trans-o-flex CEO Martin Reder:“Certifications are an indispensable part of our quality strategy”
Express service provider has received new certificates for pharmaceutical, quality, environmental and security management: GDP, ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and TAPA FSR C 2023
(PresseBox) - The companies of the express service provider trans-o-flex have once again successfully completed several certification processes. “In the recertification for ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, we passed all the audits without any major deviations,” reports CEO Martin Reder happily. “The certificates were therefore extended unconditionally for a further three years for trans-o-flex Express, ThermoMed, Logistics Service and ThermoMed Austria.” In separate processes, compliance with the EU’s Good Distribution Practice (GDP) for pharmaceuticals was also confirmed. The GDP certificates are valid for two years.
trans-o-flex had its quality management system certified for the first time in 1995. Certification in accordance with ISO 14001 followed in August 2010, with the first GDP certification achieved later the same year. “Certifications are an indispensable part of our quality strategy,” Reder continues. “They enable us to continuously improve our processes and document our quality externally.”
The ISO 9001 standard specifies requirements that companies must meet to consistently provide high-quality products and services and satisfy their customers. ISO 14001 aims to minimise a company’s negative environmental impacts and promote their sustainable development. The certification body BSI Group audited all trans-o-flex companies over almost two months to verify their compliance with both standards. GDP certification was performed by the certification body TÜV Süd. All new certificates are available on the company’s website.
In addition: TAPA certification for greater security
Alongside GDP, quality and environmental management, trans-o-flex has also been certified in accordance with the TAPA FSR C 2023 security standards at two further network locations. This means that six locations have already been newly certified according to the strict TAPA standards this year.
Background: In order to prevent costly losses due to damage, theft or other criminal attacks on valuable freight, the shippers’ association Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) developed the particularly demanding FSR security standard for the handling of high-risk consignments. FSR stands for Facility Security Requirements and also covers, for instance, the video surveillance of distribution hubs. “By means of the TAPA FSR certification, we are increasing the security of our freight and reducing insurance costs.” Precisely because sensitive goods are part of trans-o-flex's core business, Martin Reder believes “the security of our goods along the supply chain makes a significant contribution towards our business success.”
This year, TAPA FSR C 2023 certification has also been planned for our Bruchsal, Hanover and Koblenz sites. In total, trans-o-flex will then have TAPA certification for all four locations in Austria and 23 locations in Germany.
