At Orchid Stealth Orthopedic Solutions, every product we manufacture is delivered to customer specifications and the highest quality standards. To accomplish this, we ensure that these standards are maintained at every level of our organization.
The strongest example of our commitment to quality is our ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 13485:2003 certification. We have been certified to the ISO 9001 American National Standard since 1998 and more recently in 2007 to ISO 13485. These internationally recognized standards acknowledge that we have developed and implemented effective quality systems throughout the entire production process and that these systems are continually maintained and improved.
To guarantee that we meet or exceed our customers’ requirements, a material specific process is developed for each product. Inspection procedures and material tests are designed to make sure that each product is dimensionally exact and that the highest attainable mechanical properties are achieved.
Every employee at Orchid Stealth receives comprehensive training and the resources they need to perform at the highest level. Employees are encouraged to participate in process improvement teams, where workers from every stage of production work together to make sure that we continually improve our products and provide more value to our customers.
Our Quality Policy is our promise to you: “Complete customer satisfaction through responsibility, integrity and commitment to excellence in everything we do.”
