Certification

ISO 9001 is a quality management system designed to reduce errors and improve our service. Quality of service and products has been critical to our operation ever since we began. 

FS Cables has been a registered company with Quality Certification since 1996.

ISO 14001 provides a framework for reducing our environmental footprint through a range of measurable improvement actions.

OHSAS 18001 is an Occupational Health and Safety management system designed to highlight our impact on health and safety issues, as well as help to reduce the risk of accidents.

FS Cables offer a Government backed national vocational programme offering each apprentice the opportunity to study ‘on the job’ for a QCF (NVQ) level 2 qualification.

While they study, the apprentices undergo a rotational development programme, spending between one and three months in every department – from sales, purchasing, accounts, marketing – right through to warehouse and export.

FS Cables are importers and distributors of products that qualify as articles in the REACH regulations; we are therefore not required to register these products.

As the products we supply under normal conditions are not intended to release substances we are not required to submit a registration for the chemical substances contained in these articles.

We will continue to monitor our supply chain to ensure that all products manufactured and supplied by FS Cables are fully compliant to the REACH regulations.

The Construction Products Regulation (CPR) covers the fire performance and other aspects of various products used in construction.

Suppliers (manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors) will have to declare the fire performance of a cable designed for use in buildings.

This will be graded from class A to F.

Our current efforts will ensure that our products will meet the CPR regulations when they are enforced on the 1st July.
