Connect Group Czech facility earns med certificate

“The Kladno production plant has for years produced parts for medical devices, for which it boasts an extremely efficient traceability model. The step towards this certification was therefore a not particularly large one. Six months after the launch of this initiative the certificate was there,” the company said in a statement. Besides Kladno, Connect Group already has ISO13485 certification for its facility at Veldhoven (the Netherlands). Kladno obtained the IRIS certificate earlier this year, enabling it to serve the rail industry. Kladno follows the Dutch unit in Veldhoven as the group's second production unit to be awarded this quality label. The Belgian facility in Poperinge is preparing to be the third location to reach this standard towards the end of this year.
