Quality Policy
Fonderie Saguenay’s commitment to quality ensures our clients that the products they receive meet their technical requirements, and are delivered on time and at competitive prices.
To insure the satisfaction of our clients, we at Fonderie Saguenay are committed to improving our quality management process on a continuous basis. To do so, we rely on the involvement of our employees and the know-how of a highly motivated team.
The pursuit of the objectives of this policy underlies all our actions:
• Choice of raw materials
• Equipment configuration
• Casting method
• All other fields of intervention that may affect quality
The efficiency of this policy is regularly measured through audits performed by our clients. This reinforces our determination to maintain a strategy of intervention oriented towards the continuous improvement or our processes.
At Fonderie Saguenay, we proudly believe that this perspective on quality and efficiency enables us to insure the satisfaction of our clients.
Choice of raw materials
All of Fonderie Saguenay’s major suppliers are submitted to periodical control to insure that they comply with our high purchasing standards.
As a result, all pieces cast at Fonderie Saguenay are made with the best materials available on the market.
Equipment configuration
We always build prototypes to validate the design of a new pattern or of a modified pattern. This stage allows us to get the part certified and to establish the compliance of the cast part with the specifications and tolerances provided by the customer.
Casting method
To insure the repeatability of our clients’ orders, each part cast at Fonderie Saguenay has its own, detailed computerized data sheet that contains all the information needed for its manufacture. This information is accessible from many stations in our production facility so that all concerned personnel may consult it.
In addition, our staff receives on-going training to remain abreast of the latest production techniques. This also gives them a special sense of the importance of their role in the pursuit of our quality objectives.
