Manufacturing
ISO certification for manufacturing companies.
Quality, worker safety, environment and energy: we certify your plant to ISO 9001, 45001, 14001 and 50001 with a dedicated Lead Auditor and a platform that writes the paperwork for you.
Challenges in manufacturing
What makes compliance
hard in a factory.
Production can’t stop for an audit, and paperwork can’t slow the line down. These are the issues we see most often in manufacturing SMEs, and how certification solves them.
Safety on the
shop floor
Machinery, chemicals and shift work make risk a moving target. ISO 45001 turns safety into a routine, with incidents and near misses tracked in one place.
Quality across lines and shifts
Different operators, suppliers and batches create variation. ISO 9001 sets the procedures and records that keep every lot consistent and traceable.
Energy and environmental costs
Energy is often the biggest variable cost in a plant. ISO 50001 and ISO 14001 help you measure consumption, cut waste and answer customers’ ESG questionnaires.
Customer and tender requirements
OEMs, large customers and public tenders increasingly require certified suppliers. Certification keeps you on their vendor lists and shortens qualification.
Certifications and standards
The ISO standards manufacturing companies
need most.
How it works
From the shop floor to the certificate
in three steps.
01
Gap analysis on site
Your Lead Auditor maps processes, machinery and risks on the shop floor and tells you exactly what is missing.
02
System built in the platform
Policies, procedures, risk assessments and records are generated for your plant. You review, we refine.
03
Audit and surveillance
We prepare you for the certification body’s audit and manage yearly surveillance audits so nothing expires.

FAQ
ISO certification in manufacturing: what companies ask us.
Which ISO certifications does a manufacturing company need?
Most start with ISO 9001 for quality. ISO 45001 is the natural next step where machinery and shift work create safety risks, ISO 14001 covers environmental impact and ISO 50001 energy. Aerospace suppliers also need EN 9100. Your Lead Auditor tells you which ones your customers and tenders actually require.
Can we certify ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 together?
Yes. An integrated management system shares documents, internal audits and management reviews, so certifying two standards together takes less effort than doing them one after the other.
Are there grants for ISO certification in manufacturing?
Often, yes. Regional calls, Chamber of Commerce vouchers and the INAIL ISI call can fund ISO 45001 and other certifications. We check which ones your company can apply for before you start.
Will the audit stop production?
No. Site visits and audits are planned around your shifts, and most of the documentation is handled in the platform, so the line keeps running.
How long does ISO certification take for a manufacturing plant?
It depends on the size of the plant and your starting point. Most SMEs complete the path in 1 to 6 months, from the gap analysis to the certification body's audit.
