We are proud to announce our attainment of the prestigious ISO 9001 certification. This milestone is a testament to the company’s unwavering commitment to quality, continuous improvement, and customer satisfaction.

ISO 9001 is an internationally recognised standard for quality management systems (QMS). It provides a framework for organisations to improve efficiency, ensure consistency, and enhance customer satisfaction by meeting customer and regulatory requirements. Achieving this certification demonstrates Victorian Sliders’ dedication to operational excellence and their ability to consistently deliver high-quality products and services.

Throughout 2024, Victorian Sliders embarked on an extensive project to meet the rigorous standards of ISO 9001. As a fully integrated manufacturing business—from design to final delivery—this achievement required a comprehensive review of all business units, standard operating procedures, and best practices.

The project was spearheaded by Quality Manager Andy Thomas, who worked alongside a dedicated team of colleagues to bring this ambitious vision to life. Reflecting on the journey, Andy Thomas said:

“This is a complex project, with a huge amount of work involved to achieve the international standard of ISO 9001. We were only able to succeed thanks to the commitment and dedication of the entire team, and I cannot thank them enough.”

ISO 9001 certification offers numerous benefits to Victorian Sliders and their customers. It ensures consistency, efficiency, and continuous improvement across all operations, enabling the company to maintain the high standards their customers expect.

“This accomplishment reinforces our position as an industry leader,” said Jason Powell, Operations Director for Victorian Sliders. “It demonstrates our focus on delivering superior products and services, while continuously striving for operational excellence.”

The ISO 9001 certification may be Victorian Slider’s first ISO accreditation but it certainly will not be the last. In addition to ISO 9001, Victorian Sliders have also secured both  BS EN 1279: 2018 - Glass in Buildings Insulating Glass Units and BS EN 12150: 2015 – Glass in Buildings Thermally Toughened Soda Lime Silicate Safety Glass accreditations.

Their dedication sets them apart in the PVC-U sash window industry, ensuring that their customers receive top-tier quality and service. The company remains dedicated to innovation, sustainability, and excellence as they look to the future.
