Triple Accreditation
One of the UK's Few Triple Accredited Precision Pressings Manufacturers
When quality, compliance and supplier reliability are critical, accreditation matters.
Pre-Met Engineering is one of the relatively few UK precision pressings manufacturers to hold
IATF 16949, EN 9100 and ISO 14001 accreditation simultaneously. This rare combination demonstrates our ability to support customers operating within automotive, aerospace, defence and advanced engineering supply chains while maintaining a strong commitment to environmental responsibility.
Achieving and maintaining three internationally recognised standards requires significant investment in systems, training, auditing and continuous improvement. For customers, it provides confidence that quality management, traceability, process control and environmental responsibility are embedded throughout our organisation.
Why Triple Accreditation Matters
Many manufacturers hold a recognised quality standard. Far fewer maintain internationally recognised standards covering automotive quality, aerospace compliance and environmental management simultaneously.
Modern supply chains demand more than competitive pricing. Customers increasingly need manufacturing partners that can demonstrate:
Proven quality management systems.
Consistent manufacturing processes.
Full traceability and documentation.
Robust risk management procedures.
Continuous improvement programmes.
Environmental responsibility and sustainability.
By maintaining IATF 16949, EN 9100 and ISO 14001 accreditation, Pre-Met provides independent verification that these principles are supported by audited management systems rather than internal claims.
For organisations operating within highly regulated industries, this helps reduce supplier risk and provides valuable reassurance during supplier selection and approval processes.
IATF 16949
Automotive Quality Management
IATF 16949 is the globally recognised quality management standard for automotive manufacturing.
The standard focuses on defect prevention, process consistency, risk reduction and continual improvement throughout manufacturing operations. It is widely recognised throughout automotive and mobility supply chains and is often a key requirement for suppliers supporting OEMs and Tier One manufacturers.
For customers, IATF 16949 demonstrates that Pre-Met operates robust systems designed to deliver consistent, repeatable manufacturing performance.
EN 9100
Aerospace and Defence Manufacturing Standards
EN 9100 is the internationally recognised quality management standard for aerospace and defence manufacturing.
The accreditation places particular emphasis on traceability, risk management, product conformity and operational control. These requirements are essential within industries where reliability, accountability and precision are critical.
For customers, EN 9100 provides confidence that Pre-Met maintains the disciplined processes expected within demanding aerospace and defence supply chains.
ISO 14001
Environmental Management Systems
ISO 14001 is the internationally recognised standard for environmental management.
The accreditation demonstrates Pre-Met's commitment to responsible manufacturing, resource efficiency and continual environmental improvement. As sustainability becomes an increasingly important factor in supplier selection, ISO 14001 provides customers with confidence that environmental performance is actively managed throughout our operations.
The Benefits of Working With a Triple Accredited Manufacturer
Choosing a triple accredited manufacturing partner helps reduce supplier risk and provides confidence throughout the procurement process.
Customers benefit from:
Enhanced traceability and process control.
Reduced operational and supply chain risk.
Strong environmental management practices.
Enhanced traceability and process control.
Compliance with automotive and aerospace expectations.
Continuous improvement embedded throughout the business.
These advantages help customers build more resilient supply chains while meeting increasingly demanding quality and compliance requirements.
