Certification
ISO Certificate 9001
The international standard ISO 9001:2015 describes the requirements that a well-functioning quality management system must meet. It examines the ability to optimally serve the interests of the main stakeholders. Documented business processes and work instructions, as well as management involvement in operations, must guarantee compliance with the requirements of the organization and relevant laws and regulations. There is a continuous effort to improve processes wherever possible. The ISO 9001:2015 certificate awarded to us demonstrates that our quality management system meets the specified requirements.
ISO Certificate 14001
ISO 14001:2015 is an international standard that sets requirements for an organization's environmental management system. The goal is to control and minimize the risks to the environment resulting from business operations as much as possible. The certificate awarded to us demonstrates that our environmental management system meets the specified requirements and ensures compliance with this system in our business processes.
VCA Certification
VCA stands for Safety, Health, and Environment Checklist Contractors. With the help of this certifiable checklist, a VCA-certified contractor can demonstrate that safety, health, and the environment are managed during the execution of work. Interfilter is VCA certified. This shows that safety, health, and the environment are of high priority to us and that we are safety-conscious during our operations.
Eurovent Certification for Air Filters
The majority of our air filters are Eurovent certified through our manufacturer Deltrian, meeting the highest quality standards. A copy of the Eurovent certificate can be sent to you upon request. Interfilter Group is an affiliated manufacturer member of the Eurovent organization. Do you want to know if a specific product is Eurovent certified? You can see this in the general product specifications or the documentation of the respective filter. Of course, you can also just ask us, and we will gladly assist you!
EPD Certification for Air Filters
We are actively working with our in-house partner Deltrian Nederland to have our filters EPD certified. Our following filters have already been EPD certified:
- Fiberglass: G50 pocket filter
- Fiberglass: SG85 pocket filter
- Synthetic: NWES98 pocket filter
- Fiberglass/Synthetic: RPV85-ES compact filter
The certifications demonstrate the environmental impact of the filters and their sustainability. During the certification process, various stages of the filter's life cycle are examined, such as whether the product is produced sustainably, its lifespan, and whether the product can be reused or recycled after use.
ISO 16890 Certification for Air Filters
The ISO 16890 certification relates to general ventilation filters and confirms their effectiveness in filtering PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 particles, including ultrafine particles (PM1) that are very harmful to health. This ISO standard is a global standard, allowing ISO16890 air filters from various international manufacturers to be easily compared with each other.
ISO 8573-1:2010 Guidelines for Compressed Air
The ISO 8573-1:2010 standard specifies the purity classes of compressed air concerning contamination by solid particles, water (moisture and liquid water), and oil (total concentration of liquid oil, oil aerosols, and oil vapor). In addition to this standard, application-specific requirements may apply that fall outside of this standard. This could be the case in specific health applications, pharmaceuticals, food industry, etc.
WRAS Certification
WRAS is an independent British certification body for sanitary products and materials, helping businesses and consumers choose compliant products that keep water safe. Some of our products are WRAS certified, demonstrating that these products meet the regulations for water fittings and are approved for safe use by consumers.
ATEX Certification
Some of our filters and filter systems are ATEX certified and are thus suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in accordance with applicable ATEX guidelines.
EC 1935/2004 for Air Filters
EC 1935/2004 contains legal rules regarding the contact of food with 17 material groups, such as adhesives, metals, ceramics, cork, glass, plastics, paper, rubber, and wood. The certification demonstrates that with our air filters, the transfer of substances from the material to the food remains within certain tolerances and limits. This prevents the risk of contamination, and the EC 1935/2004 certified air filters within our supply program are suitable for use in the food industry.
Certificates and Standards for the Food Industry
For the food industry, we can supply various filters with specific certifications and standards suitable for safe use. Among others, filters with FDA certification, Good Manufacturing Practice standards, Halal certification, or Kosher certification. It is essential that the filters used in food processing meet certain requirements to ensure the health of both humans and animals.
