of quality management in our quality management system and thus achieve continuous improvement of our business processes.
