RUSSELLS TEAM IS ISO-TASTIC

Burton upon Trent based pioneering pitched roofing manufacturer Russell Roof Tiles is ahead of the game when it comes to safety, quality and reliability.
With factories on Nicolson Way and Wetmore Lane in Burton, Russells is among a handful of organisations in the roofing sector to have transitioned and upgraded to the new ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 standards. The team at Russell Roof Tiles invested six months in the upgrade when the average requirement is to have the changeover complete within three years.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) develops international standards such as and is an independent, international agency with a membership of 165 national bodies. Russell Roof Tiles manufactures on three state-of-the-art-plants, in Burton and in Lockerbie. The firm makes a range of concrete roof tiles and fittings for leading UK house builders, social housing and commercial projects and employs a team of 180 across its sites. Daniel Hancox, Assistant Operations Support Manager at Russell Roof Tiles commented “We’ve worked hard on updating our existing ISO standards to help stream-line our processes and procedures. Our achievement demonstrates that as a business we continue to make quality a priority. This is reflected in our staff who take time to focus on how they can improve products and services for our customers.” Andrew Hayward, Managing Director at Russell Roof Tiles added “Dan and his team should be commended for their efforts and dedication to achieve this updated internationally recognised standard ahead of time.”
He added “It takes continual hard work achieve these certifications which support our ongoing commitment to top quality products and customer satisfaction.” ISO standards help ensure that customers are receiving products and services that are consistently high quality, safe and reliable. ISO 9001:2015 specifies requirements for a quality management system that demonstrates an organisation’s ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, and aims to enhance customer satisfaction through the effective application of the system.
