Certifications – making us better, day by day<\/strong><\/p>\n

We see certifications primarily as tools for the continuous improvement of our organisation and procedures. \u2018Be good and get better\u2019.<\/p>\n

Although ultimately a satisfied customer is proof of competence, we gladly mention our certifications here. And rest assured, we work very hard every day to convert those certifications into better logistics services! During the past years, we have appealed to \u2018outdoor\u2019 experts, and trained our \u2018indoor\u2019 people, in order to continuously improve our processes, and ultimately our customer value. This was amply demonstrated when interviewing our customers.<\/p>\n

\n

ISO 9001 – continuous improvement<\/strong><\/p>\n

The ISO 9001 standard requires you as a service provider to have the procedures in place for taking account of your customers\u2019 desires in a structured manner when producing your product. Moreover, you must use your customers\u2019 feedback, both positive and negative, as input for continuously improving your products and services. We see and use ISO 9001 as a tool in order to continuously improve ourselves, our procedures and our services.<\/p>\n

ISO 9001 is not a guarantee of perfect product quality. It is and remains a system certificate. But it does give you as a customer, or prospective customer, the confidence that Verkooijen employs the necessary procedures for learning from gained experience, and for delivering increasingly better quality.<\/p>\n

SQAS Warehousing – a route to \u2018becoming better\u2019 step by step every day<\/strong><\/p>\n

The continuous improvement of our services towards our customers, that is the central theme. SQAS Warehousing also forms an effective grip, which we use to get better all the time. We verify the effectiveness of our internal organisation, for example, in a structural manner against the objective requirements, which are defined by the industry.<\/p>\n

In order to guarantee that the transport and storage of chemical goods is carried out safely, to a high degree of quality and in an environmentally correct way, the CEFIC (European Chemical Industry Council) developed the SQAS quality standard (Safety and Quality Assessment for Sustainability).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Assessment system<\/strong><\/p>\n

SQAS is an assessment system<\/strong> that has been developed to determine whether the service provider meets the requirements that are set for the organisation, quality, safety and the environment. The standard aims to be primarily an assessment system, which the client can use to ascertain the status of the abovementioned topics.<\/p>\n

The SQAS standard has different modules. There are separate modules for road transport, tank cleaning, intermodal transport and warehouses. An SQAS-specific questionnaire has been drawn up for each logistic component regarding legal provisions and topics deemed relevant by the industry. It is a system to enable the warehouse to be assessed in a uniform manner by an independent auditor. The SQAS assessment does not result in a formal certificate, but in a detailed factual report, which can be used as a basis for implementing improvement measures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
