This provides customers with a high level of trust in the services and products of ISO certified companies. Conserval went through a stringent evaluation process that reviewed the development and operation of the integrated quality management system; this includes documentation review, gap analysis, internal audits, the enactment of a preventative / corrective action program and customer feedback program. All of these developments coalesce to enable continual improvement and ensure consistent quality for the customer.
The ISO 9001:2008 certification validates Conserval’s commitment to quality for the supply of custom engineered (SolarWall®) solar air heating and hybrid PV/thermal systems and solutions for commercial, industrial, institutional, military, multi-residential and agricultural applications.
