Canotosan Raises Quality Standards with ISO 9001:2025 Quality Certificate
A New Stage in International Quality Standards
As Canotosan, we are proud to crown our 30 years of experience in the commercial vehicle spare parts sector with quality systems that comply with international standards. Our company has earned the ISO 9001:2025 certificate, the most up-to-date quality management system standard, after an intensive audit process.
This new certificate is official proof that we apply the highest quality standards in all our operations, from our production processes to the supply chain, from customer service to after-sales support.
The Value We Offer to Our Customers
ISO 9001:2025 certificate will further increase the benefits we provide to our customers. Within the scope of the new standard:
- Advanced Product Traceability: Full traceability of our products is ensured throughout the entire supply chain from raw materials to the end user.
- Digital Quality Management: Our artificial intelligence-supported quality control systems reduce production errors to a minimum.
- Sustainable Supply Chain: We conduct regular audits to ensure that our suppliers comply with similar quality standards.
- Customer Satisfaction-Focused Processes: All our business processes are continuously improved in line with customer feedback.
Investing in Quality, Investing in the Future
Canotosan Quality Management Director Zeynep Kaya stated the following regarding the certification process: “We have made significant investments in our production facilities in the last two years to comply with the ISO 9001:2025 standard. We have renewed our automatic quality control systems and provided comprehensive training to our staff. This certificate is not only an indicator of our current quality, but also a symbol of our commitment to continuous improvement.”
Within the scope of our investments:
- We established a new generation spectral analysis laboratory
- We renewed our fatigue test systems
- We modernized our environmental test rooms
- We updated our quality management software
Strong Steps in International Markets
ISO 9001:2025 certification is an important factor that will increase our competitive power especially in export markets. Our company, which currently exports to 27 countries, aims to strengthen its presence in the European, Middle Eastern and African markets with this certificate.
Canotosan General Manager Ahmet Yılmaz: “Trust in international markets starts with compliance with quality standards. As a brand that extends from Türkiye to the world, documenting the quality of our products at international standards has strategic importance for us.”
Digital Transformation and Industry 4.0
Within the scope of ISO 9001:2025 certification, we have also accelerated Industry 4.0 applications in our production facilities. Our production lines equipped with smart sensors instantly detect quality deviations and provide the opportunity for intervention thanks to real-time data analysis.
With the Digital Twin technology that we will soon put into operation, we will simulate our production processes in a virtual environment and prevent potential quality problems before they occur.
Sustainability Goals
The new quality management system is also in full compliance with our sustainability goals. Within the framework of ISO 9001:2025 standards:
- We increased energy efficiency in our production processes by 25%
- We reduced our water consumption by 30%
- We increased our recycling rate to 85% by renewing our waste management system
- We calculate our carbon footprint and report it regularly
Training and Human Resources
One of the most important elements of our quality management system is our qualified human resources. We have provided a total of 12,000 hours of quality training to all our employees in the last year. In addition, we have started the “Quality Leadership” program for our young engineers.
Thanks to the “Quality Circles” studies we organize to spread the quality culture to all levels of the organization, our employees actively participate in process improvement projects.
Our Future Plans
Obtaining the ISO 9001:2025 certificate is not the end for us, it is a new beginning. In the upcoming period:
- IATF 16949 Automotive Quality Management System certification
- ISO 14001:2025 Environmental Management System update
- ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System integration
our work will continue.
As Canotosan, we will continue to be the name of quality in commercial vehicle parts and provide our customers with the highest standards of service.
