Topsil obtains TS16949 certification

Topsil is pleased to announce its certification to the international TS16949 quality management standard. The standard originates from the automotive industry, which among others includes hybrid and electric vehicles. The certification is an integral part of Topsil's forward-looking strategy to expand its market position in the coming years.


Frederikssund, Denmark, 2012-12-21 12:57 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Topsil is now quality certified to the TS16949 quality management standard. The certification will open up new markets and complies with large contract customer requests.

”Although our premium quality is already one of our strongest features, the TS16949 certification will further contribute to increasing customer trust in us” Topsil CEO, Kalle Hvidt Nielsen, explains. ”We will expand our market position in the coming years, including substrates sold to, among others, the automotive industry. In this industry, TS16949 certification is central to entering into customer dialogue. If you do not have it, it becomes considerably more difficult to get in.”

He continues ”The TS16949 certification emphasises our overall quality level. It documents our standards, especially in relation to new customers. Furthermore, large contract customers have explicitly expressed requests that we become TS16949 certified. Hence, our recent certification is also an indication of strengthened relations with our existing customer base”.

The TS-certificate covers the DK-based production. Topsil plans to obtain corresponding certification in its Polish subsidiary during 2013.
