  • Study of world laws and regulations.
  • Unification of product specifications and creation of the YKK Standard (YFS).
  • Performing tests (test methods) and monitoring the level of product quality.

The ISO 9001 standard provides a proven framework to manage the quality that will lead to the production of higher quality products.

            • Continuously improving environmental performance.
