TFC Europe Ltd has announced that it has achieved AS9100C and AS9120 certifications for the aerospace industry.

Based on ISO 9001, BS EN9100 (AS9100C) includes additional aerospace specific requirements and provides the industry with a standardised set of requirements to help improve quality throughout the supply chain and reduce cost through continual improvement.

TFC states that quality runs through its entire business, not just its products, which is why it has continually invested in the right people to provide superior market knowledge and customer service.

TFC’s comprehensive product range means that the company is not restricted to specific ranges of parts in either standards or specials. All its products can be supported with either ISO, AS or individual OEM approvals with lot traceability certification as required. Its standard product range includes wave springs, Spirolox®, retaining rings, laminar sealing rings, circlips, O-rings, hose clamps, washers, rivets, sheet metal fasteners and stud bolts.

“As a result of these improvements to our business, we are looking forward to enhanced partnerships with our much valued existing customers and to forging links with new clients throughout the aerospace industry.”
