Crystal IS Receives ISO 9001:2008 Certification
Crystal IS, a leading developer of deep UV LEDs, is now ISO 9001:2008 certified. Crystal IS's high-performance UVC LEDs is based on native Aluminum Nitride (AlN) substrates, Crystal IS's award winning, proprietary technology.
ISO 9001:2008 outlines requirements that an organization must maintain as part of a quality management system. Companies working toward certification must demonstrate the ability to consistently provide product that meets customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. Following ISO standards provides a consistent way to meet customer requirements with a quality management system that is well controlled and sound.
"For Crystal IS, ISO 9001:2008 certification is a seal of approval that our customers look for," said Larry Felton, CEO of Crystal IS. "Certification guarantees our quality management processes are held to the highest standards."
Crystal IS worked with CEG (Center for Economic Growth) to find a consultant familiar with innovative manufacturers to navigate the certification process. CEG is the designated Regional Manufacturing Extension Partnership Center for manufacturing and technology companies as well as the regional economic development and marketing organization serving the 8-county area in New York's Capital Region, headquarters to Crystal IS. CEG's focus is on innovation-driven, technology-based industries that will help regional communities and businesses compete and thrive.
"As part of our mission, CEG works with local companies to position themselves as the most competitive in the market," said Michael Hickey, Interim President and CEO of CEG. "In this case, it was our pleasure to assist Crystal IS in finding a suitable consultant to seamlessly move through the certification process."
