ISO RECERTIFICATION

Stevens Urethane, a leading global supplier of thermoplastic polyurethane film, sheet and tubing has recently achieved recertification to ISO 9001:2000 following their triennial audit in July 2007 of the Company’s Management System.

Stevens has met standards for the design and manufacture of extruded film, sheet and tubing products at the company’s Easthampton, Massachusetts facility. ISO 9001:2000 is a family of international standards covering various requirements for implementing a quality management system and provides a framework for continuous improvement. Stevens Urethane is one of the few companies in its industry to achieve ISO 9001:2000 certification.

“While we’ve long been recognized as a supplier of quality products, ISO 9001:2000 recertification demonstrates our continuous company-wide commitment to maintaining quality at the highest levels. It gives us a strategic advantage in the marketplace, and assures our customers that we adhere to stringent quality management processes” said Charles R. “Chuck” Tutterow, president of Stevens Urethane.

The evaluation, conducted by ISOQAR, and independent auditor, demanded participation from every Stevens Urethane employee. ISOQAR has repeatedly commented on being impressed with the skills and efforts of Stevens Urethane in developing a very mature quality management system.

Based in Easthampton, Massachusetts, Stevens Urethane manufactures a full range of high-performance urethanes for use in a wide variety of “can’t fail” applications for consumer, medical, commercial and industrial markets. Stevens Urethane is the only company in the world to offer urethane in blown film, extruded sheet, tubing, cord and profile form.
